Anyway... we had sooo much fun in Florida and we can't wait to go back - we're really thinking about moving there. While we were there, the BF and I spent a lot of time fishing. We caught a whole lot of fish, obviously we released them right away. We fished all day for the first 3 days until we were rudely interrupted by a nasty catfish. By nasty catfish, I mean a SPIKY catfish!
Catfish apparently have really sharp fins on their sides and back. And... well... the BF got stuck by one of them!
Of course I freaked out because... well... it went right through the top of his knuckle! His finger swelled up - basically it was double the normal size.
Finally, the BF's finger is now back to normal size and feeling better. We're just thankful that it wasn't a serious injury. It could've been worse... but we're so happy it wasn't.
Wow, I'm glad the injury wasn't worse!! I love your little sketch as always! It sounds like you had a good time on your vacation despite this frightening incident. Thank you by the way, for your amazingly sweet comment on my birthday weekend post... made me smile!
