Tradition

Well, I have a lot of catching up to do here on the blog...

First, I wanted to share how we celebrated Laurie's birthday. We took a trip to Urgent Care. Sounds fun, huh? I dislocated my wrist and had to go in to make sure it wasn't broken. How, you might ask, did you dislocate said wrist? A tickle fight. Laurie and I were being very silly and she was tickling me (I am extremely ticklish). I playfully pushed her away from me and she grabbed my hand and pulled. With an audible "pop" my wrist dislocated. We were a tad worried that it might have been broken - there are so many little bones in your wrist, so we went ahead and headed out to Urgent Care. Our friend, Marc, came with us. When I was finally seen by the doctor, he palpated my wrist and said that it felt dislocated but it needed to be x-rayed anyway. No broken bones on the x-ray and the doc said that he couldn't tell from the x-ray if it was dislocated, so he sent me home in a wrist brace to wear for a week. Well, when we got back to the car, I reached over and twisted my wrist to buckle my seatbelt and there was another audible "pop" - this time my wrist popping back in! Yay for being all fixed!

Laurie and I have spent several of her birthdays in the ER or Urgent Care, so we were just following tradition. The following Friday, we went out with Marc for Laurie's birthday dinner and had yummy sushi. Hopefully, I'll be giving her her birthday gift from me soon. I'll give a hint that it's woven...
