“Luckily I'm an Athlete”… I think.

I got this quote from one of the other bloggers that I usually read. I thought of this quote yesterday when I went snowboarding for an evening session.

I took two big falls one was off one of the long boxes there. I usually warmed up to it as the evening progresses but last night I was just pumped to get on it. Big mistake, I got on it just perfectly the box was long so as I was gladding on top of it everything was fine. I get to the end of it all I have to do now is decide whether to drop or jump off of it. well I jump off of it, so I got more height, the box was imbedded on the snow so as I gladded on top of it I got higher and higher. That height plus my jump put me about 12 feet in the air. Everything would have been fine if the landing was a little slanted to take some of my weight and distribute through out the slope. Well it was flat and hard, I fell hard. I hit my butt, right above my tail bone and the whiplash drew my head to the hard snow. I saw starts for a second, man made snow sucks; I sat there to give time for the pain to go away and to recover. I laid there for about five minutes, I got up and I kept riding. It still hurt but not as much so I sucked it up and just kept riding. I went on another box I fell again, that fall wasn’t bad, but me being hurt previously it made it sting a little more. I took it easy after that, and just did smaller stuff.

Well it is the next day and it hurts like hell. It hurts just sitting down, it hurts laying on it, it even hurts when I sneeze, I just hope I didn’t break anything. I have to drive home to see my family since my sister just had her birthday so driving isn’t going to be pleasant for my rear end. Maybe I should invest in some health insurance, that would probably be smart but since I hate doctors and hospitals I think I would just be wasting my money. Well heading home, taking my law book so I can catch up with the reading I hope I can recover from this since the broadcast predicted a snow storm tonight.
