the corner office

Today was the first bike ride of 2012. I didn't really want to, but I overcame laziness, the cold and the prospect of Bromley Hill on the return leg and bravely set forth.

In return for my trouble I ended up with 12 stitches above my eye, a head in bandages and one eye swollen almost completely shut, and a broken right hand for good measure. All thanks to a patch of oil on the road.

On the up side, I don't have to worry about getting tetanus for a few more years.
