Just call me "The Gimp."

[winneganfake]

Depression, exhaustion, and deadlines aren't enough it appears. Instead, I must now also deal with excruciating pain.

Was taking some recycling down to the dumpster when my foot slipped off the steps (Capezio? That no-slippage statement about your dancesneakers line? You may want to revise it.) and hit the step below rather badly. It's never a good thing when you suddenly realize "hey, the inside of my foot is nearly touching the inside of my leg!"

Hence, I am now the gimp. Brenna at least seems to realize something's not all well with me at least, and she hasn't been pulling me around the room like normal. But otherwise, mobility limited for me for the weekend.

did you BREAK it?? that's what this sounds like. Are you going to be okay?

are you just trying to show me up? Or show me how it is really done?

it's not a competition you know. :P

seriously man, no good. ibuprofen is your friend. It will help keep the inflamation down.

I'll be fine- this ankle's been strained, sprained, twisted, folded, spindled and mutilated enough times that the ligaments practically seem to have loosened up enough to allow some rather painful impossibilities.

As for competing, I'm still waiting to hear back from the French judge. I'm hoping for at least a 6.9 though.

I'd hit the ibuprofen, but it's no good on my stomach. Alleve for the swelling and asprin in a while for the pain.

I think I got an 8.2 from the judges, on my fall, but that was mostly for distance and grace. ;)

Gah! Hope that gets to feeling better before too long. I hate being all hobbly.

Sorry to miss you at the shindig... hope your recovery goes smoothly.

Owie. Missed you guys last night, hope you're feeling better soon.

Look at the bright side - at least you don't have to worry about standing around on it all day making coffee!
