To cap off a great 2-day work-at-home stint I decided to spend the morning playing drop-in hockey at an ice rink just outside of downtown. Needless to say, I wasn't the star player by any right, but I did my part and had a couple of assists and a few break-ups.
Everyone at the bench got a great laugh after I went for a break-away shot, missed, and managed to slam full-speed into the boards behind the goal. I bounced off, stayed on my feet and kept skating, but when I skated back to the bench everyone was laughing up a storm. Side Note: I may have cracked my big toenail after that. I'm okay, but it looks a little dark under the nail...
One thing I definitely know - I can barely last 2 minutes on that ice rink before I feel like I'm exhausted to the point of throwing up.
Today's Lesson: Need to play more hockey to build up my endurance. *wink*
In other news, special thanks to Abby for the letter. You win. ;-)
Okay - time to eat lunch and then get ready for a pre-move party at someone's house. There's free food and beer, so like hell I'm not going!

Posted by: Janine on December 5, 2002 02:08 PMIt's fine. It cracked down, but on the side of it, and it's not completely cracked thru. The blood blister is about as small as an eraser, so it's fine. It hurts when you sqweeze on it, but I checked it out and I didn't break anything else.
FYI - it's the left big toe, cracked on the right side.
