My nerves are oddly ajitter today. Last night, I decided to enjoy the unseasonably warm weather by going for a bike ride; I wound up wiping out and landing in almost exactly the manner in which I broke an arm, more than twenty-five years ago. No harm done, save for mild abrasions (I'm glad I was wearing a helmet; then again, I always do), but the near-miss injury had me tense. My confidence was rattled to the point that I decided to walk the bike the last few bocks home; I was walking past a dark flight of steps- when some guy I hadn't seen suddenly spoke into his cell phone right by my ear, scaring the willies out of me. Home; tea; bed. Now, I hear a parade passing by my window; I suspect that this means it's time to get out of bed, and make my way to Park Slope. Wish me luck.

It's amazing how much a small fall can rattle one's nerves. Heck even doing something at the beginning of the day like breaking a glass sets a negative tone. Hope it gets better.

Why in the world is there a parade? And a band? Does this happen often?

My apartment mate muttered something about "three kings"; apparently, it's some sort of twelth night (day) celebration of the Wise Men. *shrug* Quite a high frequency of parades here, though.

Glad to hear that you didn't have any major damage. But I can see how it can really rattle you. Too bad the weather will keep you from getting right back on the bike.

Anyways, good luck with whatever it is that you need luck for!

Yeah; now, it's raining too much to even think about it :(
