I figured out the bruises

[cjsmith]

My tendency to bruise easily leads to occasional minor mysteries in my life. Lately it's the outsides of my upper legs.

For several days I thought the car accident must have jostled me harder than I'd thought. But no; NEW little bruises kept adding themselves to the constellation.

Took me until last Friday to figure it out. They're from climbing over the handbrake.

Oh dear. At least the unusable door on my car is the passenger door. So I can get in and out with no problem and I just tell other people we'll have to go in their car. (Hmmm ... maybe I shouldn't get it fixed ... saves a lot of gas that way....)

I get mystery bruises all the time. I thought it was just me! I bump into things and I'm so fixated on whatever I'm doing at the time that I don't notice it. Then later I find a black-and-blue mark or a scrape or a cut and say Where did this come from?! It is indeed very disconcerting.

I'm glad you figured it out! Hopefully you won't have to be climbing around in the car for much longer!

Nope, it's not just you! We're both members in good standing of the Mystery Bruise Club!

The insurance guy comes tomorrow morning at 8am. To my work. For all I know, they'll take the car away right then. I don't know what I'll do after that.
