So I tore the ligaments on my thumb (left) last night, running to get on a tube and getting caught in the closing doors. As I lept onto the tube I Iooked up at the digital board to see that I was getting on the right train. Because I wasn't looking at the tube, I didn't notice the doors slamming shut on me (and catching my thumb). The nice passengers already on board pried the doors open. I think this partly goes to show Londonders do care, and partly goes to show that no one wants half a body bleeding all over their tube carriage.

The net result being that I was in A&E at 7am this morning for the third time in as many months for my 4th x-ray. They're going to give me my own parking spot soon.

I'm a walking frigging disaster area.

What are you like? If you wanted to see the cute doctor again, couldn’t you have just asked her out?

I do not have Munchhausen’s Syndrome.

Anyway no cute doctors or nurses this time. And just got lectured for not taking pain killers.

This is why I never do anything but saunter in the most casual way for public transport. It can only lead to woe.

So you think I could not injur myself sauntering? I reckon, I could saunter staright into an injury no problem.

At the moment I’m surprised you even leave the house… and should you be running on your injured ankle??!

Well yes, of course I shouldn’t be running on my injured ankle. If I was like “smart” or “intelligent” or “not a complete imbecile” that would be good advice. But then if I was any of those things I probably wouldn’t get caught in tube doors.

Chuckle.

Oh, lovey…Was it the full moon that set you off?

Hope all is well soon. Please be careful. You are far to handsome to be injuring yourself in this manner.
