I broke my foot last night at the bowling center when I slipped from a step between the pit and the concourse.  I have to go see an orthopedic doctor this afternoon for a cast, so right now I'm sitting here with my foot elevated and wrapped in a temporary splint.

Good news is that it's not a major break and should heal nicely.  It was after the 9th frame of my 3rd game.  I finished out the game, even though pivoting on the broken foot hurt like hell (I figured it was just a sprain at the time).  I did shoot 673 to finish, though.

6-8 weeks off my feet.  So much for the 5K I was planning to run in April...

Sorry to hear about the injury.  As Jess said, heal fast so you will be ready for "The Gathering!"

I wish you a speedy recovery.  

I was out for almost 4 months when I broke my foot - took 8 weeks for the doc to realize it wasn't going to heal and needed a screw/pin!
