I Need a Break... OUCH! Not That Kind!

I've been working Trojan-like over the past week for my placement at Donvale, and I'm feeling pooped to the dickens. I've got quite a few lesson plans to do, and considering I'm teaching The Hobbit to my Year 10's, I can't help but plan awesomely fun, but very very detailed, lesson plans so they get the most out of it (I'm bringing in excerpts from the LotR trilogy to show how people have represeted Gollum, and a bit of his background - coolest character ever). Combine this stuff with the fact that I'm giving a message and doing a drama for '5 - 2 - 9' (youth program at church) and a vox pop segment for the night service at church on Sunday, and you have a very busy, tired Danny. I'm feeling good about it though, I think I can pull it off, and it'll be over soon. My wife has been the best chick in the world too, supporting me by making dinner, cleaning dishes and making me lunch; I have to be the luckiest guy in the world.

Kep reading, it gets more interesting.

On top of all this stuff, I discovered recently from my doctor that I broke my rib a little while back. This is the story: I was wrestling with Chrystal one day (about 3 months ago) and I twisted myself in a weird way and heard an audible 'SNAP' from my chest. Pretty intense pain followed. For the next months after that, I had the worst sleep (lying down was painful, getting up even more so), hated changing from 3rd to 2nd in the manual car (the angle made things hurt), but couldn't be bothered to go to the doctor to get it checked out. My theory was "Ah well, what's the doctor gonna do? You can't exactly plaster it up".
Anyway, it got better after about a month. Then I went to a Grand Final thingy at Dan Hoyne, Matt Baker and Glen Jessop's place, and we all had a kick of the footy at a nearby park. Bad move. I ended up on the second-bottom of a stacks on (very fun, mind you), and came back up again with a very painful side.
I got quite sick of it after that, so I did go to see the doctor, and they gave me my previously predicted response of "Can't do much. Sorry.", but they did tell me that the rib was actually broken.

So there you go, now I know what a broken rib feels like. I can tick that box in my list of 'life experiences'. I'm looking forward to another kind of break in about two weeks...
