So this last Wednesday, I had a little accident. Was letting my dogs outside and I ended up falling down the stairs. Thankfully my boyfriend was home and I wasn't alone. I was knocked out and he had to call 911. Fire rescue and paramedics came and transported me to the hospital. After every scan and xray known to man, I went home early Thursday morning with a broken nose, bumps and bruises and a concussion. I was very lucky I didn't lose teeth or break my neck. Extra lucky I wasn't alone when this happened.
So I can't drive yet and I haven't been working due to the concussion. I'm seeing a doctor tomorrow for my nose and severe dizziness. Nausea has subsided thankfully but I still feel and look like poo. I have carpet burns on my nose and forehead and 2 black eyes. Needless to say, I miss tanning lol. I'm hoping I can start hitching rides to get my color on, but even then I'll have to keep my face covered with a towel because idk what the rays will do to my wounds. This kills me because I love a dark face!
So yeah. I have a feeling I'll be posting a little more on the forum lately purely out of boredom since I won't be working for a little while, I'm guessing. Will find out more from doctor tomorrow. Be careful on or near stairs kids! Maybe I'll get the nerve to post a pic of my battle wounds tomorrow lol. Until next time, c u!

Thanks :-)!
A good friend and I typically msg each other through the day but she's been tied up doing something else. And my boyfriend is having to work late. So in between dizzy spells and headaches, it's been a TV and Girl Scout Samoas kind of Monday. I feel like a slug!

I've fallen down stairs probably 4 or 5 times in my life. I'm horribly clumsy on them, which is weird because I'm pretty well-coordinated everywhere else, wear high heels nearly every day, etc. Fortunately, I've never broken anything, aside from my ego haha. Anyway, hope you feel better soon!

hope everything went okay at the doctors! as everyone else said hope you feel better soon. I am extremely clumsy and always seem to be falling down stairs, walking into things, and developing new bruises so i can definitely sympathize.

Dr. said to stay out of work at least until the 20th, when my recheck appt is. This dizziness is crap though - I can tell you that! I want to tan bad, as I feel like I'm fading fast, but I'm a little concerned about the pink areas on my forehead where I had carpet burn and it's now flaking off. I'm guessing it's probably wise to keep it covered but I miss my dark face lol.
Anyways, thx for the well wishes!

Oh my goodness, you poor thing!!! I'm so glad that your boyfriend was there to call 911. I really hope you will continue to recover. I would be more worried about getting my recovery on than tanning. You can always use sunless in the mean time. Here's to a speedy recovery dear!

Thanks!
My Dr. has now extended my leave of absence from work through the 2nd. But I finally drove for the first time since the fall yesterday. Thankfully I did fine! Going to get my nails done today and will pick back up on tanning Monday. Can't wait! Yay lol!
