The Rumble

Last night at the Gangster Hills a fellow runner's toes got into a fight. I didn't have my camera so I'll spare you the image of these two toe's duking it out but this is how it went down:

Toe 1: What are you looking at?

Toe 2: Whatever I feel like looking at. In fact I bite my toenail at you sir.

Toe 1: What the crap does that mean?

Toe 2: I dunno. Some Shakespeare guy said it.

Toe 1: Well it's lame. Just like you.

Toe 2: You want to take this outside?

Toe 1: Um, we're stuck in socks and shoes so no. But we can do this. Right here. Right now.

Toe 2: Oh it's go time!

[Toes begin to beat the crap out of each other and bloody sock ensues]

Toe 1: Well that was dumb.

Toe 2: Yes it was. That escalated quickly. I mean that really got out of hand fast.

Toe 1: Sure did. Let's call a truce shall we?

Toe 2: Yes. I will never bite my toenail at you again sir.

[And scene]

This is what happens when you have an overactive imagination and nothing really to report on regarding the running front. Training continues...

Happy Tuesday, stay outta trouble.

I am wondering many things - but specifically, what toes?

Toe's 3 & 4. The captain of the toes and his first lieutenant couldn't be bothered. And Pinky, well Pinky keeps to himself.

BAhahhahaha, thanks for the Tuesday chuckle!

Maybe that's what's bene going on inside my socks...

That's too funny!

Meg Runs said...

Sounds like a "rap" in the making!

Julia said...

You are too funny. Remembering to clip the toenails works wonders

Heather said...

Too funny. Poor socks. It's always the innocent ones that get hurt.

ahhh i used to be able to recite that whole Shakespeare dialogue about biting your thumb but not at thee, SIR. How quickly i am getting old!

Jen said...

My toes must have had a similar conversation because a couple of them like to turn black and blue. It must be tough being cooped up in those shoes for such a long time. Love it!

it's all about pace said...

"Pinky keeps to himself" - LOL

Patrick said...

You crack me up!!! What a great-- somewhat bizarre- but funny post!! I love it.

You are one of my favorites-- sorry I haven't been responding-- I am back in the swing of things now-- so I have no more excuses!

Morgan said...

So that is what happened to my toe nails! It all makes perfect sense now!!! LOL!

As the owner of said toes, let me add that it did get a bit out of "foot", and I as well as the toes were a little lame after it all. Thankfully, the blood washed out of my sock and shoe fairly well. It was a bit of a shock, I must admit, to look down at my feet and see the whole toe area of my shoe going red!

B.o.B. said...

You do have some angry toes. I can't believe it went through to your shoe!

unathleticrunner said...

You crack me up! Stay out of trouble? NEVER!

Kelly said...

ahahahhaa... Happy Tuesday to you too!

Irish Cream said...

HAHAHA, oh no . . . sounds like quite the bloodbath! Don't mess with toes, man. They are some crazy-tough motherf-ers!

I'm just glad these aren't your toes or mine! Hope your Wednesday is a bit more productive ;-)

Your toes talk to each other? I seriously need to listen to my body better. Another bloggy friend just had an entire dialogue between herself and....herself. Now your toes. I love it. :)
