allright. NONE of my posts seem to be following the hiaku rule very well, so I'm scrapping it, basically.
because some of you don't know me and might be looking at this, here's what's happened BEFORE and after July. there is a month gap between this and my next post, at least.
So here's what happened.
Due to a rattlesnake bite, my right thumb had to be amputated in early June/late May. I was bitten in early may and walked around with a rotting thumb for several weeks until the doctors could determine how much was dead. The bones were decalcifying, and the tendons were dead, so they couldn't do a skin graft, and I was offered several options- go around without a right thumb for the rest of my life, or have my second right toe cut off and secured in it's place.
well, I decided that I wanted to keep my toes where they belonged, and I was left handed anyway, so I kept the toe. No, I didn't keep the thumb in a jar or anything.
I think it was thrown away. It was a western Diamondback (C. atrox) that bit me, and it hurt. it still hurts today (I am writing this almost 6 months later, rattlesnake bites are bad) off and on, especially when it's cold out and when It's about to rain. I experienced phantom pain for awhile in my right "thumb," sometimes it would itch under the nail (which is ridiculous because it is no longer there).
Me and my girlfriend of two years broke up in september and she started dating one of my friends, adam.
I decided not to go to OU and to become an auto mechanic. that's about all. have fun!
