was at a 2 day conference last week in the hunter valley. was fun, minus the fact i fractured my thumb! anyway, after the morning session on Thursday a few people where kicking the footy around and i went for a catch and managed to catch it on my thumb, plus a full 180 tumble. anyway it felt sore but i just figured i'd ice it and no worries. thanks to lovely nicola and reception i bandaged it and thought nothing more. well, actually i had a rather large night as darth vadar at the work ball, most of which i cannot really recall.
[insert images here... once i get the PC ones sorted out!]
apparently highlights of the night that i attended include;
- winning poker match at someones villa and taking everyones money out the door with me
- being told i couldn't take my glass with me from someones cabin, cracking the shits, sculling the drink, rolling the empty glass across the floor, calling everyone bitches and then walking out and slamming the door. ghetto!
- finding a 'shortcut' from one party villa to another. my suite does attest to this bush bashing adventure so i believe that story at least
- jumping around to house of pain as darth vadar
anyway after a 3am finish (according to realiable sources), i awoke without a hangover! had a massive breakfast and then went to 3 hours of sales bla bla bla meetings. went to the golden grape for lunch. everyone stumbled onto the bus's back to Sydney but i had a lovely weekend planned for lb and i + friends. anyway driving myself back into Cessnock in a manual car i couldn't help but notice my hand was not getting better and in fact it was feeling worse. so when i saw the hospital sign i couldn't ignore the sign (literal or otherwise) so I swung by. 1 hour latter i had enough x-rays to make my hand glow in the dark, a new brace strapped to my hand and a good weekend ahead. and wasn't it lovely! check out the place we stayed at.
the hunter valley trip is ohhh so adult contemporary but my massive night made the weekend all even out so i still feel around 25 :) the place is very pretty and it was a lovely weekend away. was like a 4 day holiday! great food prepped by rice and monkey nuts (in joke).
so come today it was off to see my local GP x-rays in hand. turns out i need to see a specialist, if this becomes costly i'm stuffed cause i'm already pretty tight for Europe. i should really get workers comp sorted or something cause this could be a lengthy injury :/
oh and check it out... this was post hospital when the swelling had actually begun to go down!
nasty!
