Well my list is pretty short.
Stitches in my face when I was like 5 and go pushed into a fence while playing tag
Stiches in my head at the age of 8 when I climbed a tree only to have the tree snap while I was hanging on to the top. Cracked my noggin on a rock on the fall.
Broken collarbone at 15 from a very dumb skateboard incident. At least I only missed three weeks of hockey.
Broken nose after taking a puck in the face at a rec league hockey game. We only had 7 guys that night, so I came back looking like Killer Carlson with bloody hockey tape on my nose.
This summer I suffered a couple of stupid minor injuries that are still nagging me. In June I was trying to show my wife how to golf at a driving range. It's a grass range, but they have a rope to set where you should be hitting from. I wasn't paying attention and got too close to the rope and caught the head of my 3 wood just as I hit the ball and jammed my wrist. I've been able to play golf still, but it's not 100% and still bothers me. Than in August I was running my dogs one night in the dark. I stepped on a rock on the sidewalk and rolled my ankle good. I had to crawl home with the two dogs, and still can't run on that ankle. Moral of the story, as you get old your body gets brittle. So enjoy the reckless life while you're young!
