Otto says…
no breakee Mr. Joe.

That’s Otto up above. He snapped an x-ray of my ankle. Three of em, actually.
I gave it the name Otto after the character for the Simpsons. It was the first name that came to mind as my (apparent) stoner of an x-ray tech was laughing aloud about the date of my accident (04.20).
Anyway, I was sitting on this “picker” when Otto made his move:

Interesting name for a tool that moves people. Picker.
So, my ankle is sprained on both sides. R.I.C.E., baby.
R stands for Rest, which means I have time to watch apropos videos sent to me by friends like Kurt. “Ankle Injuries”, by Fujiya Miyagi:

Hey Joe, be glad that it’s just sprained. However, I’m sure “Otto” told you that it’s can be just as bad as a break. Stay off the “hoof” and keep elevate, as much as you can (realize that it’s not an easy task with PJ & Katie.)
Clarification, K derby is 5/3 (also Dad’s “belated b-day party.) Kinda of cool that Dad and mine b-days revolve around historic sporting events. We will, of course, be betting horses in green or w/Irish names.
Love K&JPsr
I’m thinking Cowboy Cal is going to be Dad’s favorite. You’ll probably dig Z Humor after Zambrano or something.
You must be psychic. I read the probable horses this morning and those are definitely in the running. FYI, there are two “Z” horses - Z Fortune. I also like gray horses, however, Monba, had a “foot issue.”
How’s your “foot issue?”
Not psychic, I just know you guys a little bit.
Foot is fat, but not as fat. I’m missing hockey again this week I’m afraid. Bums me out - two weeks in a row. But I’ll be back in time for the playoffs the following week.
And I’m signing up for ice real soon.
Thanks for asking.
throw some butter on it and get back out there! don’t be a wimp!
I was just roughousing with the kids and Katie fell on her head. Not hard or far, but I told her to put some dirt on it and she was all better.
Butter?
yes butter. i prefer land o lakes. sweet cream and salted. it’s usda grade ‘aa’, when graded. it also comes in a ‘flavor rotect wrapper!’
Just like your condoms…
Dood! Holy crapola - get that ankle better!
Thanks. It’s starting to come around.
