    Good gawd look at all the veins popping out of those globes. Looks like a Chicago Metro road map

    I now always cringe whenever I hear about pro athletes that rupture their achilles because the rehabilitation and recovery time to get back to 100% is ridiculous. My achilles snapped like a rubber band while I was pushing myself on a long skateboard. That was several years ago and I still don't have full strength in my left calf.

    I got a big ole mole cut off my face yesterday. 5 stitches so I'm out of the water for a week. Good swell coming this week, too.

    Life is pain.

    Agreed. Get some good photos of your buds.

    A rollover kept me out for six months, but I learned tai chi and am a better person because of it.
    Maybe you'll have a chance to strengthen your relationship with a certain someone special, watching romcoms and looking at paint samples. Then as soon as you get better, go back to being a d!ck. That was my M/O.

    Good luck man! Take calcium and vitamin D.. it's gonna suck but maybe you can turn the down time into a positive upper body building time. Always a way to improve your surfing even when your out. I've broke a few bones in my life and the recovery always sucks but at least it's not 1756 when they would've just cut the thing off.

    Thanks fellas!

    Yesterday I got started by re-repairing the dings on the quiver. These "minor injuries" suck, but you're right, it could be worse. Gotta be really careful what you put your body through as you age.
