Top month

Posted in Life, Self-indulgence at 3:43 pm by alby

I love December. It’s a month full of wonders.

Highlights include it being cold, it being wet, it being dark, crappy Christmas music in every shop, crappy Christmas lights outside every lower class filth’s house for a month, and no doubt more I can’t be bothered to think about any more.

Last year I had a good trip to South Africa and returned to a burgled house.  Clurb had her bike nicked as well.

This year P&C have had a brick thrown through their window and I’ve now managed to get myself a fracture at my elbow (radial head).

Really not best happy.

Bad end of year.

————————————–

Edit:  what happened:

I was standing on the end of a rola-bola facing some people whilst chatting.  Someone then stood on the other end in an attempt to balance the board.  The first I knew about it was when I went flying and landed on my left arm.  It did hurt rather a lot but I didn’t think anything was broken as my hand didn’t go numb.

But this morning I made it to work but couldn’t put any pressure through my left arm.  One of the doctors I work with more or less insisted I go to A&E.  Quick trip there and a couple of xrays later I have confirmed fracture.

So now I’m off work at least 3 weeks.  This is seriously annoying.  I have teaching to do.  I’m supposed to be interviewing next week.  And patients won’t be getting seen.  Until it’s mended I can’t drive either.

Damn.

    I asked about interviewing but the boss says no.
    Apparently she doesn’t want them to think we make people come to work when they have a fracture,
