WARNING: NOT FOR THE FAINT OF HEART!

Soooooo


you know those wires that go diagonal that hold up the telephone poles? Well, Monday morning, I took a turn to wide on my bike and slammed into one of those wires. I didn't fall; I just kind of stopped, grabbed the wire to keep my balance and got off my bike. I looked down and my foot was like chopped open!!!


For those of you who are super curious and are able to look at battle wounds without getting nauseated, here is a link to the picture of my foot UN-bandaged.....

UNCENSORED PICTURE OF MY FOOT



It looked pretty wide, but my roommate in the nursing program said it's not deep so contrary to my fear, I didn't need stitches. I've been keeping it clean and taking it a little easier when I walk (except Wednesday I did my aerobics class, just barefoot and on the lowest level).

All in all, I'm fine. I found that babying it made my ankle kill, so I sucked it up and now I can almost walk normal, assuming I am wearing sandals.

the picture wasn't as bad as i expected. i expected a toe to be hanging off.

but what i love the most, is that your toes are perfectly painted. no one is looking at the gash my friend. i am envying your pedicure.
