copper

We went skiing today. I did two runs, both green. It took 5 hours. We didn't take breaks, that's just how much I fell. I think I'm gonna be black and blue tomorrow. Surprisingly for as many times as I fell on my hip, it really hurts to sit down. And I may have pulled a groin muscle, and a calf muscle. And I think my knees are all bruised too. As a man wiser than I always said, "I'm getting too old for this shit."

Did you wear a helmet? At least you survived!!!

And, you were fairly spry at the pizza joint, yesterday. It was really good to see you guys.

Ouch, sounds painful!

if by spry you mean "hobbling around like a gimpy 80-year-old woman" then, yes, I was spry.

And no, I did not wear a helmet. and I only skied into a tree once. That didn't leave any bruises. The one on my knee is looking quite intriguing now...all blue and brown and yellow...and it's all sorts of circular (looks like a bullseye). Wait, isn't bullseye bruising a symptom of the plague or something?

Sounds remarkably like my experiences with Snowboarding...

That's why I stick to snowshoeing. Much more difficult to injure oneself.
