Formula for whiplash sans a car

1 Snowy, wet, slippery day
+ 1 overexcited lighthouse tourist
multiplied by 1 pair of worn plastic Crocs
raised to the power of a large concrete slab
Equals a slip, fall, and bonk on the head.

I woke up this morning with a nasty case of whiplash, as well as swollen arms, legs, and rear end. I wish I could just watch reruns of Law and Order all day. Unfortunately, I don't have a TV, and I DO have a 3-year-old.

Apparently Samantha saw me fall, and exclaimed, "Oh, no! Mommy, you okay?" When I got back in the car, considerably colder and very wet, Samantha started crying and saying that she fell down, too. What an empath :)

Empathy is an emotional intelligence. Are you okay? I wish I could take her for the day for you and you could recover in peace. :)

I'm okay, just really sore :) Oh, and tired, too. I had to drink sugar all day to stay awake!

I know this is off the subject, but I can't get Paul's blog to come up. Has he changed it? Love, Mom

How about:

Denise + pebble = fall and broken ankle.

The square root of œ∑´å߃†¥¨ˆøπ“åß∂ƒ©˙∆˚¬…Ω≈ç√∫˜µ≤≥≥˚∆∆¨˙¶§∞¢™™ª∂∆¬¬ˆß∆˜π¬≥≤≥÷‘«æ

...and a curb = Denise's short hospital stay.
