13 years ago today…
i broke my right leg, compound fracture of the tibia and fibia, playing on a trampoline at a party. My bestfriend’s brother and I were jumping and my leg when through the side springs and snapped in two. Boy did that hurt! I saw my own bone. I was home for Christmas break. I wanted a new computer but my dad was out of the country on business and my mom didn’t want to spend 4K without him. My mom told me to go out and have fun. She didn’t know she would be meeting me in the emergency room a few hours later. I was in shock but in so much pain at the same time. I remember I was wearing my favorite jeans and they had to be cut off me at the hospital to get to my leg. I have lovely scares to always remind me of that night. I do want to write more about it but have to take Mason to get a haircut…

Hey! I like the “new” look of the blog. It’s bright and airy. As for the old trampoline.. I had this big cousin and he was the same age as I. When I would go to his house, we would wrestle on the trampoline, and I beat him
like 1000 times. He never won. Until one day, when were were about 14, and I was getting too “cool” for that kinda stuff. Now, when I say “big” I mean like twice my size (I was skinny then!)… so I’m like 90 pounds, and he’s like 2 bills… and BOOM, it finally comes to him. He’s bigger than me, and all he has to do to beat me is to get me down, and sit on my back. That’s just what he did. And I screamed, with my dying breath, “I give, I give”… That’s the last time I’ve been on a trampoline. So, my record is 1000 to 1, but I left a trampoline loser…
