well, I deserved it.
I was goofing off on the last day of the womens' bowling league
and strained the ligaments in my wrist...  I'm wearing a wrist brace
from elbow to fingers.. tallk about awkward... and oh yeah, it's my
right wrist.  I'm right handed... don't expect much from me until
this is healed...  bah.  It's too hard to type and maneuver the mouse.

Dear Joan,

    At least it weren't a power saw you grabbed. I lost my whole right hand,
and one leg, and was cut clear in half. It all healed. You will be fine.

                                Be good,
                                 Johnny

Your hand and leg grew back?
Anywho..
That sounds like it hurt, Joan.

Oooh!! Joan!! Poor you.

But I think we'll have to say you're malingering if you don't come up
with some new ascii-art by next week. I mean, really, I thought you
could draw ascii-art with your hands tied behind your back so a little
sprain shouldn't be a problem for you... and don't forget that you can
always draw with your feet!

In the meantime, I've heard that martinis are very good for fixing hurt
wrists.

Juggling is great, but you must learn to do it with balls first.

I remember when you did that...
Glad the leg and hand grew back.

I'll survive... my fingers work.  It's just the
wrist that hurts... even worse today.  :(
Thanks for all the get well wishes!

See, if I take off the brace,
 I can make some ASCII art!  woohoo!

I agree with lliz. You are definately looking for sympathy if you
havn't made a new ascii post over the weekend.  :)

Johnny, Are you sure about that healing thing? I've been reading your
posts for awhile now. Either you are in fact typing with your feet or
you just skipped a few too many grades. ;)

    That just isn't so, Laura. I have been loosin' parts an' regrowin'
the thangs, since I can allus 'member. I can think of one tyme, I had
both ears cut off in one of them whirlin' grain combines. You couldn't
tell it, a'tall, in just a few days. Then there was the time I was completely
chopped in half, by ah ol' automated, hydrolic-junk-car crusher. A few
stiches, a kouple of bottles of everclear, and two weeks lazin' aroundt,
and I was like new.
    It's allus that way. Things jus' sorter seem to work out.

JRO

P.S.: I wouldn't worry 'bout Joan makin' ascie. I reckon she will git back
      to it, affer she sweats off sum of that hootch I sent her. Could be
      a day er too, or evfen a month. I figger she will live through it,
      though.
