How do I wind up essentially disabled, lying in the sun, getting dehydrated to the point of the potential for some real trouble?
Washing my god damned bicycle. In my own driveway, on a nice summer afternoon. I'm gonna have to make up some exciting tale of derring do for my five and three year old grand daughters if I'm still hobbling around next time they see me. Any ideas would be appreciated.

I met a real estate agent several years ago that was in a cast. She was a neighbor and chatty. I asked what happened. She said "I did it skiing". I reply something like, yikes, did you hit a tree or land wrong off of a jump? She said "no, my husbands skis got caught in mine coming off of the chair lift". I told her to come up with a better story. You'll come up with something :-)
