So I'm sitting at my desk. The feet to my damned chair are in the way. I take my left foot and swivel the feet out of the way. Felt a little funny. Get up to go piss, and I can barely walk. My left foot is screwed up. I go to the doctor. Doc takes a look and says to keep weight off of it. Use crutches, come back in the morning when the radiologist is in and get an X-ray. This is monumentally gay.

Getting old sucks ballz.

Do I need to make you a pink walker with VTEC painted on the side like I did for Greg?

Lol, I find it weird how it didn't hurt right after you moved the feet.

Sounds like you probably just extended it too far and sprained it. But I'm no doctor.

Get your employees to carry you around on a chair Egyptian-style. Buy a bull whip.

Maybe this will cheer you up...

One time I took a nap at work and managed to let both legs fall asleep...
When the intercom rang for the exterior gate, I sprang up and took a step... BOOM
I come crashing on the floor. I get back up and try taking another step. Same thing.

I have never laughed that hard in my life.

Could it have been caused by a typographical error in a sex manual??

Feel better, but on the positive side, if you were to go to an amusement park on crutches, they'd give you a wheel chair and you could bypass the lines. :dblthumb:

Man a little less then a year back I met a friend outside my apartment complex. The gate near where he parked is closed on weekends, but rather then walk around he says "Ehh, lets just jump it".

The first clue should have been when I could barely get my waist up on this gate that was only a little more then head high.
I finally pulled myself over the top, and when I came down on the other side my leg immediately gave out from the pain.

What I used to do like nothing ended up putting me off my feet for damn near a month.

Stupid getting old.

Crutches suck, that was my first time using them and I never had really realized that they basically take up both your hands just to walk... so no more carrying things while moving.
Even just getting food, and getting to the table was a royal pain.

Also, the electric scooters they give you at the shopping mart.... No where near as fast or racey as I picked in my head on the way to the store. Damn thing couldn't even burn out, let alone reach its limit in a corner.

Yeah, I hobbled without them first thing today. I needed my cup of coffee.

Lunch, that was another hobbling adventure.

Doors suck, especially heavy ones with strong hydraulic closers.

Driving a 5 speed really sucks, but I can't seem to get in the Hello Kitty Cube. Just too girly. The Cube is okay, the Kitty is what kills me.

Swing yourself towards the door to get momentum and kick the door with your good leg. That's what I used to have to do.
