Today, on my first ski run down a mountain, I dislocated my patella. Now I get to watch out of the window as my family builds a snowman and names it after me. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, after months of begging, I finally convinced my friends to go skiing with me. On our first run I suggested a race. Everybody loved the idea. Good news: I came in first. Bad news: I tore a ligament in my knee. It will be operated on tomorrow. FML
Today, I went skiing for the very first time and spent more time falling down than actually skiing. Despite the fact that I'm up here in the mountains for another week with my family, I'm never trying that again. FML
Today, I went skiing. Trying to show off to some inexperienced skiers, I flew past them at my top speed, a bracket snapped off my boot and I slid on my face for about 30 metres. FML
Today, I was feeling depressed, so I decided to go snowboarding with friends to cheer myself up. I fell on the first trail and broke my dominant wrist. FML
Today, I fractured a bone in my knee. Now not only do I have to wear a huge knee brace for the next two months, I'll have to sit around in a hotel room all of next week while my family has fun skiing in the mountains. FML
Today, I went skiing. On the first run of the day, a little girl came out of nowhere and crashed into me. I was fine, but she was hurt, so I called the ski patrol. She told him that I deliberately hit her, and got me kicked out. I was there for 10 minutes. I paid for all day. FML
Today, I went snowboarding for the first time. I was so scared that I passed out. I was only on the kiddie hill. FML
Today, I was skiing really fast and there was a sign saying 'Slow Down'. Feeling rather good about myself I decided to jump over the sign. Whilst jumping, however, I caught my ski tips on the sign and went face first into the ground. Hard. FML
Today, I went on a hike. It had snowed the night before so I wore warm clothes. They didn’t help when I slipped and broke my leg. FML
Today, while skiing down a steep mountain, a man ran over my skis, causing me to fall and roll down the slope. When I regained my balance, I saw the man had followed me just to say "How graceful" and continue on. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

"then you took an arrow in the knee" never seemed so fitting

It could be worse. I was heli-skiing and we had an avalanche. One guy was swept under by the snow but luckily ended up with his head above the snow when it stopped and one lady really screwed up her leg. It took two+ hours to get her down the mountain through wild terrain and then the helicopter ride to the hospital. Be glad you got hurt on groomed terrain at a resort, not in the back country. We still managed to ski over 10,000 vertical feet that day even with the fiasco.

Do you wanna build a snowman? (Sorry)

The same thing happened to me my first time skiing down a mountain. Haven't done that since then. (Skiing that is. I've dislocated it numerous times after that)

Cant stop thinking about frozen. "Do you want to build a snow man?" lol. but everything will be okay soon. Best thing about our bodies is that they heal. Rest up OP

Try the “bunny” slope first. Then setup up to the much harder “bunny trail” run

I dislocated my knee and severed my perineal nerve and am going to have to have an osteotomy, so I know what pain you are in. Hope yours is not as severe and you are back to good health in no time. In the meantime, Netflix is awesome.

Well at least your family is trying to make you feel better during the holidays

Are you just upset because you wanted to build a snowman?
