injuring myself like a drunken fucking idiot


 My knee after being cleaned up


My now filthy tracksuit top


 Some scratches on my face after being cleaned up


 My swollen lip after cleaning


My bloody nose just after l got home

I had a bit of a mishap yesterday evening, purely my own fault, as l am a fucking idiot.
I had been working overnight, and then in the morning, and called round to see Joe afterwards.  From there, l went to The Wine Bar, where l was pleasantly surprised to see Fred, as l had passed by a military funeral at Hipswell earlier in the day, and thought it could have been his, as he has cancer, is not well, and he used to be high ranking in the army.  I ended up staying out with him and others, and as l am trying to behave myself and not drink and drive, l left my car and decided to run home.  This may have been the slight flaw in the evenings entertainment, as l fell over about halfway home and pretty much landed on my face.  I obviously leapt back to my feet again with the reflexes of a meerkat and foolishly decided to carry on running, resulting in a second fall, with pretty much the same result.  What a drunken buffoon you may be thinking, and you could well be right, but that was not all.  When l eventually arrived home in my bloody and scratched up state, I went upstairs to clean myself up a bit, and then fell down the stairs.  It was like a one man display of top notch stupidity from start to finish.  The FPO had been house sitting at her parents while they are away on holiday, but we went to Richmond today to buy some books for my nieces birthdays, and she was openly laughing in my face at my cuts and swollen lip. I can't say l blame her, as l look like daffy duck at the moment.  My current injuries are:
Both knees scratched, swollen and sore
Both shoulders (and my bum) are sore from falling down the stairs 
Both hands scratched trying to halt the forward falls
Large scratches on my left cheek (plus it's swollen)
Scratches on my nose, and lip, plus my lip is swollen
Two scratches on my forehead, plus one small dent in my skull (again), and another cut on my scalp (again)
It's a good job my nose had already been broken playing football, and l am indestructible.  This sort of thing would have been the death of a lesser man.
Next time though, l'll order a bleeding taxi.
