Just tell her to take out her teeth and go to town for ol' times sakes.
Today was our annual "free brush haul off day" from the City and I worked all weekend trimming trees, shrubs, etc. and stacking them at the street plus cleaning my garage and hauling a trailer load of to the dumpster at my shop.
In retrospect maybe I didn't hydrate enough yesterday? ..who knows...anyway...showered, checked e-mail...It was like 5:30...wife was watching something on TV I wasn't interested in and I told her I was gonna take a 20 minute power nap...
Laid down....still had my clothes on..just kind of dozed in and out...opened my eyes and looked at the clock...about 30 minutes had passed and I thought about a couple of other things I wanted to get done before settling in for the night and maybe watching the Spurs game...
Just jumped out of bed, walked out the bedroom door, turned down the hall towards the living room...last thing I remember was seeing my wife watching TV and the heeler sitting there on the footrest with her sleeping...I thought that's a cute picture".
Then the lights went out. Apparently me going from a drowsy horizontal resting state to jumping up and striding down the hall caused a temporary blood/brain pressure drop and I blacked smooth out. All 6'5"-250# fell straight forward unconscious on the tile floor without even trying to break my fall.
I woke up sitting on my bed with my wife standing next to me.
From what she tells me I apparently had enough momentum going that when I went down I (maybe stumbled forward?) and crashed face first and slid right up to and into her chair. She thought my knee had buckled and I had hit my head. She kept trying to get me to stay down and I kept getting up anyway and walked back to the bedroom and sat down on the bed. I don't remember any of that. I have like a 2 minute blank spot.
Anyway, I "wake up" sitting on the side of the bed, my face feels like , I have a chipped tooth and blood in my mouth. We went to the Texas Med Clinic and had them check me out but no apparent long term concussion or heart issues but my face is seriously ed up. Got a "blood" eye (with black around it), the whole right side of my face is bruised and thick swollen...as other aches and pains came realized I had bruised knuckles, a sprained wrist, a big bruise on my sternum and didn't even bother to x-ray but doctor by feel said at least two and probably three broken ribs on the right side....so pretty much a ed up night and hasn't been a fun day at work either. Broken ribs suck. Six to 8 weeks to heal and not a damn thing they can do for them. Not the first time I have had them but I was young and playing sports in college last time and got lots of sympathy blow jobs out of the deal. Don't think that's gonna happen this time.

Sounds terrible Cowboy----but I'm sure no one here hates you enough to rejoice over something like this. Are you going to have a CT scan or MRI?
LOL, at the end of your story, but glad it wasn't worse.
damn you got some bad luck. first the almost car accident now this. Id tell you u need to stay home more often but not even that works.
I refused the CT scan. I have a scrip if I change my mind and am being vigilant for symptoms. I have no headache, nausea, blurred vision (more than normal) or any of the classic signs and have been checked out by two different doctors. Face is just bruised to . Doctor did a detailed finger exam around the orbital and everything felt OK bone wise. I may be being too stubborn but I have a high deductible and don't feel like coming a grand out of pocket for a CT scan until I feel more of a reason to.
I think $1000 is a cheap price to pay to be sure there isn't an underlying organic problem that can cause the same kind of event while you are driving or in the presence of your grandchildren. Peace of mind is expensive!![]()
youre starting to have old man injuries.
A lot of women in college participated in small sympathy jobs.
You strike me as real good fun loving trailer park neighbor...you sound like a tea party freak who really needs Obama care.
If you have a 1000k ded for a CT you need Obama care real bad.
LMAO @ what you think Obamacare is gonna be like. You are living in a fantasy world.
here's a quick glance of benefits:
No annual limits on healthcare
• Insurance companies can't drop you when your sick
• You can't be denied coverage for preexisting conditions
• Obamacare has a strong focus on preventive services
• A large improvement to women's health services
• Reforms to the Healthcare Industry to cut wasteful spending
• Better Care and Protections for Seniors
Starting January 1st of 2014 the following "benefits" must be included under all insurance plans:
• Emergency services
• Hospitalizations
• Laboratory services
• Maternity care
• Mental health and substance abuse treatment
• Outpatient, or ambulatory care
• Pediatric care
• Prescription drugs
• Preventive care
• Rehabilitative and habilitative (helping maintain daily functioning) services
• Vision and dental care for children
Detailed accounts of your daily bowel movements will be next.
I'm sure Obama's preventative clause will ensure it's a clean bowel movement
at equating high deductible with bad insurance.
Not exactly mutually exclusive.
I mean for example, I have a high deductible plan with a 2500 deductible. After that basically everything is covered. Doesnt mean I want to go around throwing out a grand for a health test that I dont feel is exactly necessary, if I've met said deductible then fine, but this is April. it. Not throwing down unless necessary.
You forgot to look at the price tag.
Unlike you, i can probably afford it.
I'll admit though, I do like how the health care companies are required to use a certain % of premiums for stuff like health care.
I think that was an Obamacare thing. Enjoyed that check last year for a few hundred bucks because those crooks at Blue Cross/ Blue Shield were robbing me.
That is a scary story Cosmic…Why not wear a full face helmet for the next couple of weeks just to be safe…
^ you tea party freaks are a strange breed....yes high DB's is related to a "lets over our employees Corporate mentality"....keep fighting against your own interests you don't have the numbers to win another national election any way...good ing riddance to all you old racists bas s...you guys can't die off fast enough so that the rest of the civilized world can move forward
not in a million yrs...my parents have me set up very nicely...you can't complete with this black guy...so just keep writing your little bull ass stories...stick to what you know....middle of the road white guy is all you are
WTF? This is how my high deductible plan works:
I pay a nominal premium (less than I would with my own private insurance by far), nothing happens to me, I pocket money essentially. Something happens to me, it gets paid for out of the money the government says I can set aside for this .
This was a ing Republican thing when it started moron!![]()
With that at ude I have the utmost CONTEMPT for you.
And yeah, I'm just a middle of the road white guy that works hard and tries to end every day knowing he accomplished something. May not be much compared to a setup like you buy hey..Us white trash guys just gotta keep pluggin on making things and fixing things and trying to run our businesses honestly while you high class plantation s make fun of us and hope we die off.
Eep, took the bait.
thanks for the blog entry. why did you have to post this thread in two diff sub forums, though?
Doesn't want to leave out anyone who may hate him.
