How Not To End Your Vacation →[More:] Way Number One To Not End Your Vacation: Do not, under any circumstances, fall down and break your ankle one hour after arriving home, necessitating a trip to the ER, surgery, and 3 nights in the hospital. Just plain don't do that. It's no fun. End your vacation in some other way, bunnies.

You may think you recognize the voice of experience in this. You would be right.

Just Call Me Hoppity

Holy crap! That IS a rotten way to end your vacation!

Hopefully you were at least tan, to contrast with the aqua-green hospital gown.

(Hope you heal up fast!)

Poor bunny.

I had only just recently made extensive vacation plans with my travel agent including this exact ending, but have now reconsidered.

Feel better soon!

One time I sprained my ankle terribly before a vacation so I couldn't do the thinks that I wanted to, like hike, flyfish etc. If you're gonna do something like that it's better to do it at the end. Get well soonly! (Oh, and Hoppity was the name of my bunny when I was 5).

Man, that sucks. I once pulled my right arch muscle in my foot right before going to dance camp for a week...did that ever reek.

Hope you get back on TWO feet soon. Eat more carrots!
