Cool. I look forward to seeing them. I still look at my new feet and they don't look like *my* feet. Wonder when they will?

Bunions are sexy when Crimpie gets them.

To scare a nerve, you scream "boo" really loudly! Haha
To scar a nerve, you pinch it between two bones for a long time. :)
Thanks DJ. :)

Awesome! Wow, your foot looks way better than mine did (i.e., no blood and rainbow bruising). How is it feeling? Can you feel the screw? I could feel one of mine for some time (creepy and a little painful) but I've since gotten used to it.
Two more months - at most I bet - and you'll be having fun again. My feet were happier with road riding before they were with many climbing moves. Straight-down weighting was okay from quite early (with decent hands). Smearing of course has been the hardest, but it's getting there. I've not the guts to even look at a crack yet. :)
When you look down, does it look like your foot? Mine still don't. I expect to see my hooves and yet, some nice looking feet are there.

Well, let's see some photos of that finger then!
edit: Whoa - I'm missed Leeper's previous post while I was in the tropical paradise of Houston. Very cool. I see your rainbow bruises now. How is it feeling? Is foot two going to get it too?
edit edit: Jaybro, part of my surgery was chopping off the big bump. It can be done! That probably more than anything changed the way my hoof looks.

Ahh, it's nothin' compared to hoof-fest over here.
But, it's still effed-up so it compares somehow....
Sweet little deconstruction number eh?

About 3 hrs later when that morphine hit my carotid arteries for the first time, it got a lot more manageable.
It was easy to understand how those combat vets got too fond of that stuff...
