11 or 12 I think... pretty crazy story what happened afterwords too :p

I left my cell phone at work but I had my blackberry so the only person I knew to call in that kind of state of shock was one of my friends.. I told him what happened but he was in NYC so he called K1052 for me (he's my neighbor) and he came over and took me to the ER.

I managed to get up off the street and get into my apt building on autopilot and he found me slumped over in front of my door completely unraveled and soaked in blood lol. Awesome end to a friday night :roll:

It was quasi random babbling brought on by shock. At first I thought you had gotten mugged due to the state of your clothes and all.

I broke my middle finger, and I didn't know it was broken, so it grew back crooked, and whenever people ask me if I broke anything, I show them my crooked finger. :D

In May, I broke my wrist, but luckily figured out I broke that, and got that mended. It'd suck to have a crooked wrist when typing, lol.

Holy crap. I must have missed the blood-stained sidewalk the next day. :(

glad to hear you survived though. I'll buy you a beer on Wednesday, assuming you're not gonna wuss out and miss quiz night?

Hope your finger is ok, unlike mine....

My left-ring finger broke and I had cast for 3 months. Then stupid doctor thought that it fully healed when it didn't and start putting me through physiotherapy. Month later, he realized his mistake and basically told me I can try the surgery which might help or make it worse. So I just left it alone it and since then I can't bend my ring finger. :(
