Look what I did to my foot!

Owwwwww! What happened?

You probably understand exactly how pissed off I was when it wouldn't run under XP. I miss that game.

Caught my pinky toe on the edge of a bookcase. There was a very audible crack when it happened. I'm pretty sure I broke it, but it's not like they can put a cast on a toe, I just have to be nice to it until it heals.

If you're going to kick someone's ass, don't lead with the toes because you just force them back into the fleshly part of your foot. Always try to get more contact with the surface area on the top of your foot.

Buddy tape the pinky toe to the one next to it. Then go to the ER and get X-rays. You could have dislocated it, too.

ow!

yeah, broken toes are a bitch, 'cause there's not much you can do.

owie!

First aid for broken toe:

Don't do it again.

You spilled watercolor on it?:)

That's nothing to laugh about. Ouch.

Better go ahead to the doc and get some meds. Its gonna start smarting real soon. No, I mean really smarting.

:whofart: Is that the sort of question you should be asking a stranger on the internet?

I'm kinda panicky.

I have a few symptoms of being up the duff but I'm about 100% positive I cant be.

"about" Dangerous word.

The army dude, wasn't it?

I need an Aussie/American dictionary. Does "up the duff" mean what I think it means? Are congratulations in order?

It means what you think it does, but her being "panicky" probably means a celebration isn't forefront in her mind.

I had the pleasure of speaking to my grandson this morning and wishing him Happy 8 years old. I asked him if he had opened his presents yet, and he informed me, in a doleful voice, "No, we have to open them as a family." Funny, because I can just hear him being told that. Over and over and over . . . :)

I know you were all wondering how this turned out, and were worried for me.

Well, as it turns out, there was a break long enough in the showers that the roof dried off this afternoon, and the chimney sweep was willing to climb up there at the appointed time. The raccoon was no longer in the chimney. It had been driven away by the liberal application of ammonia soaked rags by us. The chimney sweep inspected the chimney and found no bedding materials brought in by the raccoon. He capped the chimney, wrote up an estimate to have some minor mortar repair done, and charged us a measly $113 dollars for the whole deal. I feel like we won the lottery. I was thinking we would have to pay a lot more, since everything is always outrageous around here.

glatt is one happy dude. :)

fantastic!

Why didn't you fire up the fireplace and furnace? Roasted coon is tasty.

it came to me again today: I am so, SO glad I'm not married!

Call me I'll come over and charge you twice that if it would make you feel better. :D

Will work for pancakes.

I wish I could have a pizza for lunch.

Hmmm, home pregnancy kit says Negatori! I still feel funky.

In all honesty, I wouldve accepted the congratulations :) but would of been shitting myself telling him and waiting for him to come back from Iraq. He will be down here on pre deployment leave in 2 weeks, then I wont see him until the end of the year.

We have had the *what if* talk and he wants more kids, but I dont think he would of wanted them under these circumstances.

I dont know whether I want him to be the father of my children just yet though :)

Clod - Hows the foot?? thats some nasty bruising.

Cloud - youre not married? why are you happy? I'm a bit hazy on your circumstances. :blush:

My US friend (from WI) sent his stuffed raccoon over here for a holiday. I'm thinking I need to Flat Stanley him, so will have to take a trip to Sydney to get the compulsory Sydney Opera House pic.

:D Glatt

I just got up this morning, looked in the mirror . . . and scared myself.

EEK!

Must...increase...post count...

I felt the need to add to my post count and here is my post.

I feel so....cheap.

:p

Family Guy is hilarious.
I am watching Season 1 (which I downloaded yesterday) right now.

Lois: "Oh no!"
Meg: "Oh no!"
Chris:"Oh no!"
<<Mr. Kool-Aid bursts out of wall>>
Mr. Kool-Aid: "Oh yeahhhh!"

shit that was so funny

mother FUUUUCKKKKKKEEER

awful lot of animals around here: ducks, goats, toads, foxes . . . Maybe the Cellars is really a zoo in disguise!

anyone know what those motorized 2-wheel upright scooter thingies that the meter maids, etc. use are called?

Never seen them, but they sound like Segways.

yep! those are them, thanks. But Segway is a brand--they call them "self-balancing personal transportation devices."

Anybody ever ride/drive one? They look pretty scary to operate.

and . . .

they need rocket boosters for self-powered flight. <grin>

anybody see CSI (Las Vegas) last week?

near-fatal shellfish blowjob!

(falls on floor laughing)

Yeppers that was a Good CSI .

I want to go shopping!

but I think my dryer just died (it's plugged in this time, I swear!) so maybe not.

Sigh. 6 years at 1.47 posts per day.

My only excuse is that I don't post from work. One of the tradeoffs of using my real name is a certain degree of work/Cellar separation. Not that I expect that everyone who posts from work is sneaking around, I just don't do it.

I actually put a lot of thought into most of my posts, and even do fact-checking when I am not sure of something. This means it is much more time consuming for me to post than to read.

I actually follow a similar procedure for some work e-mails, the ones that go beyond 'send me a file' or "here's the file". This makes it difficult to 'fire off' e-mails.

why are you sighing? too many? or not enough?

Why does no one answer my questions?

uh . . . because we don't know the answers or can't think of plausible B.S.?

Youre one of them Cloud :p, in this very thread!!

ah, sorry. No, I'm not married--divorced for many years. I'm happy because I'm not married. anymore. My husband was a fairly nice man, but a terrible alcoholic.

I like being alone. I can never relax completely unless I'm alone.

Oh hey, one of the questions was for me, huh? Oops. I know I read it, I must have gotten distracted. Anyway, the foot's much better; I'm walking without pain and starting to pick things up with my toes again. :)

I like long hair on men, but I love the soft, bristly feel of a crew cut!

So I've had athletes foot for like 2 and a half years on my right foot. Never got it looked at by doctor, just itched it and sprayed it with Tough Actin' Tinactin' cause I'm a man, yeah! :male:

Anyway the ball of my foot is now so tough, rough, leathery and dry that there is slight loss of sensitivity. Is this a bad fungal infection? Should I switch to Lamisil?

I've been on a DVD/CD buying spree in the past month...3 new DVDs and a CD just today.

Probably, and no. You should go see a doctor. They have prescription-strength stuff available that will actually do you some good.

"one pair of cats can produce 420,000 cats in seven years"

"home fries cooked in bacon fat"

YUK! that just sounds gross

Says you! Bacon fat...*drools*

some 2:30 am random dancing by me

I think I just entered a time warp :eek:

Well, you just go on and bust that move, freshness! :)

Hey, we have the same chairs as you in Minnesota.

and a ferret

I'm getting one of these corset necklaces for myself--the pic doesn't do it justice: http://www.wickedgems.com/darker.pg2...k%20corset.htm

my beautiful Daughter No. 1 makes these!

There's something wrong with my digital cable. The lower, broadcast channels keep freezing up. I thought it was weather related, but it's been going on for a couple of days. Poop.

All the good ones are usually in the higher-ups...at least, for me they are. Skinemax!

A lot of my favorite shows are on CBS though--NCIS, CSI, Ghost Whisperer . . .

get rid of your wire coat hangers. That's right, remove all of those crappy, tangly, annoying wire coat hangers, and buy yourself some REAL coat hangers. You'll be much happier, trust me.

Do you Yoohoo?
