So it seems some of you are tired of reading me complain about my ear. I'm so sorry. The last thing I want to do is make you sick of reading my blog. I mean, I'm just a fair-to-middling blogger with a double ear infection who tries his best regardless of all the pain. So today I will not talk about my ear at all.

Instead I will talk about my toes.

Last night while playing basketball with one healthy ear I bruised both my big toes again. Right now a pool of blood is welling up behind each toenail. Feels like they're gonna burst. I'm weighing whether or not to try and release the fluid. In the past I've heated the end of a paperclip and melted a tiny hole through my toenail to let the blood and stuff seep out. But it's a tricky procedure, especially given how rough and thick my nails are. Plus if I melt the hole too deep the heated paperclip tip goes all the way through to the flesh under my nail and that hurts a lot. Like a way a lot. Like double ear infection a lot.

So I'm going to wait it out for now. I've taking more ibuprofen than I ever have before. Morley Safer says I should cut my toes off with a ball point pen, but I refuse to believe his lies. Except, of course, when he tells me I'm a pretty boy, which he hasn't done yet but I know he will soon. I can feel it. Anyway, I'm talking about my ear infection again so I should stop. Let's me do some blogging.

How about that Shark Week, huh!

Alrighty, that should do it. Here are my toes.
