It comes and goes.....

Want to hear something gross? Too bad, you're going to have to anyway. Keep reading. Really, just do it. 'Cmon!

Anyway, since Sunday, I'd been feeling like a blister had been forming on my little toe on my left foot. I ignored it, because - really - who wants to take the energy and bend over to look at your toe? Not me.

However, on Tuesday, I decided I better look at it, just in case it wasn't a blister and it was some kind of tumor and I was going to die. Might as well just take a peek to avoid anything disastrous, right? Right.

So, I find that not only is it a blister on my toe, the blister is as big as my little toe. And even though it's not that big, because a little toe is little, since it was the whole size of my toe, I think that qualifies as being big. And then I did what anyone would do, I got a sterile needle and tried to drain it. Problem solved, right?

Wrong.

Yesterday, in the middle of the day, my toe starts to throb. And I couldn't even walk on it by the end of the day. And as I was limping around my house, my mom laughs at me because of my "little tiny blister". So, I un-sock and show her my toe, which she then proclaims, "Ewww. That's not a blister....it's a deformity." Yeah. Thanks, mom!

I couldn't figure out what to do. Draining it hadn't worked. Ignoring it hadn't worked. Maybe cutting off my toe would be less painful? I seriously considered it. But then I decided against it. That would cost too much. So, I did what anyone in my situation would do - I propped up my feet and watched T.V.

During a commercial, I decided to examine my toe once again, just to look at my "deformity" as some may call it. I knew there was fluid in there, so I just thought that if I could drain it again, it might work the second time around. It just had to. So, while I was trying to gather the fluid in one general area so I could stick the needle in, the darn thing exploded. Seriously.

There was so much fluid in it, it made a pool on the floor, and I had some dripping off of my hand. It was kind of cool, in a weird sort of way. I imagine it sounded 1/10th of what someone's water breaking would sound like. Don't ask me why, I'm just weird.

But, today, my toe feels fine - as if nothing had ever happened. And it looks fine, too. Like nothing was ever there. Strange, yet gross and amazing all at the same time!
