The Stick
|
When I broke my leg dirt biking, while waiting 30 minutes for the EMT (and the dirt track was on 5 miles from the hospital) many other riders came by, told me to hang in there, and regaled me with the time they broke their (insert limb/bone and/or multiple experiences). It was then I decided bodily injury was so common I no longer had the desire to continue to drive vehicles with only two wheels on the dirt or the street. Between the idiot holding on the the handle bars, and the idiots out there in cars, just seems like only a matter of time.
When I was in college I did the hang gliding thing. Took classes, bought a glider, and spent a whole weekend hang gliding. Had a great time, very exhilarating, but saw a couple of very experienced pilots crash, then learned 1 in 20 hang glider pilots Die hang gliding. Sold the glider and haven't looked back.

I'm in over my head gentlemen.
Theres three women now. I'm dating one. The other is crazy for me. And the other one is into me, but we haven't been out yet. The first is amazing to be with, and pretty average as far as most things go. She's a coworker. We're pretty hot n heavy. She's French. The second is a midwestern girl moving out here. We screwed a bunch in STL. also very interesting, and above average looks. The third is the Russian. We haven't been out but she's into me. And she is a 10/10, as perfect as a human body can get. I know zero about her. I didn't give a s*** about women all winter, sitting and and sulking in my condo drinking alone. In the last month I've made an attempt to go out and be personable. Now I have to beat them off with sticks. Which just reaffirms in my mind that I am awesome.

I think my list of injuries is too long... I've been hit by a car, blew my hand up and ended ip in the burn ward, dropped 20', landing on my shoulder and head, bashed my head into the rocks skiing, twisted my right leg at the knee 180*. Those are the bad ones. The list goes on.

Oh yeah, got kicked in the face playing mud football, breaking my nose. Amazingly, I've never broken a bone.

You want an update?
I can't believe I'm saying this.. She's a french version of my ex-fiancee. In every way but one... She may be better. I'm going to finish this bottle of rum and let my brain try and work this one out.

Nope. Nooooooo. I didn't say that. Not possible.
It's not possible that someone I've barely known through work for 5 months is better than the woman I knew for 6 years that I was going to freaking marry. Not yet at least.

Her apartment is nicer than my condo though.
And she can cook.

Schumi's always on a roll when slightly inebriated. Just watch out for those couches!

Schumi may be in deeper than me... Idk...
Aight guys, this could very well be my last post until monday the 20th. I may be able to get a blurb or two in with my phone before we actually hit the trail, but I have my doubts. If I can't make another post, you boys behave, and don't let things get too out of hand... This means you too mike.
