this post has nothing to do with the the clash’s classic album london calling

I hurt myself pretty badly on Friday, and may have cracked a rib. I’ll have details in a future blog post that’s currently unwritten, but exquisitely funny in my head.

The excruciating pain in my chest, plus the Olympics, plus spending a lot of time in the Geeks group at Propeller, plus Ryan going back to school at the end of the week means that I don’t have a lot of time left over (or motivation) to do any blogging at the moment.

Here’s a nifty picture I took at Comic-Con, though, featuring my favorite cosplay of the con, and a little bit of MC Frontalot:

And here’s that picture of me as a lemon that everyone’s been asking to see since 1979:

  5. @jslicer – I think it goes like this…
    When life gives you lemons:
    1) Put Wil Wheaton in a cutout of one.
    2) Find someone whose life has given them vodka.
    3) Have a party.
    😀

  7. Hey Wil I have several friends who have long-term pain because they hurt their ribs and they didn’t go to a doctor soon enough. I would make and appointment if I were you. BTW I enjoyed “Just a Geek” The Audio-Book and I started “Dancing Barefoot” as soon as it came in the mail today. It has been great so far, and I look forward to my copy of “The Happiest days of our Lives” arriving in the mail soon. Take care Wil.

  10. Wow…. it sounds as though you have not had a good time the last few days. I’m sorry about the ribs – it must be painful to sleep, sneeze, laugh, cough, and basically just move in general. I hope you are seeking medical attention because BrentMc is correct about the lasting pain.
    A lemon with sunglasses…. cute. You could be in a Fruit-Of-The-Loom commercial.
    Kidding…..

  11. Well, that’s what happens when you forget that YOU ARE OLD now! >30=O.L.D.
    It sucks, but you better start getting used to, unless you want to really fuck yourself up, and end up needing a cane to walk around in 15 years, when you are in your FIFTIES!
    (I know, it’s harsh, but it’s time to face facts… 🙂

  12. So all of those fellas out there with ladies to impress, it’s easy to do, just follow these steps.
    1. Cut a hole in a lemon.
    2. Put yo’ head in that lemon.
    3. Take a picture of that lemon.
    And that’s the way you do it.

  14. Here I thought you were just in serious head down mode. I even sent you good mojo for avoiding bumping into doors/walls/kitchen cupboards/stepping on anything important/unimportant but with wheels/falling down stairs and keeping teh Lucy’s off your piano while in said mode. if I missed anything I apologize. But I didn’t really start missing (read craving) your wit until Sunday… oops.
    I hope that you are better soon and stay that way.
    Sending healing mojo.

  16. Wil,
    Apropos of nothing, do you check out GraphJam? Some are weird, some are tolerably clever, and some are hilarious.
    This one made me think of you.
    P.S. I hope your ribs get un-hurty soon.

  18. Sounds like Guinness and pain killer time to me. Also see a doctor. If things heal wrong its for life. I learned that over 35 means I’m not superman any more, don’t you learn the hard way.

  19. Ok, maybe trying to make a musical fan version of “Army of Darkness” wasn’t your brightest idea. I’m sending positive, calcium based vibes your way.

  20. And what will future generations say of our society when they see this picture? And it will be:
    “Is that man on the far right wearing an orange tie???”

  22. Just Last night about 1 AM, I was sound asleep and fell out of bed landing to a sickening crunch. I am seeing a Dr in about an hour to look at my poor ribs. I feel your pain.
    The worst part was the daughter coming into the room wondering what all the commotion was about and when we told her I fell out of bed she just laughed and went back to sleep

  23. Oh, crap! Hope you’re okay, Wil. Aren’t the Olympics awesome? My partner and I get so excited watching Michael Phelps trounce everyone.

  24. I caught “Mr. Stitch” at the start of the car chase scene. At first I wondered who was under that odd makeup and then I suddenly recognized the eyes…
    The things we do for out art. 😀

  26. Reasons for Wil’s cracked ribs
    1. Anne elbowed him in rib for bad joke about lemons.
    2. slipped in bathtub (most accidents happen at home).
    3. Playing guitar hero and slipped doing the power stance.
    4.Matrix moves on a 10 year old and met his match
    5. W.F.S. gut checked him.

  27. Seriously… I fell in the tub and cracked my ribs. It’s a hard place to treat. Painkillers and rest. Good look Wil.

  28. Ouch! You cracked a rib? I can very well feel with you, because that happened to me a couple years ago. It still hurt even half a year after the actual accident…ugh. I hope, you’ll get better, soon!
    Thanks for the very nice pics!

  29. Actually, I fell down while roller skating on Friday. The story really is much funnier in my head. Stupid First Law of Motion.

  32. I’m so sorry about your ribs!! Hope you get better SOON!!
    Cute lemon picture.
    I’m so jealousy that you can still get Thrifty ice cream. I am in Alabama. Apparently Rite-aids in other places do not have the Thrifty ice cream. 🙁
