I’ve got two broken wrists and a microphone

Posted by: jason

Dictated to my wife since I cannot type right now-

Last week I was involved in an accident resulting in a head wound, shattered my left wrist and both broke and dislocated my right wrist. This was really disappointing as I was scheduled to attend Blog World in Los Angeles the next day and missed the opportunity to meet several other Boarding Area Bloggers.

This will make going through airport security much more entertaining-setting off the alarms and having to explain all the metal screws and plates inside my wrists!

Right wrist post surgery

The reason I wanted to tell all of you this is that my posts may be a bit more infrequent during the rehabilitation process. I still have the entire Africa trip report to write up along with a few stops in Europe.

I am in great spirits and look forward to an eventual full recovery.
