LOL, it is a true story though. I was walking across a snowy/icy field in Massachusetts on my way to work on a ceramics final when I fell on my head. I still got a B though.

Sadly, I once wanted to use my brain to be a physicist or mathematician, but I got bored and ended up in public service instead! Too many concussions, I guess.

 

Now, I just aspire to scratch out a tune or two on the fiddle.

Well, glad to hear that you were OK, after all. Head injuries are no laughing matter. We have two common connections, by the way: I live in Massachusetts and I'm also in public service (federal government). And, I didn't even hit my head.

Oh, so what's your excuse then? LOL [I'm allowed to say that as a fellow fed- just don't tell anyone]

No excuse, really. I just fell into it, I guess. Started in state government right out of college many moons ago, then graduated to the feds nine years ago.

Don't worry, I won't tell anyone…we feds can keep secrets.
