Kargo of the future ?

There has got to be something racist about this lol. Can they seriously make any money on selling chia Obama. Hell selling chia crap for that matter ?

Stitches get pulled in 10 days. I can slowly start to move the elbow joint using my good hand to guide it. Right now there is only about 2-3 inches I can move my arm so everything is rather stiff. I know I'll get it to extend fully well before I'm ever able to lift my palm to my shoulder. It really hurts alot to move it much of anywhere so it will be slow going. I'm pretty sure things will heal now though just fine. Frozen corn makes a great ice pack btw :p

I have an owie :p Glad we got this over with should heal decently fast now.

( Fun Pictures behind the cut  )

Ya know I just saw a photo of a friend back well before we had ever met and it made me smile. I't also makes me curious to see more friends. Most the folks on here I probably havent known for greater then 6 years. So post a picture of yourself say pre 2002 ? Come on share a photo :D Tilt I've seen plenty of your mullett but I wanna see another ;P

Your grandpas car really wasn't built as awesomely tough as you thought.

Stayed decently productive today actually selling off a few things I dont put to good use anymore and interest in a few other things. In the meanwhile lacy  has listed up some random stuff from including a few animation cells, dvd's, games, etc so go take that stuff off her hands lacy.livejournal.com/51826.html . Thanks for the help sweetie and thank you so much everyone who has or does contribute. Good friends really do make going through tougher times alot better then they could be :) Thanks again to all those who checked up on me today it really does cheer me up hearing from you guys !  Time for more pain killers and some sleep !

Usually id prefer to try and stay as chipper as possible in such times but I'm just feeling shitty :/ I do have basic insurance and was called by the local place that I have an appt. at just so they could tell me how much it sucks. Since they arent preferred by my IP (no one around here is) its something like a scale of 30 then 40 then yadda yadda isnt covered in full till i reach the $9000 cap.  Fuck me :/ Been scoping out things I can sell off such as my glider, games, some rc stuff i still have left. Lacy said she will sell her puppy boomer to help things along but it's still just putting a dent in things :( I really thought i was smarter trying to keep myself insured out of pocket and was keeping my priorities decently strait but it just never seems to be enough.  I just feel so stupid all around atm. 
The other thing that has me down is how uncertain I am about whether or not this is healing properly. No one actually touched my arm after the xrays besides to put it in this sling. I keep fearing its not set right and will have to be broken and set again or wonder how they seemed so possitive it needed surgery to being so vague. Im afraid that maybe getting a 2nd opinion may just be wasting away money so im unsure what to do about that. I just wish i was told a little bit more about the situation is all and wish I where a bit better prepared for this financially.  I just want things to get better as quickly as possible so I can kick some ass working on suits. I feel so worthless when I am pretty much by all means worthless for the next 5-6 weeks when i comes to work. I just cant stop worrying about stuff :/
On a possitive note I do wanna thank people for their well wishes. And thank lacy  and arito  for their extra help around the house and esp with work. Ive been a little less then motivational the last few days and arito  has been gracious enough to fill in helping keep lacy motivated and even taken on some of my work to try to keep the EF rush from getting to far off track though a few delays will be inevitable from this. Again Im sorry for any inconveniences, These are both testing times for us and our customers so patience will be greatly appreciated.  Now to ebay my life :/

Well I can tell you for certain today that I am not ambidexterous at all :( Yesterday afternoon I decided to take a little extended lunch out at the airport and do a bit of flying. Had a probably my longest soaring flight so far (about an hour) and also made my biggest learning mistake so far. Flared harder a little bit to early and popped up about and lets just say I didnt come down near as perfect as I usually do. Ended up with the glider nosed over laying in the grass telling myself Im an idiot while laying still knowing something was broken (ive broken both ankles so its not a foreign feeling anymore lol), after about a minute I tried moving things and immediatly felt the humorous bone crunching and could see my arm laying in what would look like a hyper extended position with the skin and muscle on my arm poking out a bit .  I straitened it out with my good hand took off my helmet and waited for some help to arrive.  Soon it did and the guys asked if i wanted a ambulance but i knew they wouldnt do anything different then we would besides destroying my harness cutting me out of it so we took our time trying to get me out of it without further aggrivating the injury set the glider up off the runway and headed for the hospital .  As we got the xrays i was told surgery was needed etc etc but in the end they decided to see how its healing in about a week in the sling. 

All i can say is it realllly sucks losing the use of your prefered arm. i though at first it wouldn't be to bad but now it just feels weird because sometimes ill try to move my hand out and it feel like i am but its just the upper part of the humorous moving and nothing else.  Also painful if I bend forward at all since my arm swings out freely unless i hold it tighly to my body :/ The worst part about this is how I feel for customers. I really really hate the thought of delays esp if the suit is for a convention. I know as a con gets closer the excitement increases to going to the con and possibly suiting for the first time and now its inevitable that there will be some delays. While Lacy will be working hard we both work on things we excel at and this will most deff hinder some work while im down and out for the next 4-6 weeks. Ill be doing my best to heal as quickly as possible but i can only help bone growth along so much.  I'm so sorry i really honestly am :/



I think I may get a 2nd opinion on whether it should heal on its own or if surgery is needed. I just get sick at the thought of the bills that will come along with this. I know i will make it work as i always have but its just so unexpected. Payment plans are a bitch and it seems like they do so little and charge so much. Im just guessing 5-$8000. Fuck they just sent Adam a $1100 bill for 4 stitches wtf !  Shoot me :/ 

So in other news anyone want to purchase a hang glider ;) ? 

My apologies for any poor punctuation or if i was to vague at all but left handed typing sucks !  

I'll miss getting a chance to suit and play at megaplex this week which is right own the road and helping to celebrate 2 friends bdays but I guess it's all well and good since i'll be probably dissapointing a few folks with some delays.  

Take care you guys.
