Hello
everybody out there in healthy-ankle-land. I'm merely a visitor to your
country. That's right everybody. In case you haven't heard, I'm the newest gimp
on the hall. The golden crutches have been passed down like a crown from Tony
to David to me. I'm confined to them and this stupid plaster cast for up to a
week or 10 days. At least that's what they tell me. They of course don't know
that my ligaments happen to heel at a rate 7 times faster than the ordinary
ligament. So I should be walking again by dinner tomorrow, and I'll be leading
off and playing left field in our game Friday. Actually, it's not that my
ligaments are 7 times stronger than the ordinary ligament. It's just that I'm 7
times stupider than the ordinary ligament.
Anyway, I was talking to my dad the other night about one thing or another that
was going wrong in my life. He tried to console me, but I told him I was fine
and I'd get by. I just had to stick it out until the end of the semester and
I'd be fine. To this he replied "I worry about you, son." I told him
that he shouldn't worry about me and was cut off...
Quote of the Day 4/8
"Well, I do. If I had another son, I wouldn't give a shit. But you're all
I got."
-My always supportive and caring father
My mom wasn't quite as supportive as dad.
Love, crutches, and sore arm pits,
Dustin.
Still Hobbling Right Here...
