"I'm not sure that there's a whole lot of planning involved," he said. He took the icepack down from his face again and put it over the back of his broken right hand in the hope that the chill would soak through the cast and help numb some of the pain.

He wasn't feeling very hungry but he picked up one of the chips form his plate and just looked at it for a moment, in his head he knew that he needed to eat something but he needed to convince the rest of him of that as well.
