Aura Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 Sitting in the emergency room. Bug flew into my eye in the middle of a 5K, pretty sure it scratched some shit up. Be careful everyone, apparently running is dangerous. Quote
Aura Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 Mike G - I need to borrow the eye patch big bro. Quote
jvlgato Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 That sucks. I can get you your own eye patch, if you want. Quote
boomana Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 Hope your eye heals quickly, Bryan. That sounds nasty. As for me, we're having marathon groups due to the acting out behavior of the patients at work. Was basically in group from 7AM - 8PM today. I'm wiped out, but I gotta say I had some big fun messing with people, all for the powers of good, of course. 1 Quote
Absorbine_Sr Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 Mike G - I need to borrow the eye patch big bro. It's yours lil bro. Take care man. Don't want you doing a Sammy Davis Jr. imitation (fuck am I old). Quote
blessingx Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 I think an actor in Cannonball Run or some such thing. Quote
morphsci Posted May 3, 2012 Author Report Posted May 3, 2012 Take care Bryan. Looks like Sammy did not do too bad. Quote
shellylh Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 Sorry Bryan. I am finding that Iowa City isn't so bad. At least I can get some Founders and Bells. Kinda reminds me of Bloomington, IN. It's really quiet here though. Quote
mikeymad Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 dang bryan - sounds like you could use a sour beer... Quote
n_maher Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 ^ this. Make sure you take care of the eye. Me: at a conference for the day. Quote
swt61 Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 (edited) Damn, does no one have any sympathy for that poor bug? Just imagine flying along, when all of a sudden some giant eyeball knocks you on your ass. Feel better Bryan and bug! Edited May 3, 2012 by swt61 Quote
Aura Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 (edited) Lol, even when something so ridiculous happens my HC gang is still there for support. Thanks everyone! I did indeed have a small scratch on the bottom-let quadrant of my eye, so they prescribed an ointment for the next three days. And Mikey - already have plans to crack some beer during lunch today to help the recovery. Edited May 3, 2012 by Aura Quote
raffy Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 Ouch Bryan! Hope your eye feels better soon bro. Quote
jvlgato Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 Damn, does no one have any sympathy for that poor bug? Just imagine flying along, when all of a sudden some giant eyeball knocks you on your ass. Feel better Bryan and bug! Hiliarious. Leave it to Steve to see the different point of view. Although ... do bugs really have asses? Will have to ask morphsci about that ... Quote
Absorbine_Sr Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 Of course they have asses. What's the last thing to go through a bug's mind when it hits your windshield? His ass of course. I'm here all week folks, try the veal. And don't forget to tip your waitress. Quote
Torpedo Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 Glad you're OK Bryan, take care of that eye. Did you kill the bug? Damn things. Quote
jvlgato Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 (edited) Don't quit your day job, Mike! Here's hoping that Bryan doesn't have a bug's ass stuck in his eye ball! Edited May 3, 2012 by jvlgato Quote

morphsci Posted May 3, 2012 Author Report Posted May 3, 2012 Mike is correct bugs have a flow through digestive system so they definitely have an anal opening. Me: Decided to go for a bike ride to try out the new Garmin 500. Cruising along at about ten miles in thinking that everything was going well. Pop! Woooosssshhhhh... Okay, it's the rear tube but not a really big deal. Pull out the underseat bag and open it up. Chain tool, tire levers, tube ... No tube. OK. Well I'll use my phone to call for a ride. Pull out the phone and it is in a perpetual booting loop. Pull the battery, wait one minute, no good. Pull the battery, start walking to the last road I crossed. 10 minutes later I pop the battery back in and the phone finally boots up. Not an auspicious return to cycling. Quote
Dreadhead Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 Sorry dude. Hope it goes better next time. Quote
jvlgato Posted May 3, 2012 Report Posted May 3, 2012 Disappointing, hoping for some complex anatomical lesson on thorax vs. hips, pelvis, evolution of, ontogeny, phylogeny, etc ... But 'bugs have an ass' is good, too. Sorry about your bad bike ride. It'll get better! Quote
