Ok, so yesterday I really skinned myself up playing ultimate frisbee. It was fun. As any self-respecting guy would, I got pictures. ( 1 2 3 ) Please disregard the apparent pastiness in the second and third pictures… it’s… umm… the lighting. Riiight.
I’ve now reached the end of my creative skill for the day. If I ever find my muse, I’m going to beat him/her. For my amusement, why don’t you all leave funny comments about the first time you _______. Ok? Neat! Thanks!
owie! that hurt just to look at it!
That reminds me of my first trip to the emergency room. I stepped on a broken brick and it nearly cut my big toe off. Took 4 orderlies, a nurse, the doctor and my mother to hold me down for stitches. I was about 4 at the time. And actually it was a combination of your injuries (ouchie) and your request for the first time of something that triggered the memory.
The first time I ever waterskii-d I made the mistake of listening to my (ex)boyfriend, who said, \”For your first few runs, don\’t stand up, just get on top of the water and skim!\” Following this advice, I soon found out, only results in total biffage in leech infested waters. When the kindly parties in the boat that helped me haul myself aboard after exhausting myself skimming the water before totally biffing it, they asked, \”Why didn\’t you stand up? You had the technique down pat!\” I replied that my (ex)boyfriend told me not to. Then they told me that he didn\’t know how to waterski. Great.
What part of your middle area is that anyway? You\’re so weird… This reminds me of the first time you told me how you BROKE YOUR FINGER and thought it was fun. Does someone have a love affair with pain? Yeesh.
Hehe, btw, your little window thingies that pop up to show the pictures say \”dispaly image\” in the little title thingie (what are those thingies called?)… I\’m sure you meant to do that *wink*. I just thought it was cute–however wrong!
Ow! That looks sore
Handy for the sympathy vote though - all you need now is a nubile young maiden to change your dressing for you 
Geez… go to bed and this thing just blows up.
I know most folks won\’t believe this, but this really wasn\’t a sympathy thing. While I would never intentionally do anything like this to myself, it\’s still pretty neat (well, I think so anyway). So yeah… I guess this is better than me whining about it, maybe?
Lee… sounds unhappy! You do get bonus points for answering the question, and on topic too!
Shel… I agree… a nubile maiden is just what I need. I\’ll be taking application for the rest of the month.
Cathy: I caught that typo a while back, but hadn\’t gotten around to fixing it yet. I\’m surprised it took you that long. And no, I have no sort of love affair with pain… just a love affair with nifty looking injuries.
I\’m neither nubile nor a maiden (by any stretch of the imagination) but if I come across any I\’ll point them in your direction
I\’m just full of surprises, I guess. Two in one day too–that and the purgatory thing!
*ooo….off topic once again*
There\’s no problem with off topic \’round here, Tess!
