Today Craig called me to say he wasn’t going to make it to work. The conversation was sort of surreal…
Hey, it’s me. I wanted to let you know I had an accident while I was rock climbing today. I’m on the way to the hospital now…
Only later did I find out a rock had fallen, hit a ledge, and sliced his leg to ribbons. The cut was deep enough that you could see muscle tissue, and when he called back later (doped up on morphine) he said the muscle was actually hanging out of the cut at one point. Coooool.
Anyway, the good news is he’s going to be okay. I think he was secretly looking for an excuse to have a long weekend (combined with the holiday next week, he’ll score five days off).
