Note to self: do not jump into the pool when you're not sure how shallow the water is. I did this today at Joy & Mike's place, and landed on the tip of my left foot, gashing my big toe and ripping off 1/3 of its nail, as well as scraping the top of the foot. I was so shocked that all I could say, to the benefit of the young children present, was "I have an owie." Then there was blood. Ewwww. "Doc" H taped it up, as he has done with his own self-induced foot injuries. Now I'm sporting a small toe-turban, and will likely have to wear flip-flops for the rest of the week. This look will go over sooooo well at work....
