Justin, I'm curious whether you know HOW you managed to tear two muscles in your chest. Any ideas? Or should we just start making them up?

Doing yard work -- pulling out some bushes that had quite deep roots. I had a couple teens helping, so it was like playing tug-o-war with the ground.

And here I was hoping it was something like, you used your superhuman powers to pick up and throw a car (or even a train!), or you pushed yourself too hard flexing for a romance novel cover shoot, or that you tried ripping yourself in half because some gal guessed your super secret name.
...But that might just be me.
See, even being told how it happened doesn't stop me from coming up with reasons.

Do we need to buy you a bro, Justin?

A month ago I burned my arm with oatmeal. I still have the scar. You see, I like to injure myself in very non-heroic ways.

He fought the ground, and the ground won.
Also the oatmeal.
Justin, your comic book name can be: "The Man Of A Thousand Ridiculously Obscure Injuries".

Don't worry about it, Justin. I once suffered a near K.O. to the clothes washer lid.

...a father-in-law who wins an Xbox 360 and Guitar Hero 3 as a random prize in a silent auction, then gives them to you for free because he wouldn't use them much and knows you will.
I like to think of it as a belated dowry.

Being 32 years old, going up to an ice cream counter, looking the clerk square in the eyes, and saying, "I'd like a scoop of butter pecan, please. WITH gummy worms on top."

I try not to put too much stock in possessions, but any day where you're out in beautiful sunshine and pick up the first ever Doctor Who story, really beautiful yarn, an external hard drive AND Chinese food can't be all bad.

A glass of good scotch and whatever disc of whatever season of Scrubs I happen to grab off the shelf. I like to balance my taste for the finer things in life with something grown-up, e.g. my glass of scotch.
