We're in a "nomadic" period at work, meaning that our offices are unusable because of the half-assed job done by the folks who renovated them three years ago, necessitating all sorts of repairs. That means we pretty much just take our laptops and set up shop wherever.

Today, I decided that "wherever" would be the student center, and after grabbing a cup of coffee, I attempted to head upstairs. After realizing that the elevator was out of order, I went to the stairs and promptly tripped, falling onto the mid-stair landing and smashing my left ring finger against the stairs.

Guess who's now got a splint on his finger? Fortunately, a co-worker was able to give me a ride to the Dr., so I could at least avoid a two-hour commute just to get an X-ray. I'm home now, but will be back in my non-office tomorrow.

Annoyingly, the splint makes typing a royal pain. I wish I were more of a hunt-and-peck typist. Or that I could avoid words that require "a," "s," anything else in those columns, or the left shift key.

Oh, and as the subject line says, I managed to not spill the coffee. I mean, I've got ten fingers, but I only had that one cup. One has to prioritize.

ETA: I did manage to get my wedding ring off using soapy water before the finger got too swollen. So no circulation issues, at least.
