this hurt

craig had  blackhawks practice today and sam threw a baseball at craig's foot.  it wasn't on purpose, but still.  take a look:

i was positive the ankle bone was broken.  being a man, craig followed the unwritten rule that he could not visit a physician unless death was imminent, and he went to bed.  this was even after i begged him to go to the hospital.  it turned out he was right.  this time.  this morning when he woke up his foot was about 40 percent less swollen and he could put some weight on it.  all i can say is it's a good thing sam didn't try to hurt craig. 
caroline was selected as an outstanding student of the week at her school.  she got a free meal coupon at cafe rio.  this worked out really, really good for me because in addition to being proud of her for her oustanding-ness, i had no interest whatsoever in cooking dinner yesterday.  when she came home with the good news, i thought it was perfect.  i could tell craig we were getting cafe rio so we could use caroline's coupon without having to admit that there was really no back-up plan in the works.
