Well, my encounter with the aloe plant wasn't without consequences, but
I'm not as bad off as I feared. Sprained wrist, I think, bruised
handbone, sore shoulder, but all really minor. Of all my klutzy injuries
this year, this one was probably the least traumatic.



(Comments that ascribe some sort of deep-seated desire to harm myself, or
suggest I might be being punished by god for hanging out with pagans, or
encourage me to take herbal remedies to improve the alignment of my chi,
or anything along those lines, will be publicly ridiculed. I'm having that
kind of day)

That explains the "aloe is the new banana peel," remark at least!

(a) Owie! *smooch*

(b) Knowing your pals, I think it more likely that you'd be punished by pagans for hanging out with god...

May I recommend aspirin (which is based on herbal remedies) as an anti-inflammatory? Or any other anti-inflammatory / painkiller of your choice? Or ice (later to be substituted with heat)?

I'm sorry you got hurt, I'm glad it wasn't worse, and I hope you feel better soon.

Thank you, dear. Aspirin is definitely my friend. Tylenol and Ibuprofen have never done jack for me. I'll try to remember to be good about ice/heat. I tend to forget.

What exactly happened, here? Did you slip on a slimy aloe leaf? Or trip over a potted aloe, or...? I was thinking it was the former, just because that's how people get injured by banana peels.

Anyone who would read this post and conclude that you have a secret desire to harm yourself is a fool. Also, any God who would punish you in such a way just for your choice in friends is no God of mine!

Hope you feel better!

I slipped in cartoon-character fashion on a big slimy aloe frond.

Girlness, you didn't tell me about this! I could have brought you some aventurine and bloodstone to tape to your injuries! ;)
