Joy,

Look on the bright side - - by the time you get the cast off, the roads should
be salt-free!

If you have a cat, this is a great time for bonding!  :)

Seriously, though, you have my sympathy - - I broke my foot on my 35th birthday
(wow! was it that long ago?) - - not fun! Hope you are better soon.

Subject: blatant plea for sympathy (LVC!)

WAAAHHH!!  I can't drive my van now!!  Matilda is going to be abandoned
=
to
the driveway!

(end of vanagon content...  :-)

I am now the happy owner of two crutches, one big fiberglass splint and
=
one
broken foot bone.  It sucks!  All sympathy greatly needed!!!  Who knew
=
that
I could break my foot, just by being clumsy and tripping on the curb???
Surely not I, especially not before I continued walking another mile
and =
a
half to where I was going!  Teach me to figure I should get exercise by
walking all around town...

I have at least figured out how to carry a bowl of soup from the
kitchen =
to
the dining room table on crutches without spilling it.  And thanks to =
global
warming I don't have to contend with snow and ice on my crutches.  And
=
thank
goodness my Prius doesn't take two feet to drive, and it's my left foot
=
that
I broke!=20

Yeah yeah, I know there are MUCH more serious problems in the world.  =
But I
still want sympathy, please!!!!

Now, should I really send this email, or just quit bitching and hit the
delete key???  Oops, there goes the "send" button!

Joy=20
