I broke my toe.
by pallyboy at 7/6/2008 1:46:09 PM


I agreed to do a "family" thing last night. I don't know why,...it always ends the same way. But because I love my children I allowed their mother to come along. Sometimes I think I'm the stupidest man on the planet,..always getting involved with women who have no desire to treat anyone with the respect they would like to be afforded themselves. Of course we got in a fight and I left and walked home,...or tried to. Another stupid move trying to walk 30 miles up a mountain. I'd gone about 15 miles when I realized my big toe had broken from the stress of walking. About another 5 miles later, 4:00am in the morning is when the cops pulled over. I was in a bad place, pitch black, and no moon and I knew I was being followed by something in the brush, Coyote or Mountain lion. I had to promise the cops I wasn't going to beat the kids mom when I saw her so they would give me a ride the rest of the 12 miles home. I wouldn't do that anyway, I have never hit a woman. I'll leave that for the next guy,...and I know it will happen. I've seen it before. Just because I'm about the easiest most gentle person you could ever meet doesn't mean the next guy will put up with the same bullshit. You know, I used to run 10 miles every other day and felt better after than when I started. Today I can barely walk with my feet so blistered I can't even rest them on the floor and my toe so swollen you can see where it broke. My world is going to change,....it has to. I just can't keep fighting like this.

BUT, you just HAVE to start taking care of YOU for a change, OK?YOU know I care...SO, STOP PUTTING UP WITH THIS CRAP!!!People treat you the way you ALLOW them to treat you, OK?

Thanks Hon, but I stopped putting myself first just before I had children and only expanded that after they were born. I don't believe you have the right to think of yourself when you have children to take care of. If I did that I wouldn't be the person I am.

Take care of that toe and hope it feels better fast. Next time, just go with the kids. Hugs!

pally, you can be the great dad that you are even if you put yourself first.. silly boy.. self respect won't take away from the kids.. you are a great person and there is nothing wrong for looking out for yourself.

OMG Pally, wish I lived closer, I would have helped you out, (works in healthcare). Did you have the toe checked, not much could be done, but at least put something to cushion it when you walk. Don't be down, you have friends here that adore you. Things will get better, I promise, keep your chin up, and try to avoid letting the woman upset you again, not healthy for you or your kids. Sorry you had such a shitty time. (Hugs) Take care.

Hey Roy, did you forget that I was only in Escondido? Why didn't you call me? You should have gone to the CD release party like we planned and you wouldn't have gotten into that situation with the ex. Hope your toe is better. I'll talk with you later. Love, Kat
