The Perils of Engagement


Okay, so this is not really a consequence of becoming engaged. This was a direct result of alcohol and karaoke and the urine-slick tile floor in the men's bathroom at Chopsticks on 28th and Burnside. Who is that man holding Kyle's hand? Nobody knows but it was established that he is not an EMT or a trained nurse or even a good friend of Kyle's. Notice the unnatural angle of Kyle's right foot. The positioning you see there is due to the fact that his bones are fractured in three places and his foot is not actually skeletally attached to his leg anymore. Emily remained calm and collected while encouraging photos and cracking jokes, and an ambulance soon arrived to cart Kyle off to the hospital on a backboard. This is why Emily has requested that Kyle's bachelor party take place at least two months before the wedding. Considering this was just the engagement party, I think that's a pretty good idea.

Yeah - I just figured Kyle was drunk laying down in the bathroom. It wasn't until I was halfway out of the building that I realized is dangling ankle. I almost dropped him again as soon as I saw that too... but I still feel confident that getting him off of the piss-covered bathroom floor was the right thing to do - broken ankle or not.

No word since yesterday. He had surgery and hopefully is on the road to recovery.

Damn, I remember holding this guy's hand and thinking "who the hell are you?" Glad someone got the picture.

And I am on a slow but steady road to 100% recovery so everyone hang in there, I will be out in the wild in 2 months time.
