bang – that’s my shoulder

I should be posting my workout log, but something happened at the end of my rainy ride: I crashed and dislocated my shoulder.

OUCH!

My left hand slipped off the brakes and I headed toward a wrought iron fence. Not wanting to impale myself, I stuck out my left arm to arrest my fall, and… well, the rest is pain and a useless arm.

sprite drove me to the ER, my shoulder is set (but very loose – I popped it out this morning trying to doff a shirt, then popped it in again very painfully), and I have Percacet for the pain. I’m home, in a sling and swath, and am a bit miffed with myself.

I doubt I can ride for a while – boo! So we’ll see what becomes of the century ride. I see an orthopedist later this week, so I can only hope I mend well.
