Thank you, no really, I appreciate it. Thanks so much for knocking me on my ass. Literally.

During the hellish morning commute yesterday, after being drenched with rain and suffering a spontaneous attack by umbrella (my umbrella turned on me), I was knocked down the subway stairs. There I was walking down the stairs from the N to the 4/5 when a girl behind me, who was rolling a heavy shopping cart thingie, promptly let it go, causing it to rocket down onto me and knocking me flat on my ass 4 steps lower than I had been. I've no doubt it would have been further, but you see, those were the last 4 steps of the staircase.

Yesterday was a no good terrible very bad day.
