The long story...

Whether you've seen the picture or not... the damaged toe in the picture below was caused by a momentary distraction.

So, I have a sliding door.
It turns out that with a bit of ingenuity this door will support 2 window fans.
One on the bottom, one on the top.
The one on the top is held in place by a bar that holds the sliding door tight against the fan.

On August 28th I was putting the fans in place as I have done dozens of times before.
Then...
A MOMENTARY DISTRACTION!!!

And smash.
The fan fell 4 feet on to... my... foot.
Specifically the second toe on my right foot.

After a silent scream and nearly passing out twice I got the blood to stop dripping and everything was wrapped up in tissues and socks.

Now I suffer as I recover.
But today went well, and the toe hurts less every day.

But still...
Seriously...
