i hurt me.

Hi. If we are, in fact, being Watson... i wonder if my affinity to self destruction comes from genetics, or just idioticy. A month or so ago i had a tumor (no cancer, thanks) removed from my right thumb. it's healing nicely, but until thursday last i was still favoring it.
I was favoring it until I put a 1/4 inch drill bit through the meaty part of my left hand muscles. now i have decided that my right hand has to do the work while the muscles knit together that i punched through.

recently... i have also smashed my knee into a big steel gear on our (shops) manual winch, and almost flipped both a tractor and a fork lift (closer in the tractor than the fork lift) today.
My bosses wife thinks i need to slow down and pay more attention.
p.s. the e.r. is for pansies... i don't think i'll go again. they just did the same things to my bludgened hand that i would have done. oh well... to live and learn.
much love,
sam.

I have a dream...

I dream that one day, I will come over to your house and say "Hi how are you?" and you will not start off by saying "Well I hurt me..."

I have a dream....that when I log onto the family blog, I will not see a comment with my name on it, which will make me scratch my head and think "Did I write this and just not remember??"

It's official. I'm changing your name to Francis. ;)

By the way Sam, you should really stop hurting yourself. Maybe if you talked to yourself more while you're working? "Do not drill hand...do not flip forklift..." What do you think?

Mom, YOU need to change YOUR name because I was on Blogger long before you were!

PS, Francis is an ugly name!

PPS, my login has a picture and yours does not. That is how I tell who is who.

Also, you can tell which ones are mine because they are so profound and wittily insightful. :)

Yeah--and that's why people confuse us! ;)
