Severe focused blunt force trauma. That’s how my orthopedist described what caused my fracture. Apparently I broke it in an unusual location where the clavicle is in fact much thicker and closer to the center of my chest. He thinks I don’t need surgery, but I’ll find out for sure next week when he checks how the bones shift around as the swelling subsides. I have a 1cm reduction in my clavicle and there are at least 4 bone chips floating around as well as a general sloping of my shoulder.

I’ve spent the last 3 nights and many waking hours in a borrowed recliner. It has been the only place I am reasonably comfortable. I’ll try to go into work tomorrow, but I doubt how useful I’ll be. This weekend we planned to go camping at Grand Lake in a small cabin. I’m threatening to stay home, but Jeanie’s threatening to bring the recliner

I found a really cool new feature on with Google Maps today when mapping out directions to the doctors office. You can now modify the route by clicking and dragging points along the route. Check it out here.
