...and Monday struck!

The thing about walking to work is that one doesn't get into car accidents.

The thing about walking to work is that one is likly to wipe out - and I did so spectacularly this morning!

You see, shoes these days are not made with grippy soles. They're likely to be fancy and slippery - and although I never wear heels, they're still not the best thing to approach a steep slope in.

So this morning, a few steps from my front door, I slipped, went down on one knee and the top of my foot, and scraped a good deal of skin off both. And tore a hole in my favourite pants.

Back home it was to change and apply Detol to the scrape, then limp down to work. Great. Just great.

It wasn't sore at first, but now it's on fire.

Monday has struck. Hard.
