This is going to be short as I'm dictating to Grant

A couple of days ago I started getting this nasty infection by my fingernail - just like a hard swollen red spot that I hoped would go away. But instead it got worse, like bigger and more painful until yesterday I started seeing a red line going down my finger and ever on to my hand from it. SO we went to the stupid hospital to get it looked at and basically I ended up having hand surgery. Well, that is the respectable version. Really it was more like "fingertip surgery". Anyways, the point is I am now working with a full finger cast on one hand and oxycodone.

More later.

So exciting, I know.

I did the SAME thing to my toe once and almost had surgery for it as well... but one of their tricks worked at the last minute + I had huge finger-sized antibiotics I had to take at the same time.

I used to bite my toenails routinely. Now...the nails are too thick. It's kinda gross. I could just gnaw and gnaw to no avail ;)

I've been trying to picture this for like 20 minutes now. Two things: OOOO GROSS and I don't think I could get my toenails anywhere near my face anyway.

I could still get my ankles behind my neck right up until my pregnancy with Elise...I don't think I've tried since then, though, now that I think about it.
