I ripped my AC at AC
15 years ago
Gather around kids, I have a story to tell. This is the story of my double AC incident. (The story of my arm from hell)
Once upon a night at AC, 2010 or so I believe
I was participating in fursuit games,
to my surprise quite elegantly.
We won the first game with flying colors
And then the second, we beat out the others
The third started out well enough,
but that’s when things got a bit rough
As we played we made quite a fuss
It turned into a fight and became quite a mess.
As I swung at a mate, he caught me off balance, twas the ground I ate.
Lying broken on the floor, my team wasn’t done,
they wanted more.
They kicked and scratched till I finely got off the floor.
The damage was done, in the fall my AC had torn
But the end wasn’t bad, my team had won!
The story continues till late in the night
Ice packs, splints and finally some tape.
I decided to go to a hospital for treatment But on Sunday night, with no car,
it was imposable to travel that far.
I thought to my self, I’ll be home this time tomorrow
And headed back to the hotel to endure my great sorrow
In the morning I packed, got all my things together
Went down to the lobby where things got better.
The lobby was full of friends I knew well
I called for a cab, to take me away from the place where I fell.
It brought me to the airport 15 minuets late
Check in went well till I ran to the gate
“I’m sorry sir, but we couldn’t wait”
The plane had departed, I had missed my flight
I spent in the airport until the morning light
In the morning I woke, right at dawn
I looked around, all the employees were gone
I wandered around and found some Furs
Thunderstorms had grounded these nerds.
Then the time came to get on the flight
I got to the terminal at the time that was right.
I sat on the plane, row behind first class
I looked out the window to help the time pass.
From Pittsburgh to Denver then to LA
From there a bus took me the rest of the way.
My mom picked me up, she was quite surprised
I looked beat-up, my shoulder swollen in size.
Next stop was the hospital, the doctor asked me questions
He told me he thinks I have an AC separation
Before I left, he asked me how it happened
I answered; “I tripped on a snow leopard”, without a moment’s hesitation.
(AC , or Acromioclavicular Joint, is a ligament in the shoulder)
(AC is also short for Anthrocon)

I read it with much delight
Skillful rhymes, my friend
Shoulder ligament
Torn while fighting a leopard
I guess them's the breaks
No guts, no glory
You have emerged the victor
Congratulations
Get well, Question Mark
And bring a big appetite
We'll go out for shakes!
And I hope that arm heals right up quick as it can :D
*hugggggss tight*
oh... and what did the doctor say about the tripping over a leopard? >_>
