Default Painful NSV

I didn't make it to the gym today, so I figured I'd rollerblade to school and home instead (it's about 25 min each way) -I usually walk, but this was a way better workout 'cause there's a lot of hills. Well, turns out I didn't look at my break pad before I left, and it was worn down completely. Instead of slowly breaking at the bottom of a hill I went flying and got nasty road rash up my leg and on my hand. I got to class and was talking to a girl I know there when she said (in a totally nice/joking way - not mean at all), that my falling was karma for being so much fitter and healtheir than everyone else and making them all feel bad! It was so wierd to have someone call me really fit and healthy! I guess I still don't see myself like that, so it was pretty cool having someone else say it. Anyhow... I'm gonna go put some polysporin on my road rash!
