I think I am going to lose one of my toenails. I didn’t notice until this morning, but one of them is quite bruised and swollen. I don’t remember hurting it and I can only guess that I did it in my game yesterday.

Strangely, despite the fact that is looks like it is going to fall off, it doesn’t hurt at all.

It reminds me of the time when I was a very little kid. I had just learned how to walk (yes, I do actually remember this) and I was walking into the apartment my parents lived in before my brother was born. Anyway, my dad wasn’t paying attention and closed the door on me. All of my toes slipped under the door and it ripped out most of my toenails. I remember crying a lot and my mom having a near conniption about it. It hurt. I do remember that. My toenails are still rather odd looking. Most of them are very small, almost slivers of nails really.

Anyway, every time I get a bruised toenail I think about that.

I find it sad that I didn’t notice until this morning. Of course, I’m not really one to stare at my feet. They are not attractive feet. My toes are oddly shaped and rather long. Like gorilla toes, but without the excess amounts of hair.

So now, I am left with the quandary. Do I want to drill a hole in my toenail to prevent it from falling out? Or do I simply want to let it do what it’s going to do?

Jeebus in mint jelly… this entry is fucking lame. I need to stop writing now.
