Not a good year

According to the Chinese zodiac, this will be the second consecutive bad year for those born in the Year of the Horse.

The negative predictions include Horse people will experience ill health and falls if not careful. And whether it’s a coincidence or not, I had a super bad fall last week. Bad enough to have multiple bloodied cuts and bruises on my buttocks, knee and elbow. I also suffered several days of body aches and pains. On top of that, I had non-stop diarrhea on the first few days of Chinese New Year. Even today, I still have one or two runs daily. Whether the fall and the diarrhea are related I am not sure. I think I’ll have to seek medical help if this go on.

Sheer coincidence? I don’t know. Whatever the case may be, it’s better to err on the safe side when it comes to safety and health. And oh, Day 7 of the Lunar New Year is commemorated as the Day of Man (人日) and is considered every man’s birthday. So,

Happy birthday everyone!

How did you fall? You are a fairly young man, isn't unusual to lose balance at this age? Hope you recover quickly.

Hey Rob,

Thanks. The wounds are largely healed. Just waiting for the scab to drop off. But yeah, it was unfortunate. I slipped as I was doing a u-turn on a sandy pathway. And I lost my balance when I was trying to get up and fell again. Thankfully it was a quiet area, otherwise would have been totally embarrassing...
