lol , broken bones, brings back a load of memories.


Thats one thing im glad not to have had many of back then.  Ive only had a few fractures and a couple broken toes...But back in 3rd grade my friend and i were messing around and i ended up tripping over something...the only thing that kept me from landing on my face was one poor finger (4th one over from thumb on right hand) his grandma was standing in the other room some 20 feet away and heard the crack :o  A few hours later i was on my way home from the er with 8 little pins stuck in it.  I got to see the x-ray afterwards..It was shattered.  5 cross ways and 1 diagonal break :'(  Its still crooked and probly always will be :P  Not to mention later on that year same friend and i were messing around with some old rusty pipes.  All i remember was one falling and my middle finger on my left hand split wide open at the tip.  some 8 years later there is still the crease from the 6 stitches :P  Those were the good times though....Now i can only imagine if that happened to a kid today...probly a nice healthy lawsuit or 2 :-/

I broke both of my middle fingers (at seperate times) when I was little. The first one got smashed by a kid with a rock, I never understood why he did it, I always thought he just had no idea it was actually going to hurt me, we were both about 5. The other one happened about 5 or 6 years after that when some kid tackled me, and I landed in such a way that all of my fingers but the middle one bent in the right direction. The only fun part about breaking the middle finger is looking at the X-rays afterword, because the doctor basically has you flip off the X-ray machine, and it funny to see a skelleton arm giving the finger.

I used to get home full of muds getting my mom upset. but Hey that was life running in the woods and not getting lost. falling in to the ditch. running again eating fruits in the field and not getting stun by Bees and other dangerous fling busing thing.

getting face to face with the neibor Beef monster with horn.... Got me running. Hey first time i saw that monster..... plus the fact that from where i was standing it was a giant animal to me....

watching those owls fling above us. and running after rabit betting to your friend that you can catch them and telling then that you did last time when they where not there (yayaya sure....)

That is probably why i love being in the wood still today. And i am no logger scared of any animal... not eaven Bears.

ps they wont do anything onless your are stupidly scaring it sh1tl3ss. leave them alone they will leave you alone. ho no feeding please..... they love cake and the hand that is holding the cake....and tooth past too... so keep it away from the tent.....
