I'd forgotten how annoying crutches are.

It's the same damned knee as two years ago, too, so I'm liable to be hopping around for a while. Then more physio - I can't wait. I've spent the last fifteen minutes trying to convince Jean that she thinks a limp is sexy. She keeps laughing at me.

I suppose that once I get the hang of the crutches again, I'll be in overcompensation mode because of all the things I can't do for a few weeks. These are the times I invent whole new categories of paperwork - and get very creative with the Danger Room scenarios. Everyone on the team may hate me before September comes.

I can now say that I am truly glad that I'm not trainee status yet. Mwha! You can't torment me with Danger Room sessions yet.

I think you need flash cards though. With things like 'Knee injuries are bad, mmkay?' on them so you can show them to the bad guys. I figure while they look at you like you're crazy someone else can hit them over the head.

Well, technically it wasn't a bad guy this time - not directly, at least. I just jumped and landed wrong. Okay, the landing wrong was probably inevitable given how high I was when I jumped, but still. I do envy the physically enhanced sometimes.

We prefer the term 'much better then you' to physically enhanced these days.

Funny, I find myself preferring the term 'first in line for those new DR scenarios I was talking about'.

We could practice three-legged squad drills!

Besides, I trained with Col. Eugene Judd for years. Unlike you, he has absolutely no respect for human life. As terrible as, what, the 'fight your opponents who today are mysteriously made out of jam' scenario might be, I'm pretty sure they won't get me arrested in a Winnipeg stripbar at 4 in the morning. That automatically makes them less frightening then Judd.

Damn, I miss Judd

You know what the dwarf's up to these days?

I remember the stripbar story. Weren't you also wearing a thong on your head and belting out the words to "My Heart Will Go On" at the same time?

Good times, man, Good times.
