speaking of bike crashes

The other night I hit the front of a parked car and flew up onto the sidewalk and proceeded to scrap my leg up, and mess up something inside my back and my left arm pretty bad. I don't want to over-exaggerate, but I'll just say that if I had health insurance at this time in my life, then I actually would've gone to the doctor, because my arm was all fucked up. Despite the stupid number of bad bike crashes I've been in, with exception of the time I had to get rushed to the hospital for staples in my head, I've never felt like going to the doctor. Maybe I'm getting older or maybe my body breaks easier. Good news though, because after five days or so, I regained (almost) a full range of motion in my arm. It still hurts like hell, but I feel confident that I didn't break anything now. The craziest part is that my elbow bone on my left sticks out even more than it did after I fell on it at Chaos in Tejas two years ago. My back also still hurts a lot, but I'm sure that will go away after a while.
So you're probably wondering how I crashed into the front of a parked car. Drunk? Yeah, but that wasn't the reason. I was trying to practice riding my bike with no hands . . . and with my eyes closed.
I'm a fucking idiot.
