i went down, fairly hard

so i'm headed to work lastnight, riding across the williamsburg bridge no problem, when all a sudden a pedestrian steps to thier left directly into my path, i hit the railing to avoid hitting them, i don't really remember much after that, then i was in my friends back yard getting cleaned up by my former med student boss

end results is my fork and front wheel are kinda destroyed, my left eye is still mostly swollen shut, i'm missing large chunks of skin on my arms, my shoulders are all swollen, my tounge is swollen(i guess i bit it going down) and my knees are so swollen i can barely walk. i'm just really sharing for sympathy, also i can't really leave my apartment. additionally there was a guy, i don't remember what he looked like outside of having a pretty nice beard and his bike was grey, he helped my carry my broken bike to my friends place and offered to call an ambulance, so thank you to that guy

but nothing broken, i should have gotten stitches in a few spots, we used butterfly bandages and the bleeding eventually stopped,,,,, some days you eat the bar, someday the bar eats you
