bruised tailbone/pelvis definately some spinal issue probably. DONT DO A STANDUP BY ACCIDENT AND THEN HIT A PUDDLE

I am almost fully recovered from doing a belly flop onto the ground on Saturday. Luckily I landed on grass as I think I hit my head and got bruises at the end of my ribcage, but these things would have been worse on concrete or asphalt. My right arm has been jacked up since then, but each day is less and less painful...I'm at about 75-80% of normal...

so i just got back from a missions trip from nicaragua. while i was out there we had some free time, and one of the nicaraguans had a regular skateboard, but there was no hills. except for this big dirt one. so being longboarding deprived, i found eight long wooden planks and laid them on the dirt hill and began to ride the board down the planks. its hard to stay on the planks because they were so narrow. but i made it all the way down a couple of times and then i fell and that resulted into blood. it was pretty funny though.

i also forgot to mention that it also resulted into a third buttcheek that was black and blue.

I think I somehow pulled a muscle or strained the thigh muscle on my standing leg by pushing uphill

Now it kind of hurts from moving the leg around the joint connecting the thigh to hip.

has that happened to anyone? or it could be my weak left leg growing up

Fell off my shortboard popsicle stick bombing a parking garage and hit some stupid bump in the middle of my turn. Landed on my left hand (*snap*) and flipped onto my head. Good thing I wore a helmet. Fractured solex and ulna (forearm bones). My forearm was completely sideways when i got up. I'm wearing a splint until i can see an orthopedist 10 days from now. no pics cuz its gross.
My new board just came in today. Had it come a day sooner i might not have fallen.

But dont you have to pay more in taxes from your income?

'Sploded my face, 20-odd stitches, hefty concussion, stretched knee ligaments, bruised rib and a few pins in my thumb. Ditches are deadly.

Yes, to an extent. However, the Canadian populous has just an easy of time buying luxury goods as other nations, but the looming threat of surprise medical bills is practically non-existent here.

A worthy expense...come on, Obama

Still recovering from a hypertension injury to my right knee, managed to skate today for the first time in a week =)
Its coming right... I was worried when I couldn't walk for a good 3 days after the accident.

**oatmeal** · 08-02-2009 02:06 AM

I broke my arm last week, and because I am not a Canadian resident it cost me $600

**[(Erik)]** · 08-02-2009 02:25 AM

I just had surgery on my foot

**DELETED** · 08-04-2009 11:41 AM

My ankle/knee has healed enough that I can skate for a while, that's pretty goddamn nice.
