wtf, mate?
i don't want to tell the story again, so i'm copy pasting an IM.
Enyi is my misspelling of a tkd freshman (sopho now) who is a rising instigator and good looking black guy of the team. his fighting skills are as yet unproven. but i like him.
[17:28] Enyi: no.
[17:28] *** Auto-response sent to Enyi: my knee was filled with death. unfortunately it all escaped through the tear in my acl.
[17:28] EmpEv1: unfortuantely yes
[17:28] Enyi: not you.
[17:28] EmpEv1: i had to choose
[17:28] EmpEv1: i pushed too hard on the earth
[17:28] EmpEv1: it was either absorb the shock into my knee and let a ligament tear
[17:28] EmpEv1: or push the earth out of alignment
[17:29] Enyi: You are as selfless as you are brave.
[17:29] Enyi: That really sucks.
[17:29] Enyi: Will there be surgery?
[17:29] EmpEv1: yeah
[17:29] EmpEv1: and then 6months of pt
[17:29] EmpEv1: yeah
[17:31] Enyi: How'd it happen?
[17:32] EmpEv1: went up for a triple kick
[17:32] EmpEv1: landed all three
[17:32] EmpEv1: didn't quite land the kick
so basically, in high style as i prefer to do most things, this is my passage into manhood i guess. not really because i don't plan on changing much, but i've been given an opportunity. getting fat and old is not an option, so i have three goals for the next 6-7 months.
1.) Stay involved with TKD. I've never met anybody who could stop me at tkd except myself (and that one world champion guy). so why stop now?
that one isn't really a goal, just how its going to be.
so restarting - 2 goals.
1.) Get back to lifting. I miss it. It makes me feel inferior to people I have no reason to feel inferior towards. And I like it. And I can't get fat. So, lifting.
2.) I guess now really is the time to start writing my book. I need to. I need your help. oh dear.
so anyway. i'm a bit upset. i can't get fat, won't get old, and dying isn't really the option so - we'll figure something out to improve. i think lifting and writing are the answer. oh and case studies. shit i need to do some case studies. building options is important.
in the mean time...i've been walking a fine line between extremely cool and dorky this summer. with andy and the guys around, we've been playing a lot of DnD almost every weekend. At the same time, I've been sleeping with that Viet girl for a month now (she was a bit acidic this past weekend (oh yes i still went out friday night and got laid, even tho i'd torn my acl 4 hours earlier (come on, who am i?)) but i wonder why she hasn't menstruated yet...pill? yes i have these thoughts. no i don't want to discuss them) and been acting fairly cool and aloof with her. she's getting more fun to hang out with and we'll quickly pass the danger zone of liking each other from too much sex and m utual association, but i'm a bit ok with that for now. i've never really had a normal crappy relationship, afterall.
but with the other part of my weekend i've been doing lots of DnD. I love that junk. seriously. it's awesome. especially with the guys. seriously - you all suck but are awesome at the same time. sean sucks a bit differently then the rest of us, dan is a hobo, andy's in china, michael is the new davey (upgrade!), and charles is a gimp - but yall are my best, oldest friends and i like you.
however, this injury affords me a new opportunity within the group. what is my epithet? not sure exactly. i could come up with one...but instead i'll try to steal charles's!!! if you've read this far you are really my friend and so i can be TOTALLY INAPPROPRIATE AND INSENSTIVE. why??? IT'S A GIMP OFF!!!
gimp off challenge!!
For Evan:
charles doesn't actually limp. i do. gimp = limp = i win.
my leg hurts - charles can't feel his legs.
i'd make a more violent minion (gimps are often minions). let's be honest - i'd gnaw on things.
i'm good at one liners.
i have limited range of motion in my leg - charles legs?
For Charles:
charles is actually gimpy for life - i'm only passing through.
charles is in a wheel cheair - this gives him all sorts of credibility and sets up solid side plots. sympathy points, spots to hide weapons, etc.
charles is good at one liners too...and he has a better evil eye. and evil laugh.
i look too good naked.
hmm that's all i can come up with off the top of my head. please post votes and additional reasons.
thanks bye!
