sure enough.
Yep, went straight from the game to the emergency room. Again. Thanks, Babson.
All is well, however; my "fingers are probably not broken. These two bones [Dr. E. points at the x-ray after zooming in on the third and fourth phalanges of my right hand] are okay, see? No lines running through them. This one [more zooming and pointing, this time in the direction of the fourth metacarpal] is, um. Probably also not fractured. [peers at the curved line across the bone] Uh. We can't always tell immediately, though. Might want to check back so we can see if it's knitting. I'll get someone to splint and wrap your hand for you now. [mutters] And I will go check with the guy who reads these."
I asked the doctor to take your picture
So I can look at you from inside as well
They don't really bend so much right now, and the smallest one is purple and lumpy, as are the knuckles at the base of my fingers. This splint is massive. Bemco was worried about the size, hardness, and impressive speed of the swelling, so they bound up my hand, splinted my whole arm, and strapped me into a sling. Silly campus medics. Looks like I could have finished out the game after all.
Let's see, what will improve my mood (besides this incredibly wonderful rainstorm)? Ah, yes, the 32-Type Dating Test.
The Maid of Honor -- Deliberate Gentle Love Master (DGLMf)
Appreciated for your kindness and envied for all your experience, you are the Maid of Honor.
Charismatic, affectionate, and terrific in relationships, you are what many girls would call a "perfect catch" -- and you probably have many admirers, each wishing to capture your long-term love. You're careful, extra careful, because the last thing you want is to hurt anyone. Especially some poor girl whose only crime was liking you.
We've deduced you're fully capable of a dirty fling, but you do feel that post-coital attachment after hooking up. So, conscientious person that you are, you do your best to reserve physical affection for those you respect... so you can respect yourself.
Your biggest negative is the byproduct of your careful nature: indecision. You're just as slow rejecting someone as you are accepting them.
