GOT A 93 ON MY STATISTICS TEST!!!
I wanted to update sooner, but time has not been so forgiving. I’m going to share something, and farther down in this entry there is a photo that is not for the faint of heart. It is a nasty picture of my thigh. So you are you are forewarned.
First the slightly humorous story: Friday night No.2 and I went to the gym to workout. I was running on the treadmill, and he went to go see if he could play basketball. Before long, I noticed he was on a treadmill next to me. As I was running, I looked over at him and smiled. While I did this, I lost track of where my feet were, and I tripped nearly falling off of the mill. I managed to stay on my feet. Although I was rather embarrassed, No. 2 thought it was really funny. I got back on and continued my run. About 5 minutes later I hear a THUD! And I look over to my left, and see this mass of humanity (No.2) on the treadmill belt, and being thrown from the treadmill, just kinda like a “WHOOSH!” It threw him a good 6 feet off of it. He bounced right up and got back on it. That’s what he gets for laughing at me (Mwah ha ha ha)
So feeling all justified, No. 1 and I went up to get some videos at Blockbuster. (That name is almost ironic considering the context of this story) As we were leaving, I had parked the car right at the end next to the curb by the bushes. I stepped up on the curb. Unbeknownst to me, my left foot stepped on a continuous metal ring made of 12 gauge steel. As I stepped on it, leverage caused the other end of the ring to elevate, thus creating a snare for my right foot. Before I knew what happened, the videos went flying in the air, and I was on my back screaming in pain. My left thigh had landed right on the curb giving me the mother-of-all Charlie horses.
Below is the net result to my leg. Now is your chance to turn back if you have a weak stomach.
