Dirtbike gear doesn't fare well against asphalt. I got terrible road rash - possible surgery Wed to get the rest of the debris out. Also a broken finger, and possibly a fractured elbow. Awesome times. Not.
Holy shit.

Confirmed: broken right pinky, fractured left elbow, puncture wound and heavy road rash to left forearm. Light road rash left shoulder and rib cage (very light abrasion from the gear). Light rash to right forearm (again from the gear). Both palms heavy rash (lots of missing skin from where the gloves look like they melted).
Thankfully no damage to the noggin, but my helmet got some pretty good scrapes.

So here we are 1 week later...
Full movement back in the left elbow, I can actually make a fist with my right hand. No painkillers since Wednesday, and showers aren't excruciatingly painful anymore (but they still sting).

All morphine did was make me cold and sleepy. Is that what is supposed to do?

That, and make you relive the civil war. Apparently, my grandfather (when he broke his back) and his roommate had quite a conversation about several battles as though they had seen them in person. He was only 82 when he passed two years back.

On a brighter note, I found a good place to work out. Everything is fucking expensive in this city, but they're willing to work with me and it feels a lot like my old school.
