MRI and pork chops
Ok, just got call about MRI. The MRI looks like about 20 slices of pork chops (starting at the ankle and moving up to the knee about every 3/4" or so.) Freaky! but really cool to see the technology
There are two huge blood masses in the back of my leg from the muscle tear, size of golfballs. So the options are to do nothing and let the body dissolve them and heal at it's rate. Or they can cut me open, scoop out the masses, stitch me up and hope for the best.
Risk? there is a major vein where the incision would be. There is also a major nerve down that way as well. The consulting doctor actually talked me out of the surgery that the original doctor recommended. He was all in a panic.
Consulting doctor said that if I had some time to take off of work, keep it elevated, take it easy, check in at the end of the week. we should go that route. If it was a painful as friday night, he would also recommend doing the surgery.
So, I'm taking the week off for vacation. Hang out here and do some little projects I've been wanting to do for a while and enjoy the drugs.
maybe even update this hopeless blog.

More soccer trash talking
Soccer is off for a while now. We talked some trash. kicked some @ss and did well for the session.
Kris twisted her ankle but refuses to slow down, keeps playing on the womens league. She keeps going out there, like a trooper. Took a high kick in the nose the other night as well. Figured a little blood would get those crazy arms a swingin but she has much restraint. I'm afraid she isn't healing that ankle properly though.
Me? I'm done for a while. We won our game and proceeded to scrimmage with some youngin's since the field was free. Big mistake. All was well until about 20 minutes into it. Felt like Dick Cheney shot me in the back of the leg. I really thought something hit me. Turned around and said "What the F@#$!!!" Took another step and I was down like a sack of taters, crying mommy! Tore my calf muscle. hurt like nothing I've ever felt before. Still on the RICE program. Day 4 and it's slowing getting better; swelling down, bruising coming out and the boss thinks I'm a wimp because I called in monday. Well, maybe I am a little. But it ain't much fun taking a day off from work, only to sit there watching TV for 14 hours because you can't really do anything worthwhile!! oh joy! Lisa Loeb just went on another weird date. Ruud the Bug guy showed some strange wasp that paralyzes his tarantula victim and proceeds to lay an egg in it's abdomen and Colbert Report is STILL the funniest show on TV!
