Blood and Guts - edited and toned down

Finally, finally, finally! I have a foot injury to rival the one Stephen got back in February. May this picture serve as a warning to any of you who would not hesitate to run like a barefooted Pheidippides along beautiful sandy beaches in the middle of the night. One never knows where cinder blocks might be lying about...

EDIT:
My apologies to those who were grossed out or shocked by the photo of my bleeding foot. I have removed it for their sake. Those who missed it and are prepared for a gory sight may still see it by clicking here, but for the rest of you here's what my foot looks like now.


In other news, Cape Cod has been fabulous. My family is here for a two week vacation which is going swimmingly (hahahahaha!) except for that I split my toe. See above.

Finally, although it has very little to do with the rest of the post, other than the fact that with cable and loads of time, we get to watch a lot more baseball, I would like to add this little note:

CURT SCHILLING IS THE BEST OF THE BEST!!!!

For one thing, he just pitched a whole game without allowing a hit until the bottom of the ninth, not letting the A's get a single run. For another, I can appreciate his contribution to the fabulous 2004 Red Sox season even more now that I, too, have a bloody sock.
