Small Headache

If someone would have asked me two years ago whether I was injury prone or not, I would without hesitation say "Heck no" but I think my body has finally caught up with me. These last two years have just been a laundry list of what is hurt or at best just aching.  Let me tell you about my most recent one. 

So while playing basketball this past Friday, I was ahead of the defense and awaiting a pass from the guy with the ball. Well the guy threw the pass too high so I had to jump as high as possible and grab the ball and throw it back in play. So I did. But the momentum of the ball apparently forced my body to tilt and I ultimately ended up landing on my back and then slamming my head into the hard wood floor. The crazy part: I don't remember any of this past the jumping in the air part.  Also, supposedly I got up and finished the game. Could have fooled me.  There literally is about a ten minute span of my life where I have pretty much no recollection of anything happening. Crazy eh?

So basically what I am saying is that I can add concussion to my list of torn knee ligaments, back spasms, tendinitis in the elbow, sprains, and whatever else each day decides to throw at me. Stupid body
