Fischer on her way back

There are worse places to be laid up than a Manhattan hotel room within walking distance of Central Park, but no doubt Jenna Fischer is ready to head home.
The Office star is still in New York and still in a lot of pain following a May 14 fall at the trendy Buddakan club which left her with four fractured vertebrae, USA Today reports, though she should be able to travel home to LA in another week.
A few interesting tidbits from the article:
-  Fischer was headed for the dance floor at the urging of one of the show’s writers when she fell. “I was going to do one dance and then get out of there,” Fischer says. “The dance floor was down a long set of marble stairs. I linked arms with my friend and just missed a step. All I know is I was suddenly not on the ground anymore. My legs flipped out from underneath me, and while I was in the air, I had the thought, ‘This isn’t going to end well.’ “
- Co-stars Steve Carell sent flowers, John Krasinski sent an e-mail and Rainn Wilson called. But Scrubs’s Zach Braff topped them all by sending cupcakes. “In those first few days, all my husband and I did for pleasure was watch a Larry Sanders DVD and eat those cupcakes.”
- Now “mostly off the meds,” Fischer takes daily half-hour walks in Central Park as part of her recuperation.
