Fractured Ribs??!!

I went to the chiropractor today because of my constant back pain. It's not confirmed yet but my chiropractor thinks that my upper back ribs might have been fractured from my car accident from a year and a half ago. She has to take a closer look at my x-rays to make sure if they were fractured, but either way my spine is all out of wack from my accident. Of course Kaiser refused to take an x-ray of my back went it happened since "it's all muscular." Let just say I'm slightly pissed off and if my chiropractor tells me that in fact my ribs were fractured, someone is going to be writing a lot of angry letters and making angry phone calls to Kaiser. I hate Kaiser.

Mexico Pictures

I haven't forgotten to post pictures from our Mexico Mission Trip from June. Hopefully Jesse and I are planning to go down to Mexico in October for some leaders training. Here you go!

I knew this would happen sooner or later - finishing my last set of deads today and one of my callus(es?) catches and rips a dime size chunk of skin off my hand:


I wasn't sure what gym protocol was for skin disposal, so I put it in my pocket. It hurt a little so I'll try this removal method from Jim over at Beast Skills before next time.
