The first time I ever broke a bone, it was my two smallest toes on my right foot. How did I break them you ask? I kicked a stair while I was running up them. You wouldn’t think that would break your toes, but believe me, it will.
The second time I broke a bone, it was again, my two smallest toes on my right foot. This time, I broke them kicking a doorjamb on my way down a hallway. Apparently, I have no control over my feet.
The third time I broke a bone, it was my pinky on my left hand. It got smashed (and nearly severed) in a car door.
The latest time I broke a bone, it was again, my pinky on my left hand—and it was 10 minutes ago. I was balancing my hand on the retractable handle of my laundry basket (It’s one of those tall ones that can be wheeled around) while I was picking up some dirty socks. The handle slid, and so did my pinky finger.. right into a gap that couldn’t have been more than a quarter of a centimeter wide. Surprisingly, my finger fit in that hole.. I’m not sure how—and it was difficult to remove my finger from said hole. My pinky is now swollen and the fingernail has turned purple (where blood is pooling under it) and a little crooked. I’ve got it on ice and I’m going to wrap it up in a bit. It’s a lovely way to start your morning.
How is it that I always break my bones in the stupidest ways possible? P.S. : Typing the letter A hurts like hell. Thank god the majority of my posts are scheduled ahead of time so I don’t have to type much this week.
Dude! You broke your finger and you were typing 10 minutes later!? And a long post too – I bow to your dedication to the blogging cause.
Hope it heals up soon!

XD as long as I avoid the A-Key, i’m okay! I just gotta type that one letter really really slow with the wrong finger. haha, it’s more of an annoyance than a hindrance 😀

This is when you realise *just* how often A features in the English language 😉

Oh, gosh! Yeesh. That sounds awful. Sorry to hear about your finger. I’ve never broken a bone, myself, so I’m just trying to picture—and trying not to picture—the pain.

XD it’s not fun, I don’t recommend it! It feels a bit better today though – as long as I don’t press on the end of it (where it got smashed). Definitely an improvement!

You, my friend, are talented. I hope typing faster than a snail doesn’t make it take longer to heal.

Well, it wasn’t really funny at all but it cracked me up a bit – the way you wrote it – no offence. Take care of those digits!

Ouch! Symmetrical breaking of the toes though…that has to be a rare talent.

Thanks, me too! I’m going to have to learn a way to type faster than a snail for the next two weeks while it heals. -___- it’s a little irritating
