Oh, and before any of the rest of them get a chance to tell tall tales I just thought I'd let you all know what really happened when we went ice skating new years night (the night of the first). We went to the out door skate rink downtown and we were doing pretty well, circles and all that and they closed for the night so we got all our stuff and were walking back to the car when this band of 40 bikers came out of nowhere and charged Rhodric. I guess they thought he stole one of their jackets or something but it was pretty scary. Everyone took off running except Rhoddy who seemed to be frozen in terror so I had no choice but to stick around and defend him. I was kicking and throwing punches like there was no tomorrow (if i'd stopped at any point I doubt there would have been for either of us) and finally succeeded in beating them all back and none too soon 'cause i was getting pretty tired.
And -that's- how I sprained the first two fingers on my left hand and at least the big toe on my right foot. Did you know that a little ice can really make a difference? My toe had barely hurt (compared to my fingers) so my fingers got iced and my foot didn't and while my hand is sore it didn't bruise or anything. My foot on the other hand swelled up and turned at least 3 different shades of purple. Fuscia, plum, and a nice smokey purple. Rhodric is lucky I was there to save him.
> ---Personally, I'd blame the injuries more on the yellow font user's innate clumsiness than any phantom bikers. Besides..rhodric was wearing an army sweater, not a leather jacket at the rink. :p hush you. anyone can fall while ice skating. It took true talent for me to trip while hoping from the bench to the skate return window.
