Broken Face...

Yeah, so I broke my face.

On Friday I was subbing for the elementary school PE teacher. About noon I was racing a couple of third grade girls on their warm up lap. There is no way to put this where I do not sound like an idiot, but I ran, full speed, into a horizontal pole right at eye level.

The next few hours are all a bit spotty (I remember about two minutes out of the next six hours or so), but I ended up spending the night in the hospital. I was sent home on Saturday with a diagnosis of two fractures around my eye socket.

In addition, I had one hell of a black eye.

I am now on at least two weeks strict bedrest. Due to swelling I have not been able to wear my glasses for the past four days and, as a result, I am pretty well blind. This means no television, no reading, no computer. It has been frustrating, to say the least.

Anyway, if I have been out of touch this past week, that is why. Feel free to contact me on my cell phone if you need to get ahold of me.
