my Lovely Toe

This is my retarded toe nail...hopefully it'll look better in about a month!!!
Once upon a time i played basketball for North Ogden Jr. High. When i was in ninth grade i was playing against this bigger gal...and we both went up for a rebound...well when she landed she landed right on my toe...ouch. My toe nail has never been the same since. It's never really bothered me. i just paint my toe nails a dark brown or somthing and it's hidden. no big deal. Well i got thinking about it lately...and my colors for my wedding is pink and orange. neither of those colors cover up the ugly dead toe nail look...and the fake acrilic nails don't stay on this toe because of how retarded it is. so i decided it was time to get it removed. freaking ouch!!! it didn't hurt when the doctor removed it because my toe was numb...but good heck! the shot was a killer!! and now...man alive! i didn't think it was possible for my toe to hurt so dang bad. for goodness sakes it's a toe. and what's retarded is when i say "i can't really go do that right now because my toe hurts...." or Tyson tells his friends at school "oh emily's toe hurts she got the toe nail removed and she needs to know if it's every 2 hours she can take advil and tylanol or if it's every 3..." yeah i pretty much sound like a baby! haha. lame me. but now the question is...should i have just delt with an ugly toe for my wedding...or is it worth the pain?? I'll find out if my toe nail grows back normal. haha. p.s. look at how huge my wrap is?! it reminds me of the old cartoons when the cartoon character would hit his thumb with a hammer and it'd get super huge and red...only mine's blue! haha the other picture is what i pretty much did all day tuesday after i got home....elevated my "toe" (sounds lame) and iced my "toe" (sounds even lamer!!) oh well you gotta do what you gotta do!! :)

That toe thing sucks! Rob hit his toe on the edge of the door a couple of months ago, and it kind of cut/ripped his toe nail back. Well, we got some ice on it and looked it over for a min., then he stood up to go in the bathroom and passed out! So, you could talk toe pain with him! Although he might black out just talkin about it! haha
