Out of Commission - Sorta
Well, I was right about it not being broken. I bit the bullet this morning and went to the doctor. They x-rayed my ankle and I'm on crutches and got a snazzy new sprain boot to wear for the next week or so. Lovely. I was so relieved that it wasn't broken though. The lady who checked me in told me not to eat anything in case I needed surgery and then wondered why my blood pressure was a little high. Um, maybe because I was in a butt-load of pain and you just mentioned surgery to me? I think that would do it.
After I got done at the doctor I had to make a pit stop at the grocery store for a few items. I rode around in one of those motorized cart scooter things. I felt so conspicuous, like everyone was staring and judging me for using one of those things. I never have before and hopefully won't have to again. They beep when they back up! Loudly! I felt like I was driving a backhoe or something. It was ridiculous!
Anyway, this just gives me incentive to haul out my laptop, set up on the love seat with my foot elevated and get some serious writing done.
