Cast off! (or Déjà Vu all over again)
I’d like you to take a close look at the following two pictures and tell me what you identify as the common feature.
If your answer includes the cast on Brian’s left arm, you would be correct.
Now, I’d like you to consider that these pictures were taken about 11 weeks apart.
“What?!” you undoubtedly exclaim. “Why is Brian in a cast for such a long time?”
Answers to this question do not include:
• It’s because the doctor forgot about him.
• The attraction Carolyn has for men in casts is second only to those who wear eye patches.
• Brian enjoys not being able to do the dishes.
No, alas. The answer is much more embarrassing. You see, the photos depict two different casts treating two separate injuries. Here are the details:
About one week (actually, closer to six days and twenty-three hours) after Brian got his first cast off, he decided to jog to work. On the way, he stepped in a hole, twisted his ankle, fell and reinjured the same wrist in the same spot.
I guess you might say that Brian gets another break from doing the dishes.
(pardon the pun, but I couldn’t resist)

Since you have so many other hobbies, why do you keep this one? Are you going for some kind of international sympathy angle?
Did you have to type this entry awkwardly with one hand?
Love you guys.
I'm thinking you should write a sitcom based on your life right now. This kind of stuff is comedy gold.
I'd be happy to write a sitcom on my life, but how about we do an animated series instead?
An animated sitcom? I don't think anyone would go for that. What if we made everyone's skin yellow for no reason? That sounds more likely to succeed.
