So the other day I’m out in the south forty cutting down a small forest of Chinese stink trees (Trees of Heaven, for those sticklers) ‘n I picked up a mess of foxtails in my sandals....
certainly wasn’t the smartest thing I’ve ever done but I took off the sandals when I got back to the porch, cleaned them out (I tho’t) took a shower ‘n forgot about it....
The next day as I walked the boyz down the street, I developed a severe pain in what my Dr calls my ‘pinky toe’....Hey, go figure! Anyway, I checked my toe to see if I’d got a cut or bruise (nothing that I c’d see but I almost never wear my glasses in the shower)...I limped around for a couple days ‘n then I went to the Dr for an unrelated matter....after she was finished, she asked if there was anything else she c’d do for me ‘n I asked her to have a look at my toe....
While I was showing her exactly where it hurt, I found what turned out t’be a...foxtail....Well, it ain’t really a bad day when you c’n leave your Dr laughing as you leave her exam room...but at least, I’m not limping anymore....
