Had a nice fall Wednesday, December 16th, 2009 by Nick

I think that’s how the joke goes. “See ya next fall!” Or something. I think I’m missing a part.

Anywayyy, I took quite a spill outside the theater this evening. It felt like slow motion & I guess I put my hands down, but in my mind it felt like I was just falling flat on my face. Thankfully I was with the sweetest Chinese reporters who babied me way too much & kept asking if I needed to go to the hospital (absolutely not that bad- no matter how much I whine), which is actually just the right amount of babying for me. Most of the visible issue is the nastiness of my ring finger/nail, which I held with a paper towel for a while before someone found a bandaid. Tonight I reverted back to age 7 when Nick poured hydrogen peroxide on my cuts. (only after I searched the apt. to no avail for the blue non-stingy cut cleaning stuff I know I bought once-nick wouldn’t allow that stuff anyway. No pain no gain I guess.)

Funny thing is, it’s my knees that are killing. They feel tender and smashed. I don’t know how to describe it. Even aside from the lumps from this fall, I’m remembering that my knees are pretty funny looking on a good day. Kind of lumpy, and this spill isn’t helping.

Just thought I’d share. I think I was due for a good spill. It had been a while for me. Also, Nick has a love for China, and today after the interview I wanted to understand Chinese & go to China. Add it to the list!
