This is ridiculous.
So I'm cleaning out the garage on Sat in preparation for a Baby Bazaar meverything must go sales event and what do I do?? I break my middle finger on my left hand..........:doh:
Hurts like a .....well....it hurts.
So I didn't swim over the weekend and I'm gonna try practice tomorrow. The swelling has gone down quite a bit so time to see what affects I can expect this weekend. It's taped up to the index finger right now but I'm pretty sure that ain't gonna be allowed in a meet.
But c'mon, 8 days before my first meet in 19 years and I break my finger?
God, if you're trying to tell me I shouldn't swim, well, that's just not going to work.

When you tape it, be sure to use a good quality duct tape and not the usual white medical tape. It is more waterproof and is it far more manly looking.
"Oh, this? Yeah, a shark bit it nearly off the other week when I was training for the Channel. So I just poured some whiskey on it, sewed it up with some fishing monofilament and then put this special tape on it that we used to use when I was a CIA operative. Jumped back in, punched the shark in the nose and finished the workout. He followed me like a dog after that. The usual."
