yesterday in the early AM I dove off my bicycle head-first into concrete and broke my skull
just a little bit though. on the left side of my head. and my brain is a little bruised but within a month it will heal and I’ll be fine.
I don’t remember any of this though, I was knocked out immediately and stayed unconscious for a couple of hours. woke up in the hospital drenched in my own blood like “what. the. hell. now. what.”
lessons to be learnt are the following:
-wear a helmet. get a non-ugly helmet and just fucking wear it.
-when you’ve had a few drinks and it’s like 4 AM and your friend has a broken leg and you REALLY wanna take him home on the back of your bike, even if he says it’s a bad idea, which just makes you even more enthusiastic about proving to everyone that you in fact CAN ride your bike despite your current state… just don’t. don’t do it.
