Zebra crossing ;)

A zebra X-ing :)

My altercaton with a motor vehicle

So, there i was... doing the responsible thing by catching a cab home from work a couple Fridays ago! The cab had to do a U-turn to make it's way towards my humble abode... i hadn't even been in the cab a minute and we hadn't moved more than 10 meters when all of a sardine some drunken arsehole comes flying down the road and slams into the back of us. The whole thing happened so quickly, i don't really remember how i got hurt but a couple seconds after the impact i realised something was wrong. A friend of mine came running over and pulled me out the cab, took one look at my head and rushed me off for ice... by this stage i was curious as to what all the fuss was about, i put my hand to my left eyebrow and damn... i had inherited a golf ball!!!

Taken at the hospital, just after the accident

The paramedics arrived and decided i needed to visit the hospital just to ensure there was no internal head injury so i got my first ride in an ambulance... was a little bummed though, there were no sirens or lights, i was obviously not that important. The doctor did a once over of my head, had a giggle about the size of my golf ball and a laugh about the fact that i was off to a wedding the following day looking like Quasi Moto... hehe!

The next morning... getting ready for the wedding

My accessory at Tristan and Jackie's wedding!

Anyway, 2 weeks down the line and i still have a black eye that would rival any black eye given by Mike Tyson. I'm actually quite proud of my shiner.... pretty good for a first attempt! :)

2 weeks old... looking like permanent make-up!!
