The short version is, I slipped while going down the stairs this morning and wound up sliding/falling down the bottom third or so. It was painful.
Fortunately I don’t seem to have bent anything, but I decided to take the day off from work to recover a bit (my whole lower body is stiff and sore). I’ve been alternating between trying to get some sleep and popping a couple of Advil every four hours.
The moral of the story is, handrails are there for a reason.
