On Cinco de Mayo eve, while en route to Sonora from Los Angeles, Ariana Lenarsky, fiction editor for The Collagist blog, fell off of a 1993 Honda CBR f2 600cc motorcycle and broke her hip. She can't walk until the end of July, and is lazily curious about whether or not she will develop an opiate addiction to her meds before then. Even though she's on crutches, she still managed to get to first base with someone, so don't feel too sorry for her. You can e-mail her a nice little something at ariana@arianalenarsky.com.
