What would I do without slipper friends?

I did a real cartoon fall on the way to work this morning. It resulted in me limping around the office all day with a knee twice as big as usual.

Convalescent and slightly worried, I called Beautiful J when I got home to ask for some advice (how do you know if your knee is REALLY bad kind of advice). She happened to be just around the corner - big advantage of slipper friends - and three glasses of wine later my knee is feeling so much better. Or may be I'm just numb. Anyway, the loving company and support definitely helped.
