I love movies. The stunts are great to watch, and suddenly it seems possible for a human to fall three stories and get up without any ill effects. Will and I have been watching the Star Wars movies this past weekend. He loves them. Emily said they might be too violent, and he answered "I like violent." Aren't we great parents?Anyway, perhaps those movies were running through my head when I was on the roof of the porch on Sunday, cleaning out the gutters on top of the house. Emily was working on recovering a flowerbed. Will was out front with her. To get down, I would need her to hold the ladder, but I had jumped down a few years before. So I tossed down my tools and took a leap off the roof.
And landed really wrong. There was an internal sproing in my left leg. It went a little numb. And I knew I had done something really stupid.
So I'm limping around the house now. I can put weight on the leg, but my knee and ankle are really sore. Today has been better, but Emily doesn't miss an opportunity to call me an idiot. I guess I can't jump off the roof anymore. I'm not Batman.
Well, perhaps this Batman.....

hey jay,
is the van or the sedan the batmobile. and who would be your robin?? But the real question is, do you have a utility belt??
Take Votes for Robin! :) The loser will become Robin.
I vote that Joe Buckley be Robin, not the kickass Chris O'Donnell Robin, but the Teen Titans Robin.
Paul, I don't know that Robin, do you have a link?!
I can lend Jay my utility belt if he doesn't have one.
Foxbat, Jay has forbidden me from responding to your comment. It is taking all of my self control to restrain myself right now!
Hahahahaha.
I'm pretty sure you don't know what I'm talking about b/c I didn't get it until this year, but you can make fun of me anyway. All I have is this:

Okay, thinking of Jay trying to wear a belt of mine is pretty darn funny. I think Drew's right; it would be more of a headband thing.
I didn't post it as a link, just copied and pasted the text from the address bar, but if you reverse that it works fine.
*should work
10 bucks says that Jay yelled, "Hey watch this!" before he jumped.
I think that's hilarious! Last time I hurt both my knee and ankle was when I fainted. In the doctor's office- trying to be a source of support for my doctor and her procedure. And I hurt it badly! I like batman!
