Talking Cast Off

So about a month ago, i dont know if i mentioned but I broke my hand playing baseball. I was sliding into third and snap crackle pop there she goes. I was safe though but anyways, today i finally got the cast off. It feels so good to be able to shower like a normal human being and do everyday things. and tonight i have my first class as a college freshman hoping for some foxy ladies to cross my path

Well, if you don't find any foxy ladies, it's probably a good thing you have that hand free. Just kidding! Hope everything knitted back correctly and that you're enjoying a pain-free recovery.

No wonder you haven't got a woman.

hahaha I shouldve expected a comment like that, the worst part was definitley not being able to wash it for a month. and to wash under my left arm was a definite issue. i had to reach around the shower curtain and hold the soap with the curtain itself. definitley makes you wish you were ambidextrious (sp?) sometimes. the doc said it would be about a month before im back to 100% for now its a little stiff but thats to be expected. and i know someone is going to comment on that line. Ill post about my first day at school tonight when i get back!

I can certainly empathize. I had my right leg in an immobilizer for about 6 weeks after I busted my kneecap in a wreck. Ever try to go #2 . . . in a small bathroom . . . with your leg sticking straight out . . . while on narcotics (can you say constipation?)? It's like trying to pass a cinderblock. YIKES! I still can't stand the sound of velcro.

I would imagine that would suck. I only had my hand in a cast and had to learn to be a righty for awile. I still managed to R&R a Caravan tranny and pull the motor out of my Legacy with one good working hand. I was a learning expirience.

I am a pessimistic optimistic. I think the worst is going to happen, that way when it does, i don't feel as bad, but if the best happens, i am twice as happy.

I can definetly empathize with that one, I've been in the exact same scenario many times before. The only difference? I've had six separate 6-week (or more) incidents over the past ten years, three on each leg. Seems about every two years I blow a knee, at least I have another year before the next one. On the bright side, the narcotics are quite enjoyable when your not on the john.

Ah. It's always great to find a "kindred spirit."
