Soaking It In

So I did have to go get checked out to make sure I didn't break anything by falling hard a whopping 3 feet or so. News flash: I didn't break anything. But I did get to spend the morning at Sisters of Mercy getting x-rays and anti-inflammatories so alls well that ends well. They managed to check me out and tell me I was fine without ever actually touching me. Anyone else find that odd? Made me a little self conscious...like do I smell? Have a flesh-eating bacteria no one has told me about just yet? Unsightly body hair?
Yesterday was my first day off in 9 days, so it was not only necessary at that point, it was close to vital. I was broken and TIRED. Yesterday afternoon four of my friends and I went up to Hot Springs, NC for an hour soak in, well, the hot springs. It was worth the $10/person. We had enough time to change into dry clothes and skip on down to the Brew n' View to watch Ben Stiller's "Night at the Museum" which I had no inclination to see except it cost $2 and goes well for a dinner and movie situation. Funnier than expected. Back to West Asheville to drop off some of the troops before a discussion of what next. After debate, we headed to East Asheville to the Root Bar to play some much-hyped rootball. Rootball is like a mixture between horseshoes and bocce and is very addictive, even though it seems to be something formulated out of two dog chew toys and a horseshoe pit. Awesome.
All in all it was a wonderful last free Saturday til October. Ugh, that's nuts to say.
