Forced into retirement



Booooooo. It looks like I'll be retiring from surfing for the time being.

When I bailed on the big wave a few days ago, water got smashed into my ear. I was not wearing my earplugs.

I saw a doctor today, and he says there's now a tiny hole in my eardrum. This is disappointing, because the nurse i saw a few days ago said it was fine. I'll trust the doctor on this one.

He said it's important to keep it from getting infected, so I've decided to stop surfing as it could make it worse.

Now, my schedule is wide open for the next two weeks, and I'm not quite sure how to fill it. There are book stores all over the place here, so that's good I guess.

Wear your earplugs everyone.
