Significant Injuries (Clearly Nothing Fatal)
I imagine this to be like Rainman's journal of pain and suffering, or whatever it was he called it. We're not counting psychic injuries here. I'm doing my best estimate on long ago dates. Scale of injury: 1 is bruising, 10 is broken stuff, numbers inbetween represent levels of pain and lingering injury.

Fell on my butt on the ice while snowboarding with snazzygina at northstar. I am quite sure my tailbone was broken. Couldn't walk right or bend at the waist without agony for weeks.

Playing on rope swing at my next door neighbor's house, I swing out over the ravine and the rope snaps, sending me about fifteen feet down onto some rocks. Big scraps on the face, badly sprained (probably broken) ankle.

Jumping on the Living Room Couch, while my parents' were measuring for a new coffee table, I mangled myself by hitting my chin on my knee and bit clean through the area just below my bottom lip. Stiches. Still have teeth marks there.
