Did I mentioned that I broke my tail bone in August? Yep, I did. I jumped off of a 45 foot cliff into a lake and landed wrong. I didn't cry though -I simply swam 300 yards back to the boat, taking lots of breaks due to pain, and found that I was physically incapable of holding myself up enough to climb into the boat.
I haven't been able to run since I did it. It was pretty scary the first night. I couldn't walk and my friends and I were staying on a house boat. The guys literally had to carry me to the bathroom (if that's not the sign of a true friend, I don't know what is). Being so helpless and seeing how concerned and helpful my friends were made me really glad I was friends with the not-so popular people. Earlier in the day we had seen some wild and crazy college kids near us on the lake, but I wouldn't trade my friends for the world.
