when pain becomes laughter

i have this recurring thing with my foot, where sometimes i will get sharp, shooting pains in my right foot when i walk on it. well, it's been back all week, and today it hurts to the point where i'm limping a little when i walk. this is not cool, as limping is only hot on pimps and midgets.

so, i went to webmd to diagnose it (even though i've been to the doctor before cuz i thought it might be a fracture or something), and i couldnt help but laugh at one of the options for the "check your symptoms" page: "Are you unable to free a trapped foot from an object, such as a pipe, toy, or jar?"

i mean, really? how often does this happen? i guess often enough that they needed to post it on webmd.

"honey, you better go on webmd. i got my foot caught in that fucking jar again!"

how are you supposed to make it to your computer to even search webmd if your foot is trapped? ok, i guess if it's trapped in a jar you could kind of half-hop, half-slide the jar over to the computer.

maybe you've got problem arches.

hm... something is not right with my foot, but i don't have the internet. Honey, call the liberry! Tell them about the pipe!



but seriously, you could have gout. one of sean's friends has it. he gets a lot of foot/leg pain.

gout. it's not just for octogenarians anymore.
