9 1/2 hours


broken toed.  
last night, on my way to the fridge,  i zigged, and my toe zagged...
directly into the edge of a cupboard.
i do wish i had taken the "before" picture...
(the one where my baby toe looked like it was peeking over it's own shoulder)
 but this is the end result of almost 10 hours at the ER.  thank you, dr. choi!  
it took him and his med student a few sturdy yanks to reduce the fracture, 
but heck, that's what local anesthetic is for!
and everything is kind of funny at 3 o'clock in the morning.
4 to 6 weeks of "buddy taping" and i should be good as new.
i promise myself a decent pedicure as a reward!
