Interesting Weekend

This last Friday morning, Danny got up 5:30 am, like normal, to go play basketball with his coworkers.  At 7, he called to tell me he'd twisted his ankle.  He said it wasn't bad, just a little swollen and he'd be coming home from work at the normal time.  So imagine my surprise when he limps into the house and asks to ice his VERY swollen ankle.  We propped it up and and iced it off and on all night.  I'm not sure Danny would have even bothered icing it, except that he had a golf tournament on Saturday.  Yes, I know what you are thinking, and I was thinking the same thing.  Golfing 18 holes on a swollen, twisted ankle?  Who would do that?  I wasn't going to argue especially since I figured he wouldn't last long.  Saturday morning, Danny ace-wrapped his ankle tightly and was off.  I picked him up from the course at about 2 and he unwrapped his ankle on the way home and this was what it looked like:

Danny would like me to mention that he did get 2nd place with his team at the golf tournament, so appparently any damage done to the ankle was totally worth it. He'd also like me to point out that if he plays that well with a bum ankle, imagine how he plays with 2 good ankles...

Men are so weird. I would sprain my ankle just to get OUT of a golf tournament.
