Touch of Gray

I will get by
I will survive

It's times like these that I wish we had a bidet.

And if you think I'm down, let me fire the first shot. I aint giving up nothing.

Just give me a minute to find a way to extend my finger.

Like AHHHHnold says

I'll be back.

pinky's are like little toes not really necessary. Heal strong.

Fell on some ice while riding in Prescott with Dave and Chad. It was at a creek crossing on Walker Road and I should have rolled on straight through, but turned slightly to take a better (and less wetter) line. Then I biff it and did a kartwheel on my fingers.

Middle finger is broken too according to that x-ray. May have ring finger on left hand broken too...am icing down but may get to the point where the ring has to be cut off. Big, blue, nasty.

But I got my thumbs and index fingers so i can still pick my nose and open beer bottles

Oh man... that so sucks! At least it happened now and not in a few weeks.

Oh God - three fingers broken??? You can't really have them just cut all three off...

glad you got back home before the pain meds wore off, at least.

Grab a stick from the woods...wrap the end of the stick in toilet paper....wipe as needed. You should be good for a few weeks.

On a more serious note: Heal up dude!

Sorry about the injuries Matt. Heal up quick, and I think those Ergon grips will help the hands to feel better..

Damn man, I'm laughing, cringing, and crying a bit all at the same time.

No words that really work.

Dude.
