....I HOPE YOU GET THIS, I DISABLED MY CHIP AND WE INVENTED A TIME MACHINE TO SEND MESSAGES THROUGH TIME SO I HOPE YOU GET THIS. UH OH! GUARDS ARE COMING GOTTA GO!

Die Dirty Dog of a Troll!!!

[Tax-chick]

Oh, no! I hope they can put everything back the way it should be!

[Monkey Face]

I hope your injuries heal fast! Folks get really stupid in the rain, and PS is no different. Be good to yourself while you’re healing.

We used to have some property at OSORC, and spent every available weekend there.

[sionnsar]

Ouch! Hope the recovery will be quick...

Believer in helmets ever since my Vespa was rear-ended in a hit-and-run ca 1970; knocked me into a pile of torn-up concrete.

Have my mid-year review at 8 with American boss, German boss, and both their boss. Gulp — first significant review since I got this position.

[Not A Snowbird]

Break a leg!

Oh, wait. That was me.

[Monkey Face]

Break a leg!

(Ooops! That was Sandy!)

:oþ

[Not A Snowbird]

Hi, ‘Face!

[Monkey Face]

I’m sure sorry to hear you had to dump your bike. Lots of chocolate and kitty hugs should help you heal faster.

How much damage was done to the bike?

[sionnsar]

LOL!

I'll try not to. Bad enough to be hobbling around on a bum foot.

[Monkey Face]

You’ll do just fine!

(I’ll say a little prayer for you.)

I went down and looked at it yesterday. The crash bar is scraped and twisted, the throttle controls are trashed, a couple lights hanging off, various scrapes and scratches. Could be worse, I was barely moving when I clipped my husband's saddlebag with my engine guard and got thrown onto the shoulder of the road. That stretch of road has a nice, wide, grassy shoulder. Only my right leg appears to have hit asphalt, the rest of me tumbled on grass.

My helmet has a beautiful gash from where I slid under the guard rail.

[Monkey Face]

My friend dumped his bike 10 years ago. He got clipped at an intersection, while he was waiting for the light to change in the left turn lane. He is just now trying to get the bike fixed. It’s mostly cosmetic, but it’s still spendy.

I’m glad the helmet has the gash and not your head! Helmets can be replaced: Sandy can’t!! {{{Sandy}}}

You should have heard my mother-in-law. We were staying at her place while we were out at the Hog rally, so she returns home to find a message from Ron that I’m in the Gray’s Harbor ER. She showed up and fussed over me, then turned to Ron and chewed him out for not wearing a full helmet when he rides.

It was pretty funny from my vantage point (flat on my back, staring at the ceiling lights.)

[Monkey Face]

LOL!

Fear does that to Moms. We get really stupid when the relieft washes over us and we realize what COULD have happened. So we take it out on the next of kin!

[Not A Snowbird]

Well, off to the shower. That should take an hour or so.

[Monkey Face]

I hope you feel better!

Hang in there!

[sionnsar]

You’ll do just fine!
(I’ll say a little prayer for you.)

Thank you! A slightly rocky start when my American boss wasn't in the office, then my German boss calls my cellphone -- but in no time we were all in teleconference and it went extremely well from there. It's still a strange job, but they're happy and I'm having fun, so it's all good.

[sionnsar]

Well, off to the shower. That should take an hour or so.

Ugh. Hope the hot water holds out. Get well...

[Monkey Face]

:o])

[sionnsar]

Yup. But now I should probably go do a bit of what they’re paying me for.
