The unbearable weight of gravity...

The painful bit is that I was very close to my office (actually, that's a lie, the painful bit is my hip...). I'd just stepped off the bus, managed to cross two icy and thinly gritted streets and get about 20 metres down another icy and thinly gritted street towards the office where I'm now working... and then it all went tits up. Or rather I went tits up. Only my tits aren't that impressive and they didn't offer much cushioning for my fall, y'know? A number of Québecers were walking past me on the way to work. Did anyone of them stop and help or offer words of sympathy? Of course not, although that's probably because they were all having enough difficulty staying vertical themselves. My sincere apologies go to the middle aged woman I very nearly took down with me when my arms flailed around in desperation... you were very wise to swerve out of my way.
