  1. Most of my stitches are out of my face. It turns out I had a lot more than I thought I had.
  2. 1400 words on my accident: http://log.valhallaisland.c... Warning: it begins with a slightly gory photograph.
  3. Typing on a real computer for the first time in 10 days. Difficult with the hyper-sensitivity in my left hand but just give me time.
  4. Overwhelmed by the amount of genuine love and support from people in all parts of my life.
  5. @aaronspence blog post forthcoming with a least one terrible photo. Looks like at least 3 weeks off work.
  6. In the transit lounge waiting for Mum to pick me up. Finally getting out if this horrible place after 9 days.
  7. I will elaborate later but I can't say enough about how amazing @kristinjohnson_ has been through this ordeal.
  8. David Attenborough's voice is sublime. It's incredibly soothing. He could tell you anything and you'd love it. He's chosen the right field.
  9. Guy that normally watches shit across the hall is watching an Attenborough documentary tonight. Good ending to a solid recovery day.
  10. That's a Lance Armstrong quote that has been running through my mind these last few days.
  11. Pain is temporary. It may last a minute or an hour or a day, or a year, but eventually it'll subside & something else will take its place.
  12. Thankyou everyone for your Twitter well-wishes. It all makes a big difference.
  13. @cbdbug Dont remember tr accident (or the time surrounding the accident) at all. Apparently a car failed to give way in West End.
  14. As time passes the hospital feels less like a life raft and more like a prison.
  15. Had my first (almost) independent shower this morning. Felt great. Feel good today. Hopeful for discharge tomorrow.
  16. Today had not been a good day. Feel like I've taken a step backwards. I know I just need time.
  17. Got hit by a car while riding last Saturday. 7th night in hospital tonight. Not dead. Just dying to get out of here. Recovering strongly.
  18. @kristinjohnson_ reminds me I didn't stop driving until graduating. That makes it around 9 months, not a year. We regret the error.
  19. Just realised I've been no car, bicycle-only for a year now. Love riding more than ever.
  20. My transportation answer for families: bicycles with trailers, motorbikes with sidecars.
