Broke my arm...(SRY)

Yeti · Jul 15, 2002, 03:59 PM

Expect my post count to go down... Broke my arm... don't know how i'm gonna work.

This is a paoin

DallasStar · Jul 15, 2002, 04:24 PM

how'd you break it? (and how do you lower your post count by breaking an arm?

)

Yeti · Jul 15, 2002, 05:22 PM

I'm talking about posts per day... LOL

I was playing frisbee with a couple friends of mine at a church gathering at 3:00 today (sunday). Dove for the disc and landed wrong. Spent three hours at the local (Howard County) Emergency room. Now my left hand is in a cast.

Cant type!!! It took me three minutes to type this up with my right hand. :/

I don't know how he did it, but personally I type a hell of a lot slower with one hand than with two...it'd tend to make my post count not increase as quickly as usual. (Cut him some slack, he's got a bum wing and typing is probably a WHOLE lot less than pleasant right now.)

Hope it gets better soon mate, try and take it easy.

JavaFox · Jul 15, 2002, 07:04 PM

Damn, I am sorry to hear that.

Get well quick, Yeti!

Malus · Jul 15, 2002, 07:23 PM

Get well soon.

Yeti · Jul 16, 2002, 02:24 AM

Thanks... hopefully in about 2 weeks... i'll be able to type... maybe longer. :/

HsuGotaQ · Jul 16, 2002, 04:46 AM

Bah... you will probably start posting again like crazy sooner than you think. Hope that hand heals fast

GravY · Jul 16, 2002, 04:52 AM

place a big long stick in your mouth to take place of your left hand, and alot of practice, and you won't have to loose your Posts per Day..

but really sorry to hear about your luck.. I have yet to break a bone in my 29yrs, I should have many times, but I guess I have strong bones, those Milk commercials did the body good

me runs to find wood to knock on...

I once broke my finger because I was paying so much attention to the ball while playing raquet-ball that I didn't realize that my finger was in the way

. I couldn't believe myself after I did it

The guy that invented the frisbee died last week, perhaps you should have given him a mention at your church gathering!

OMG poor Yeti! Being punished by god (via the creator of the frisbee) during a church gathering. Harsh man!

Simple. Sip some cold beer and "supervise" the peons working. If the pain in the arm gets worse send a runner to the off-licence for some vodka

You send me some peons and i will.. Lol.. i'm only 18 and i am JG at my job. I get to do all of the stupid things like imaging pc's printer maintenance and wiring while my coworkers are usually doing testing of Cytrix or Macola conversions. Go figure.

I upgraded the ram in some stock dells today.... new meaning to the phrase "with one hand tied behind my back". Fortunately it was a half-day... had an X-ray taken of my wrist at the Orthapedists (did i get that right?).

As you can see though... typing one hand while looking at the keyboard is workin out well

Bah... so it's gonna help you say a lot of things in fewer words, but still keep the high posts/day average. It'll be a great learning experience.
