Man down, Man down....

This morning I'm going to work, I get to the structure, get in the elevator and exit the building. I'm on the sidewalk and totally hit some black ice & down I go. I had my ipod in my pocket,(didn't break) and it totally got trapped between my body and the ground. I got 2 REALLY sore ribs. But no visible bruising...we shall see tomm...but OW! the good news was there were no visible witnesses, i even though i was hurting, I wasn't too embarrassed, welcome winter, its good to have you!
