As you may or may not know, today marks the beginning of the Summer of Zoe. Unfortunately, Friday night I was mowing the lawn and the mower struck a stone and shot it out, into my ankle.

You read correctly... INTO my ankle.

After spending 6 hours in the ER, they determined that nothing was broken, but literally the entire instep side of my foot was severely bruised. This isn't a pity party, but I gotta say that it's the worst pain I've ever felt in my life. The stone hit with such force that it split the skin over my ankle bone and required 5 stitches.

Now, considering that this week has been complete hell because:

Somebody scraped my car in the parking lot at work.

Someone at work has been trying to get my ass in trouble with the customer and has been telling lies about me.

A rock hit my windshield and starred it (what is it with stones this week?)

My wife left for two months in Boise with her family.

The day before I'm supposed to by a Jet-ski, I end up getting stitches and can't go in the water for 2 more weeks.



So tonight I'm going to do what any red-blooded would do...

Drink a lot of

WTF is this a conspiracy against S2k owners? Earlier this week I was weedwacking a steep bank and I slipped and cut open and bruised the out of my left leg. Fri. night after taking my S out for a spin I cleaned her off and noticed a stone chip right down to the paint . Last night I got a stone right into the windshield which left a nice star in the glass. Are we doomed?

Thanks guys...

I guess I could handle it better if it wasn't my gas/break foot that was injured.
