Who went to Great Woods- 6/18

[LIPH]

In all seriousness, do we have any nurse/doctor types around here?

My only medical experience is as a patient, but I do like to play doctor.

I even used the "L" word at the tailgate. Me. The HOG.

It was EPIC.

And no, I wasn't talking to Jon at the time.

Were you talking about the "other" L word......LANDSHARK???

I know it's supposed to make me cringe, but hearing M'ville on the radio just makes me want to give you guys a hug.

Love back at ya kiddo - seriously, give it up and see a doctor. It's likely just a bad bruise but no sense in having something heal wrong that will give you problems later on. Brusing tends to travel especially if you're still walking around on it a lot but the pains up your leg might be reason to at least ask a doctor about it.

In all seriousness, do we have any nurse/doctor types around here? I'm the stubborn refuse to go to the Dr/high tolerance for pain type, but my bruised, sprained ankle is now kind of turning dark purple/black down the entire side of my foot and, while it's tolerable, the pain is actually starting to shoot up my leg. Please don't tell me to drink more. That's how this happened in the first place.

Damn you tequila shots! Damn you Mick Morgans! Damn you bad ankles and general clumsiness!

Thank you to everybody who watched me go down and didn't crack up in hysterical laughter.

have you been icing it????

When I have time...?

Seriously. I haven't had time to stay off of it and keep it elevated until today (theoretically). I've got a few errands to run and then I'll be at home for the duration with ice packs and hopefully a crutch so I can keep some weight off of it next week. I swear it didn't really start hurting until I sobered up on Tuesday.

Amazing how that happens!!! Tonight is a good night to chill out with your foot up and iced, and chill out with the setlisters.

ice ice baby......and yes keep it elevated , staying off it will probably help!!...chances are it's a sprain and the Dr will tell you the same..ice and stay off it....so with the 30.00 co-pay i saved you....go buy some ice and a bottle of wine(or booze of choice)....ice and chill and let it heal!!

sorry couldn't resist....i thought it was the perfect set up.....and i promise!!

I can name every Buffett album and list most episodes of The X-Files in order. That makes me no different than someone who knows the starting line-up for the Red Sox. Both geeks, but on differing subjects. That's my honest opinion of life. We are all the same, deep down. So can't we all just get along? (I wish!)

This is exactly how I explain it to my friends. I had so many people back in May asking me why I went to so many Buffett concerts and telling me they just didn't get it. Many of them come from "West Nashville Grand Ballroom Gown" type families and I asked them why they went to Derby and Steeplechase? At least we love the music, none of them are really passionate about horse racing and we're all getting dressed up, putting on stupid hats and drinking/tailgating the day away. It's just a different costume. I'd just rather do it for a concert than a 45 second horse race.

Everybody has something they're a geek about and we all have our guilty pleasures. Just live, let live and try to enjoy good people the things you have in common.

(This thread is going to turn into a GW love fest.)

Yeah, it's so too late for that...it's been done.

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE!

I'm not a physician, but I'm a doctor...and both as a veterinarian and as a recent minor trauma patient, I can tell you that elevation really does make a huge difference. Put it up. For reals. Quit screwing around with it.

And I agree that colors migrate and it's probably a sprain and going to the doc probably isn't going to make a huge difference, BUT if things don't improve within another few days/with actually taking it easy, I'd get it checked out. The sinking color is probably gravity, but the pains up the leg might be more serious...hm...tough one. My patients don't tell me these things.

Is it just me or does it look like his compass is pointing north?

[ScarletB]

Great, Thanks Lesley, now I have to poke my eyes out!

[LIPH]

It's probably a cucumber or maybe a pepperoni.

As a matter of fact, i will have another!!!
