mmmmk, to rephrase for art so he dosent go @#$#@ nuts lol:

About 3 weeks ago *lets just round to a month* I was going on a lovely bike ride, in which, my headphones got tangled in the spokes as i was travelling downhill. One hand went down to the tire to untangle the headphones, whilst the other was positioned on the FRONT BRAKE *EMPHASIZE TO ALL THAT THE FRONT BRAKE IS THE WORK OF THE DEVIL*
So, front brake + tangled headphones + kari ann = a flip over the handlebars.
I was pretty banged up, bruises everywhere, and my arm was pretty dang messed up. its been hurting ever since of course, but hey, i thought it was just going to heal, as did my mom.

FLASHFORWARD HOLY CRAPPOOO TO LAST WEEK
So me and my mom were eating lunch, she takes a gander at my hand and goes " whats that on your hand"
me: "oh, just a bumpy thing i've had since my crash, here, feel it, its wierd"
mom: "woa gross. gotta get that exraysed"
me: "mmk"

FLASHFORWARD TODAY WOOAOAOA:
My sister works at a doctors office where they do x-rays. so, we get this little hand x-rayed, and then she puts up the picture xray thing up in the little light box for us to see.
sister: "it dosent look broke"
me: "Cool, good!"
sister: "let me go get the doctor so he can let you go"
doctor man comes in.
Doctor: "you really broke that eh."
me: *laughs, thinking he's joking* yea
Doctor: "what er doctor do you want me to send you to?"
me: *laughs again* ehh. heheh
doctor: no really, you severely compress fractured this whole left side of your hand.
me: 'oh"

so yea, its been "compreessed fractured"(which is just a fancy term for smashed the bones together really really badly) for about a month now. oh well.

PACKAGE ARRIVED ART! WOOOTOOOOT! THANKS SO MUCH! I LOVE IT, love love it. cant wait to use it tomorrow.

Bad news about the hand, but you only need one to operate the camera, don't you?

What? Are you saying your hand has been broken for a month and you just found out about it? Or you broke your hand a month ago at your sisters and you just found out? I'm cornfused. :/
In either case, why did they make you go sit in the corner? ;-) Ok, no seriously, cool pic even though you look a bit distraught.

didja get the package? Let me know when ya do so I don't go postal at the postal service. ;-)
