Hey Crew,
Man this is so awful, stupid, and I have no one to blame but myself. AUUUUGH!
I finished band practice with "Loose Change" this evening, had to rush home thru the 60-75 MPH winds and rain that the current thunderstorm has blessed us with, got home, and had 5 minutes to unwind, change into my sparring apparel, and my student/sparring partner shows up. I pounded a brewski in the meantime. (one measly beer)
We continued on our upper-lower body passive blocking technique we've been working on for a few weeks, and he throws a (VERY well executed) back roundhouse kick (SUPPOSED to be LIGHT contact) and I brought up my right forearm to do a grab/control/twist block, and BANG!-- I caught my little pinkie on his pantsleg during the sweep of his delivery.
SNAP! I heard it, so did he, and the real pain didn't set in until a minute or 2 had gone by.
Man, it's fat, half the colors of the rainbow, and is pounding in severe pain. Did I mention PAIN? AUUUUGH!
Damn, I'm wondering if taping it up, just keep soaking in ice, or calling off the next few gigs might be what to do. I'll know in a day or 2, I guess.
Be careful folks,
C. P.
