Sorry about your boo-boo. I have both broken my big toe tripping down the stairs and had the same big toe crushed by my dining room chair but not at the same time of course. Yeah I lost my toenail with that second klutzy incident. Did you get that broken bone nauseous feeling after it happened? I did when I broke my toe. Also, having my toe crushed hurt MUCH worse than having it broke. And, almost one year after the toe crushing, my toenail still hasn't grown out right. Hope yours isn't all that bad and feel better soon!
PS Get a doctors note. Surely they wouldn't deny you "medically needed footwear".

Oh man Norm... a stubbed toe is the pits.. I've broken my 2 toes next to the little one before it happend at work, at the time I was working at a local DQ and I grabbed 2 dilly bar sticks (aka tounge depressers) taped them up got to my doc and they said ... "well thats what we were going to do anyway" I would deffinately let a doc look at that... don't mess with infections and your feet that bad ju ju. Hope you're day goes better.

Hi, I'm de-lurking! *gasp*
It has been my experience that toes just bleed a lot. I swear that my toes have their own separate blood supply. If they didn't, I would have bled to death by now! Anyway, I hope your toe heals quickly~
BTW, you remind me of my mother. And that's definitely not a bad thing since I consider her as a good friend.

Madwag - yeah!!!! But you gotta know "ouchie" was NOT the word(s) I said when I did this....
BluJewel - I got permission to wear "shoes of comfort" for my toe until the 5th of september. So there goes my lawsuit....
Asterismos - OOOOOOO!!!! Crushing your toe??!!! Dear God. My whole body is puckering up from the imaginary pain you must have felt! YOW! (oh and my work's medical dept never believes the "real" doctor notes from town. buncha quacks)
Linda - Yeah!! It really is!!!!
HotDudi - I'm always boinking my toes too!!! This is the first time I've done one THIS bad....
Dari - it DID hurt!!! LOTS AND LOTS! Now why would you wish a jacked up toe on your neighbor? What'd she do to you??
A taste that's bitter - and you should see the "other side" of my toe where all the streaky bruises are striping my toe like a zebra!!
Kim - Why thank ya !! Getting my nails done is my one little luxury that I cannot do without!!
Spicy - Dilly bars!!!!!! I love dilly bars!!! and yes "mom", I've got an appointment with a podiatrist on the 23rd of September...
FM - My mom was standing next to me when I did my toe and commented on my language. Cause I did like you did! I told her I learned all my good words from her. LOL!
Barmy - but I'm on antibiotics from last weeks chest cold!!! I can't go on a bender!! Amputations just aren't worth it if you can't drink yourself silly....
Shangie - yup. It's got a chunk missing AND a little flap of skin that likes to pop up and wave in the breeze. Along with my toenail. My toenail likes to stand at attention and make me cry.
Amanda - I believe you!! This toe bled all day long. Quite the juicy little appendage. Thanks for the compliment btw!!! Mom's are COOL!
OUCHIE!!!!
