Guten Rutsch!
9 years ago
General
Well, I wasn't sure when/how/what to say on this one since I'd had a good run there for a bit, but sadly, I must report that I have not escaped the last death throes of 2016 as it tries to claw its hold onto all of us one last time into the new year ^^;
Yup, new incident to report and a new cast to go alongside it
Just after Xmas I went and landed myself in some trouble, after Mana went and got outside we had to go find her, she's gotten a little more adventurous of late
So, no, lol, before you say it, this is not a story that ended with me climbing a tree and falling out
Nope, no climbing whatsoever, at least on my part, instead Mana had tried to play Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, just swapping hot for cold-and-covered-in-snow on our neighbors aviary shed-thing
And while Jeri's trying to see if she can get the darn girl, I'm trying to cajole her with treats
The next part even I'm not sure what happened, whether Jeri spooked the poor cat, whether her weight shifted it, or just some inevitable force decided it was my time and Mana leaps off the roof and I get a face full of snow
So, long story short?
Our habit of removing all possible snow to avoid any chance of slip related injury conversely ended with me landing with no cushion
Left arms currently out of commission, stuck with the full thing in a big cheery red and green cast, decided at least I'd finish the year on a festive note, lol?
And I guess all's well that I got most of the holidays past without injury, for like one of the first Xmas I can remember in ages that went by without a cast on, so yeah, could have been worse
I'm more unhappy with the bruised butt and bruised ego I think, lol
Xmas itself? I'll give proper journal after, lol, along with the comic journal I promised too XP
As for the title?
As a friend tells me, Guten Rutsch is the German for Happy New Year, but it LITERALLY means... Well, you guys can google, lol, the relation to myself should be obvious XD
I'll see you guys after the bells, but, until then, take care and I hope you all have less eventful holiday happenings!

Thanks for the well wishes though, lol!
But like you said, at least you were spared for the holidays. Here's hoping 2017 treats you well!
Eh, it was a good run and I'm feeling better on the arm anyhow now =B Here's hoping we all have a better 2017!
Eh, I did well for a break between breaks, so I'll be happy what time we got =B
On other Christmassy news, Rifftrax has found a Christmas special from a Kansas City clown show.

At least you had a good long run out of cast. I hope you heal quickly!
I saw this previously and actually had to shout Jeri over to ask her if I could have the same cast pattern, she promises me nothing, lol
And don't worry, I'm already trying not to use the sling - with mixed success, lol - so I'm looking to bust out of this cast as soon as I can =!
Fun fact, the German version of "Break a leg!" asks you to break your neck as well, sooo... No more German for you! :p
Also, doesn't Cat on a Hot Tin Roof feature a broken leg instead of an arm? Just promise us you won't try again to get it 'right' next time.. XD
Aaaaand yeah, the neck one I luckily didn't know of, so let's keep it that way, lol, glad to see my German got some use anyhow!
Thanks for the wel wishes, hope this is a good year for you as well! =B
