Pro tip: do not miss the last step of your stairs, fall, and damage your toes. Turns out you need those for doing basically everything!

@SimonWoods Ow! Last year I managed to fall so as to drive the toenail into my big toe. Bloody, ugly, & debilitating. My sympathies. We don't appreciate toes enough.

@JohnBrady Yikes! I'm squarely in the age of slower recovery now as well, so you know, super fun all around.

To be fair, there are reasons to blame myself and I wasn't attacked or anything so it could be much worse. If anything, this is yet more proof that I need to adjust my mentality with how my everyday activity is connected to health in the long term — not like I needed a reason to overthink that anyway.
