I slipped and fell in the shower today, ask me anything...
I hit my head and used my ribs to absorb the impact of the fall when they hit the edge of the tub... so one hell of a headache and very sore ribs is the plan of the day for me. How is everyone elses day?

1. Did you land on a can of hair spray?

2. Did you break your ribs?
A better question. Are you sure? Really really sure?

8. In the immortal words of my father, whenever an accident occurred,
"You should be more careful!" He invariably says that, after assuring himself that no serious injury occurred.

12. Owwww! I hope you're ok.
You don't have a concussion do you? A month or so ago my granddaughter did the same thing. She didn't hit her head but she caught herself with her knees before her ribs hit the edge of the tub. She had bruised knees and sore ribs for about a week. She learned not to sit a bottle of shampoo on the bottom of the tub, that's what she fell over. I'm still :scared: just thinking about it and remembering the sound of her falling. I hope you feel better soon.

22. Now see, when they say "jump in the shower"
They don't really mean JUMP in the shower. Come on. :P I feel your pain. I have bruised my ribs more than once. It hurts to breath, move, laugh, and hiccups are a fucking nightmare.

24. I would have told you earlier, but did not know you were going to remake...
"Footloose" in the shower. Get some ice and put it in a bag, one for your head and one for your ribs. It will help. Also Advil, it is better for bone pain, and swelling.
