I have an owie on my elbow

Yesterday I went on a wee daytrip and I was definitely greeted with surprises. First: I saw an eichörnchen. Twice. Or maybe it was two different ones. It's difficult to be sure, but I suspect it was a repeat. Second: I found a free bathroom in a mall. And it was decently well-kept. Third: I was moderately accosted on the street.

Well, since you asked, I'll give some deets on the last one there, although I would gladly do the same on the others. I was walking down the lane in the pedestrian area. It was moderately peopled and there was a young-ish guy walking in my direction. The next thing I knew, the wind was almost knocked out of me and there was pain in my elbow. As I coughed, I turned around to watch him walk away. He turned back and apologized as he hurried on his way. Where the fire was I have no idea. However, I did make sure to check for my valuables to be sure that this wasn't some convincing pick-pocketing scheme. Luckily my purse was on the other side of my body and nothing was missing. But there is a mark on my elbow. I'm just still trying to figure out how he caused me to experience a loss of breath and also a stinging sensation in my arm. My best conclusion is that he actually only hit my arm, causing me to knock the wind out of myself. Hm. This is what happens when you unflex your rock hard abs for a split second. And I shall never do it again.

I'm not sayin'; I'm just sayin'.

Also, everyone should thank their father/father figure. There's no not sayin' about it. I'm totally sayin'.
