S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y Night!

Ouch. If it starts to turn a bruised color though, I'd think about going to the doctors office. Usually a lot of swelling and bruising will indicate a level 2 sprain aka a partially torn tendon. Couple of those and it may lead to surgery. Heh, I should know, one more and I may have to have surgery myself

Oh, no. No! :eek:

It's swelling a good deal, but I did take a hot bath so that may have helped. I have ice on it now.

No bruising so far.

Good advice, Jag, thanks! Here's hoping it's nothing much.
 
Hadn't considered that. Thanks.

Does that have the problem with slivers that I've heard horse hair sometimes does?

Nope, no slivers. There are several sites online that show you how to make your own. Just remember that untwisting the rope will make it longer so be prepared to use a shorter length or to cut once untwisted. The type of rope used will determine how stingy though. Most I've seen/felt are softer than the average horse hair. Have heard you can untwist a sisal rope in the same way if you are looking for more abraison/sting.

I plan on having a collection so I can fill any need. As it were. ;)

First I have to get deep enough into the life to find some one to play with.

There was one sub at the last play party I attended done up in a '40s femme fatale outfit. Damn, did she look yummy. :)

Not a problem. If there is no bruising within 24hrs then you're in the clear. Plenty of ice and of course a good compression bandage helps. Walgreens, Walmart, and I think most drug stores will sell some that are more compact, instead of wrapping like an ACE bandage, they're designed specifically for the ankle and thus are a lot more comfy and easier to get to in shoes. Either way, I'd wear something like that for a couple of days to a week. That'll really help heal the ankle, plus, the conformed ones will give you good support to do things almost like normal [little stiffness].

ETA: Oh and elevating the ankle when you lay down is very helpful too.
 
You can build a greenhouse and you'd have to register your guns. They're not banned out right.

The NRA has a lot to answer for.

So does Canadian Customs. When I came to visit with my NRA sticker in the back window, they assumed I must have a gun in there somewhere and searched the truck for half an hour.

Another time, when I was hunting and had all my paperwork to import the rifle, it only took about 15 minutes. Go figure! :D

But buiding and maintaining a greehouse would be such a pain after living where they all grow outside . . . :eek:
