I stubbed my toe today. It wasn't a regular toe stubbing, either. It was a toe that had already been stubbed a few days ago. Scratch included. So, I stubbed it again today. Hard. Actually, it's not even my toe. I have this huge thing on my foot, I believe it's called a bone spur. It's really big. Uncomfortably big. And now it's mildly pussy. Not pussy as in vagina, but sort of ooze-like. There has to be a real word for that. Anyway, I think I need a band-aid.
I have really manly hands and feet. I use them, though, that's why. My fingers look like they could actually rip your nose off if I played the "got your nose" game with you. I'd be afraid if I saw them coming towards my face. I've ruined them with years of play-doh fun, drawing and intense knuckle-cracking which happens to be one of my favorite past-times. Screw cigarettes, give me a knuckle with displaced synovial fluid and I'll snap that shit right back into place. If only the 'cracking' experience lasted longer than a milli-second. Buuuuut I guess that's how all good things go; they're fleeting.
I'm pretty content with my life right now, but I feel like I could do more. I travel, I art, I work... I buy stuff, which is always fulfilling. Something's missing, though. It's sort of indescribable, but it almost feels like a huge pit in my belly. I hate feeling that way, but it's also really hard to get rid of, kind of like my bone spur. It's really fucking annoying and if I ever did get rid of it, it'd be this whole huge operation where part of me would be shaved down. I don't want to lose a part of me. I guess in the end it'd be worth it (almost as much as metal legs.) Oh well, c'est la vie, non? Oui.

So did you decide if you are going to have the surgery or not? My cousin Peggy had it and said it was totally worth it. Insurance should cover a thing like that. And I am sure in the long run it would feel better. Is it on both feet or just one?
