The BIG toe

It all began a week ago. I got a lot of dirt in my toenails after running around barefoot during ultimate frisbee. So, I dug it out. It was hard work. I believe I got too far under the nail. It started to swell and kind of hurt.
Then I decided to apply some pressure on the affected region. I sank the "scraper" from my nail clippers into the swollen mass and voilĂ ! I was a happy man.
Then, the next day, I tried again and bam! The happiness keeps on coming. Eventually, it will go back to the same old boring big toe, but in the meantime I am enjoying its slow return to normalcy.

Jesus!! Glad I didn't look at your pus-y toe before a meal!!!!How gross is that close up!!!

Hope all your wounds have healed by now and you have learned to if not stop and smell the roses,(do they have roses in vietnam???) at least drive abit more cautiously..

Things are much the same here in France
