Late Monday night, on my birthday, no less, I got a whuppin'. Apparently, a group of guys thought someone in the house I was at threw something at them. I happened to walk out the front door at the wrong time.
Concussion, Broken Nose, Stitched up face, and 3 broken teeth later, my Hee-Haw moniker is now a way of life.
I'm still loopy from pain pills, so you probably won't see me around the blogosphere for a few days, but have no fear, I will be back, recharged and ready to rock next week.
If you've got any fun activities I can do from bed, please feel free to fill me in.
Thanks...
Man, that sucks... not to state the obvious.
Hopefully the guilty persons will be apprehended... if nothing else maybe a piano will fall on them, from really, really high too.
Good luck with the recovery. Blogging from bed, even with a pain pill buzz, can be good for your mental health. Hell, you can't be any worse on drugs than most of us are sober...
Sorry for the crappy birthday- it has to get better from here.

Dude, are you kidding??
I think you need to create a meme for this, maybe put a huge photo of your busted face up and let people "bid" on the choice injuries.
Seriously—I hope you feel better soon. I can't believe that happened to you. Ugh.

They already have one guy, and they're just sifting through the he said she said's to get down to the bottom of the rest.
How about I start a meme where everyone just feels sorry for me and sends me a bunch of money? That would be sweet!
Thanks for the support!

What the hell?!? I thought such 'he looked at yore lady Bubba, let's kick his ass!' crap only occurred in the rural South! Hopefully these jackasses get to spend some time in jail, that's just ridiculous. Good luck on the recovery time, that's just total BS.

Take it easy, Paul. Feel better soon....

As a writer, no experience is wasted, although I'm sure you may have different opinions at the moment. Mend and heal!

Whoa! That's crazy...
Take care, Paul. I look forward to seeing a rejuvenated YOU and some fantastic blog posts, pretty soon.
Regards,
Mario

posted on 5/03/07: I still attribute THIS post to how we became friends...sorry that you had to get beat-up but this was so brave to post on and just endeared me to you. So much so I've put up with you for almost a whole year (I think we'll make it a year).
You've healed perfectly and your blog just keeps gettin' better.
