gotta love dumb injuries…
Just to start this, I am probably the only person known to man who can be injured by something as simple as a laptop! Late last week I managed to meet the wrong side of my laptop case as it shifted in my speedy turn from my vehicle toward the elevator hoping to catch it in the parking garage. In doing so like I said the weight shifted funny and my finger went to the side in a very unnatural way.
It wasn’t at first a big deal, just a little sore, but by day two it was hurting when I attempted to move it, felt swollen at the knuckle and more so just was uncomfortable.
I taped it and kept on going although I didn’t hit the gym for three days because things were not falling in favor of being able to work out with some family things going on. Then today I returned to the gym, thinking my finger was feeling better until about half way through my workout when it became apparent that things clearly were still not ok. My finger began to ache and I was forced to settle for cardio after a good chest but subpar back workout.
I did feel good about the fact that I pushed through but can’t wait to be 100% again so I can hit up my workout hardcore again. Until then it is just another reminder of what kind of stupid injuries only I am capable of…hehe

i’m the guy you’ll see at the gym who constantly fails to keep track of his legs and smacks the front of the shin on something, then wipes the tears away while acting like i’m sweating!
