Reason #4003: You Know You're Getting Old When...

..you can't even run for a damn train. I was running late for my 1 hour + commute this morning and had a little accident. I was exiting one train just as my connection was arriving. I have to go up a few flights of stairs and cross over to another platform. Seeing that I just had about a 45 second window of opportunity, I took off running for the stairs. As I was turning to hit the stairs, I stepped wrong and seriously twisted my ankle. I tried to suck it up and keep going but the pain was too much. I just had to stop and take a breather, as my train started to pull away from the gate.
And now, here I am, sitting at work, icing my ankle and flinching everytime I move in my chair. Remember when you were a kid, when you could break your damn arm, and still go out and play football. Man, I can feel "40" creepin' up on my now...
Where my wife at? I need some pampering, damnit!!!
