DAD-GUM my hand hurts.
My wife landed on it with her elbow. I had it laying loosely on the couch kind of like a claw with my finger folded under. She sat down next to me and kind of fell over and her elbow landed across my knuckles. SO every joint got bent to far. Plus my arthritis is acting up the last few days and now OH MAN DOES IT HURT. I can bend them so they are not broken, but they are bruised something fierce.

1. My aunt and uncle
were walking up the basement stairs with my aunt walking ahead of my uncle. She didn't realize how close he was behind her, and she turned to say something to him and slammed him in the nose with her elbow. Broke his nose. Of course, we teased them both about this. "She finally slugged ya huh?"

2. That, plus your sad smiley,
drives me to a fit of sorrow and pity. I hope ya feel better. These little unexpected household encounters with unexpected objects can hurt the worst.

There, I proved your sig wrong--and that's coming from another reply-less outcast.

3. I am so sorry, my dear tex!
I trust you are medicating yourself so you'll feel better quickly? And ice, and all that good stuff....

Please take care...I'll bet your wife is just devastated at having hurt you!

:pals:

4. Sorry to hear that tex
A little ice, a little ibuprofen? Might work.

But a little physical damage is just one of those things that come with wives.

In the long term it's worth it, in the short term it's ice and ibuprofen :)

Khash.
