This is the second time since the summer i got a face injury in knee to waist high waves. i have surfed for 20 years and this is the second face injury. fun fun...at least i have a bottle of vicadins. Caught a few really long lefts at least, so i'm not bummed at all.

    oooo enjoy it hah. yeah i tend to get careless in little stuff. i always cover my face and curl into a ball tho, so i rarely get head injuries. but today i goofed around bailing and a fin jabbed me in the foot. its one of those annoying cut/bruise type thingy that just annoys the **** outta you lol. at least i didn't need to ice it, the session did that for me.

    in the summer i have constant bandages on my feet. foot cuts are the worst and it seems i'm always dealing with cuts and bruises on my peds.

    okay, i have to admit i didn't need them, but wash one down with a cold beer and ooohh my do i feel nice.

    besides, the advils are anti-inflammatory more so than for pain relief.

    3 weeks ago I was prescribed an anti-inflammatory, muscle relaxer, and pain killer. I didn't even fill the pain killer rx. Now I'm wishing I did just to have it on hand.
