diet Coke (aka Elixir of Life) aka Snow Day! pt. 3

[justalurkr]

So, according to wise members of my flist, I have been verra verra lucky on the diet Coke front, in that two or three 12-packs have been sitting in my trunk throughout this unseasonable cold snap (if it goes below 0F, Celsius people, it's Too Damned Cold;) and so far none have exploded. Oh, I've sipped through some cola slushies, but nothing go boom.

So far.

I'm assuming that now that exploding diet Coke is on the table of my consciousness, my clean trunk days are numbered.

In other news, will need to limp down to the lawn and collect some snow in a baggie for my "skinned knee," which chose last night as a fantastic time to swell on the left side and ache to the right. I keep thinking "no sharp pain" means "nothing broken," but then when I found out about my crack elbow, I was actually there for a painful foot, which turned out to be okay.

Can there be a magic or technological miracle that allows us to be, like, 12 whenever we take a tumble so the bones are nice and limber but we don't have to go through the tweeny drama otherwise?  Middle-aged bones are for the birds, and I've been taking my calcium!

I hope your knee is okay.

Our receptionist slipped on the ice today while trying to clean off her car in front of her house and BROKE her leg!! The ambulance had a hell of a time even getting to her house. The roads are awful here still.

I would like 12 year old bones as well! Or a better sense of balance, maybe. :)

Congrats on getting the car home though! How many days do you think it will be until things are back to normal?
