It had been a bad day after a string of bad days. The high point of the day had been a nap, and I hate naps. The other high point had been a grilled cheese sandwich, and I’m glad I enjoyed that because it turned out to be the only meal I had all day.<\/p>\n

It took another minute to realize that the recycling container had clobbered me on the way down and was still on top of me. And it took several more minutes before I managed to roll myself over, maneuver myself to my hands and knees, and finally stand up.<\/p>\n
