ryoder 1,390 #26 February 5, 2011 Quote The one that I'm the most sensitive about is that I have bunions. Sounds like some kind of old lady disease to me. I loathe shoe shopping and will probably never get a pedicure. The surgery to repair it involves breaking both of my feet and is apparently only marginally successful. There are about three different variants of the surgery depending on how bad the problem is. The worst part is that after surgery you must spend a month living flat on your back with feet elevated. If you stand up, the foot starts swelling like a football in just a matter of minutes.

I had a similar experience, but it was a 10K race and it exacerbated an already worsening situation - both achilles heel tendons were about to snap. I knew I was having some pain in both feet but chose to run the race. Had my 2nd fastest ever time, 37:50 or thereabouts, but as soon as I crossed the finish line and slowed to a walk, I could barely stand. OH FUCK ME! That hurt like a motherfucker! When I got to my doctor, he took an xray and said the tendons looked like they'd been raked over real good by a rasp. I stopped running right there. It took me a year for the pain to finally go away.

jtval 0 #30 February 5, 2011 Quote Just today I went to Home Depot for some supplies. Went to the Self-Checkout lane and swiped everything I wanted, then reached for my wallet.... "oh damn it!" Two ladies within earshot looked at me (both cashiers). "I left my wallet at home!" They were nice though, gave me a receipt and said they would hold my stuff and to come back with my wallet and all I have to do is present the receipt and pay it. No re-swiping the stuff. Man I hate leaving home without my wallet. Thankfully, it hasn't happened yet when I get pulled over by a cop! Yea. I usual leave my wallet in one of three places. On my counter, in my car or someplace else. Its only recently come to my attention how often I leave it on the third option. Mostly everything else in my life is in order...I just cant seem to remember my wallet. I lost my wallet for FOUR MONTHS and found it in a pocket of a uniform I rarely wear.... The good note: It was like finding free money. I had $250 in the wallet. Now I have a go pro instead. I also now have two ID's so I can leave one wallet at home and take the other with me. Seems to be working so far.My photos My Videos Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

airtwardo 6 #35 February 5, 2011 I'm bent so I walk funny. Never been hurt Skydiving, but have slammed my body around so many times in so many ways doing other stuff...nothing lines up anymore, I walk like Bigfoot on Roofies. People that don't 'know' me always ask why I'm limping...I'm not, this is how I walk! ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There was as much hanging over in front as there was in the back. Have you seen the fainting goats? Well, that was me...I saw that stuff and fainted. Woke up, saw it again, fainted again.

The worst time I've gotten lost (so far!) was the second day or so after I moved to London... I wanted to go fetch a magazine they give out for free at the train station... My then-partner offered to draw me a map to get there and I was really offended - I mean.. I had come from the station the day before.. How fucking stupid did he think I was?? A map.. Pffff!! So I left the house and ended up taking a wrong turn, and as I had no phone, money, and couldn't recognise my building or remember which apartment number we had, I kind of went around in circles for THREE HOURS before I found my way back home!!! That's not even the worst part.. The boyfriend hadn't even noticed I was gone!!! D'oh!! Oh yeah... I never found the bloody train station, so I came home without the magazine as well!!

I read this really annoying study that was arguing that men have more success getting "un-lost" because people give shit directions, so on average it's better to just keep trying to sort yourself out!!!
