borken finger
i'm about to describe an injury to my person. i plan to be a bit graphic. so if you're the squeamish type you might want to wait for tomorrow's post. still here? so i went to open wrestling practice. and was wrestling with the coach. after a break i noticed the pinky on my left hand was telling me it might be injured. so i checked. no obvious bones sticking out. nothing obviously broken inside. okay. kept wrestling. middle of the next set i posted my hand on the mat. and called time out break stop. my pinky was kinda bent 90 degrees. it normally bends 90 degrees forward. it wasn't bent backwards. which is good. that'd be kinda gross. it was 90 degrees sideways. so i replaced it. found some tape. and kept on wrestling for another half hour or so. was a good session. typing feels a bit weird. i tape the two finger together when i think it might be endangered. but otherwise we have some nice stiff tape that makes for a nice split. i'm hoping it heals well enough that i don't need repairs. wearing a splint for the rest of my life would be a pain. ah well. practice on monday.
