so since the boards seem to be rather dead lately... and i doubt there's going to be any love left by the ladies in here anytime soon, i think i'm going to use my 411 for something random...
every few days, i'll leave a new topic... i'm sure it will get derailed, but hopefully people will answer and the responses will be more than the "wow... so yummy" or "c'mon girls, show us your tits" or "you haven't posted here in two months, but i know that if i say 'bump' that HAS to make you come back and drop your clothes for me" that seem to be running rampant around here lately...
so here's the first topic... actually, it's kind of two
first, what was the best day of your life? i'm guessing the day someone got married or became a parent has to rate high up there... but other than that... can you look back at a particular day and call it the best one of your life for some reason?
second, and conversely... what's the most pain you've ever felt in your life (excluding childbirth for the ladies, b/c, yeah, i know that has to hurt like no other)... physical pain... anyone ever had to endure anything really agonizing?
...so now we sit back and see how this little experiment works, or whether it fades away and i go back to just looking at boobs
Best Day - Well for me it was obviously my wedding day, and I don't say that because it is what people expect married people to say or because it's cliche. The day was truly amazing. We had rain for weeks in Sydney leading up to our big day and we were worried rain would dampen our celebrations but like some sort of sign of life to come I awoke to nothing but blue skies and sunshine. The day itself went off without a hitch and most of all bondigirl and I had fun at our wedding, and I dont think many people do due to stress levels etc.
Other than that the day the Socceroos qualified for the 2006 World Cup was amazing. not just because I am a sports nut but the level of patriotism at the ground that day was unparalled. We had old greek guys hugging young aussie kids and the spirit and sincerity in which my national anthem was sung is something I will never, ever forget.
Most physical pain is a line ball between when I fractured my elbow a few years back (which coincidentally was the reason I found RMM, 6 weeks at home bored and online everyday) and the day i cracked a rib playing football. It hurt to breathe...
I think so too, either here or some other message board we may have posted at.
But what the hey, I'll indulge ol jork.
Best day of my life- Ya know, I don't know for sure. Because my wedding or graduating from university and other "important" days a person has in their life aren't really the best cuz the whole journey leading up to those events and a lot of times since rate higher in my books. Little things that you wouldn't expect to mean a lot end up being way better for some reason. But if I had to pick one, and it is cliche, it would be the day my son was born. Even though he's gotten older and we can do stuff together and obviously have a stronger bond, the day he was born healthy and all after waiting in anticipation for so long was truly great, and a great relief.
Most pain- I know I've recounted this tale somewhere but here goes again. I hurt my right ankle about 9 years ago. I was doing seated calf raises, had about 300 lbs give or take loaded up. I was squeezing out a few last reps and when I was at the top of my last rep my right ankle rolled to the outside, my left foot slipped out and the whole thing collapsed on my left ankle which was now pinned sideways under the weight. My partner lifted the weight off and I pulled out my foot which was jammed right sideways and I couldn't move it as it was out of joint. I could see the sole of my shoe when I looked down! But it didn't hurt. So I tried moving my foot around to pop it back in, but it was stuck and my foot wouldn't budge. Finally it did pop back into joint and that's when the fun started, including intense pain and swelling. If you've ever seen Eddie Murphy Raw when he's talking to his father on the phone and he tells how he got punched in the mouth and he imitates how his lip swelled up, well that's exactly how my ankle felt. I could actually feel the fluid swelling into my ankle. It was crazy.
So I went to the sports doc at the university but he was away so I got treated by another doctor who really didn't do anything for me expcept give me crutches (Canadian medicare is free but no one said it was good).
I had heavy bruising all over my foot and halfway up my calf. Looking back, I might have needed surgery because now, to this day, my ankle still hasn't recovered fully. Sure I can do pretty much all I did before, but I roll my ankle far more frequnetly than I should due to the looseness of the ankle, especially with lateral movement.

Gnappy - Im in now position right now to have kids of my own but I look forward to the day I do have my own kids as everyone I know or speak to says the joy they bring into your life is unrivalled by everything else.
Also, I remember dislocating my pinky was painful. Well I know it doesn't sounds much but I was 12 or 13 at the time playing football and I caught a high ball awkardly and my pinky dislocated. It didn't hurt too much but I came to the sideline and showed my trainer. He told me to look out at the play on the field and before I knew it he snapped it back into place. It only lasted a few seconds but it was the most stinging pain I have felt!
