Warning: Picture of foot enclosed.

So using Carly's style of accurately estimating percentages, I am 134.2389% positive that I just broke my right foot. OWWWWWWWWW.

I was in the shower, and I had just extracted a handful of conditioner. I placed the bottle of conditioner back on the rack, and I proceeded to work the goop through my hair. WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, completely out of nowhere, the bottle of conditioner jumps from the rack and stabs itself into my foot. Twice.

Now, granted, this wasn't a normal bottle of conditioner. It was unusually large because I like them that way, and because I go through them more quickly than the average person. Also, I think I had been overzealous in my squeezing because the suspect bottle of conditioner was so tightly wound that the front and back almost touched in the middle of the bottle and all of the conditioner was engorged on the sides. If you can imagine.

And just because I am often accused of embellishing my stories to make them sound cooler, I have enclosed a picture. Doesn't it look like the marks of Christ?



My foot apologizes for not being properly done up. My toenail polish is a mess because I didn't realize that today would be a photo op.

Also, you may be able to see a bruise on the left side of my foot, a little below the stigmata. That's from yesterday. Yes, this has happened before.

P.S. If anyone dares to make fun of my long toes, I will never speak to you again.
P.P.S. The second picture is 10 hours post-incident.

it's okay, Dave says I have ugly feet, despite of my supposed "beauty"...

Your foot looks painful. We bought a new crock pot on Friday and my husband was taking it out of the box and the crock fell out of the base onto his right foot which is the leg that had the blood clot in Feb. It was already swollen but got much "fatter" in minutes and yesterday the "bruise" appeared. He's on blood thinners and I thought he was bleeding inside the foot but wasn't. You need to get a smaller bottle or wear boots while you shower. lol
