"The reformer has enemies in all those who profit by the old order, and only lukewarm defenders in all those who would profit by the new order, this lukewarmness arising partly from fear of their adversaries, who have the laws in their favor; and partly from the incredulity of mankind, who do not truly believe in anything new until they have had actual experience of it." - Machiavelli ||||||

i was ridin along on labor day on my bicycle (mountain bike sounds better right?) and some big tractor trailer came from behind and the wind and the noise scared me and i swerved and hit the curb and took a little flight over the handle bars. first two days after i couldn't really use my right arm and i had this wobbly tooth and a gash in my lip. well, the tooth fell out on Wednesday, i kept it - its on my shelf. the scraps are mostly gone from my face - G_d bless neosporin! and the gash in my lip is finally closing up - it turned out that what i was least worried about - my lip - is the last thing to be taken care of - i just kept opening the gash back up cause you know how you can't help it when there is a cut or something in your mouth - it's like a magnet for your tongue. impossible almost! but i think today it is sealed shut and just will need a couple more to reshape itself back to normal. :)
