I hurt my back and leg and am going around with a (little) limp.
So one of my colleagues at work sees me struggling-limping down the long hall here, and they say to me this funny thing:
Did you fall in a gopher hole?
I had to take an aback because I never heard that phrase before.
Working outside the city here though, where a lot of people live in the burbs, and we regularly see all sorts of animals around campus, perhaps it wasn't so outlandish a question.
Anyway, as I'm limping, I can't get that funny image out of my head.
I wonder if other people have fallen in a gopher hole and that's why back problems are so common after all. ;-)
