...you know the caustic guy in the wheelchair?
Unfortunately I was in another car accident yesterday and will confined to a wheelchair for a while.
I was driving to work yesterday morning and was passing an intersection not more than five blocks from my house. There was a car ready to turn north (his blinkers were on) and the light was green. As I drove through the intersection, this turning car was plowed into from behind by a vehicle that had failing brakes and that propelled the turning vehicle into mine. My car did a 180 dgree turn and was totally demolished.
I was rushed to the emergency room (cute EMT's!)and spent the day there (cute doctors!). The diagnosis was that I had shattered my right heel and might have to undergo surgery. After visiting the orthopedist today, I was told that no surgery is required, but I'll have to retain this splint on my leg for a while and keep my weight off the problematic foot.
I'll be returning to work on Monday, spewing my acerbic comments in a wheelchair.
I plan to attend the BWW benefit provided that Joe's Pub is wheelchair accessible.
