Side not… ran to clinic yesterday to have my forearm looked at. Got a slight chemical burn due to my own stupidity 5 days beforehand . Decided to play it safe since I was getting worried about infection possibly setting in.

Well that’s ugly! Hope you heal up soon!

believe it or not… it looks worse than it feels. They but me on a antibiotic and gave me a expensive ointment that I guess is designed to remove any dead tissue,

Let me guess Santyl or something like that, expensive shit! . Be careful lifting while on the antibiotics.

Bingo…thats what it was! would have ran me $800 if it wasnt for my insurance. Ridiculous !

Damn, that looks ugly. On a side note, I gave my kid my sledge hammer. He likes to go up to the local high school to hit tires. Now, however, they have locked them up. He checked a tire store and they said they would give him a big one for free. My wife put a stop to that. He said he was doing it anyway. We’ll see how it goes for him.

Last summer I used to bring a beer into the basement with me on bench days. Didn’t do much for me I’m sure but it was a good time.

DIPs: 50 total reps (multiple sets)

Shoulder felt pissy… might have to play it smart and go back using Buffalo bar on my squats. At least to take some of the stress off of my old shoulders.
