Life Kicked Me in The Balls

I learned another valuable lesson yesterday, that when you’re out there hanging out with your buddies, taking risks, doing fun, adventurous things in life, sometimes life will leap up and bite you in the ass. And that’s what it did to me.

I was out playing pickleball with my bros, running around, showing off, doing all the fancy things you do in pickleball. My fellow pickleball players will know what I’m talking about. And I probably leapt or jumped or pivoted way too hard and ate the floor. So I have a nice bruised up knee, a nice bruised up elbow last night that was very bloody and very not pretty. But hey, it’ll heal. Nothing’s torn or broken, thank goodness. I think it’s just a hematoma, which is a chlorophan, fancy medical word for saying it’s all swollen up and looking ugly.

But today I’m feeling a lot better. Ibuprofen helps, but hey, it’s part of life. Don’t be afraid of going out there looking like a fool and getting some bumps and bruises on you. Take care.
