Yesterday I was walking in my flat and slammed my left small toe against the wall and split the skin open under my toenail.
Needless to say, it hurt just a tad and I was limping the rest of the day.
I think sometimes when I walk my feet kind of point outwards and my small toe is at risk of clocking a corner of a wall, just like it did yesterday when I was hurrying to the bathroom. Today I am limping when I walk and am trying to heal it with some cold gel and ice. Heating and cooling an injured toe like this helps speed up the recovery time, so I am trying to cool it down with ice and then heat it up with my little heating device. I am going to buy some crocs for the flat so that this won’t happen again, but wearing the crocs outside is even more dangerous because I will get ridiculed by all of my friends in town for wearing the unhip foot coverings. The local business that sells the crocs has a whole bunch to choose from, because most people don’t dare buy them off the shelves, so I can pick pretty much any color I want. I can wear them when I am working on ductwork in an attic and don’t have to worry about my feet getting insulation on them like they do when I wear flip flops. I will go later today with a disguise and buy the things at the shoe store and be done with it.
