I need a story...

Long story short... I was OWNED by my foot. After going to the foot doctor yesterday I realize that last year I may have broken my interior sesamoid bone on my left foot (it sounds like I know what I am talking about, but I dont... the internet helped). It healed, but not well, and it looks like I have re-broken it. I now have this wounderful walking cast and I will be in it for atleast six weeks. Preventing me from any golf, volleyball, or softball that I had planned in the very near future.

Has anyone else been in a walking cast? It suxor, but it is releaving most of the pain. And hopefully it will allow it to heal correctly this time. Also since I was over a year ago I really have no idea how it happen. Thats sucks because there is no good story to tell everyone.

So.... we need to come up with a great story that I can spread around. I had one that included the Mrs, but she didn't find it as amuzing.

Begin Story:

While practicing your Low-altitude opening techniques for next year's World Parachuting Championships, your canopy experienced a minor malfunction, by which it would not open. sensing your peril, you courageously cut your main chute, and released your reserve (in one swift motion, mind you), which did open. However, due to the now very low point of opening, you were sent into a minor spin, which was only halted through your deft handling of the canopy toggles. You made a 3 point, one footed landing right next to the ledge of a very steep ravine, but came down rather hard, which coincidentally, lost you enough points to get knocked from the top spot, and finish in a measly 3rd place. Upon a routine post accident medical checkup, it was discovered that you had broken your sesamoid, possibly caused by that rock you landed on top of.

Despite your doctor's warnings to the contrary, you are avoiding the 6 weeks of bedrest he prescribed, and are making a full recovery on your own terms.

End of Story

you were banging the neighboor, when her husband walked in with a ball-peen hammer and smashed your foot. I'm sure your Mrs. will LOVE that one

I was walking with a cane a while back and I came up with a list of good reasons. I can't remember em all, but one of them was I got stepped on during a big Bollywood dance number with Simran.

I work with a bunch of Indian folks and they thought that one was pretty funny.

The other way to go is to say its not a walking cast at all, its the latest style of footwear from Europe.

Another one was I was hurt training for the X-games. (Okay, that one is probably only funny in regards to me, since there ain't no way I'd be making it to the X-games)

Or I have told people it was an old college football injury. When they say, "Really?!" (I don't look like I ever played football... not even on a high school level) I say, "Yes... y'know you really should be careful how much you drink watching those games. You can get hurt staggering up and down those bleacher steps."

Well, that's all I got Hamese, hope it heals well and quickly.

ok how bout this.... you and the Mrs. where at a bar... you got into a arguement cuz this guy was eyeing your wife... you got into a bar fight... and more people joined in.. later the cops came and raided it... you and the Mrs. ran for it. She trips and grabs yoru foot.. and you fall, kick off the mrs for grabbing your foot (which breaks yoru foot) and you leave your wife behind and get home.

Its a flawless story!
