This is what I get for cutting the cat's nails on the porch

I just took a nasty spill off the porch while reaching for my cat over a rusted-through railings. We're talking a fall of 6 feet across and three feet down, a fall that caused me to vomit all contents from my stomach and to breathe funny for nearly an hour. I think I'm okay, although I'm sure the ribs and the shoulder are bruised a bit. Good thing I don't have to pitch batting practice until Tuesday. OUch.

I might, but I think I'm okay. My ever-cautious roommate would be the first to visit a doctor if needed, and she says it's okay for now. Just feel a little beat up.

you have no idea if you can't catch your breath because you're winded from the fall, or if you've broken a rib that is ever so slightly jabbing at you lungs.

Doctor.
