Well, That Was Fun
Dec. 14th, 2011 08:58 amWe're having meetings in the Loop today and tomorrow, so I got up early to catch the Metra train. I was expecting to have some fun, because it's raining. I didn't anticipate quite how much fun.
After I boarded the train, I was walking down the aisle toward the back of the train, looking for a seat. And after crossing into a new car, there was a downslope.
I fell. And I appear to have a mild ankle sprain.
Some of the other folks helped me up and I sat down. I can walk, although it isn't a great deal of fun. And fortunately, I still had a pass for the shuttle bus which had rides left on it, so I didn't have to try to walk across the Loop in the rain.
Overall, this is not a good way to start the day. I expect it will get better.
