It's 'spring forward,' not 'fall down.'

I'm a little late in posting this one- stoopid daylight savings time I'm still not used to yet!

The Saturday before DST I went with the BDG to see Watchmen. I'll try to post later my opinion of it, for whatever that's worth as a comic book geek.

Anyhoo- after sitting nearly 3 hours and having imbibed in the better half of a 55 gallon drum of diet soda my mind was more focused on getting to the ladies room. The theaere we saw it at has those stupid shallow but long steps (2 1/2 steps before each step down) and the lights were pretty dim and there's no ' here's the ledge' trim and BOOM!

What can I say- my name is not Grace for a reason. I hyperextended everything in my left ankle. I'm sure it looked like something off an NFL instant replay- the one where the home viewers are going "OW! That's gotta hurt!"  I also bashed my knee, but over the years I've had my right knee bashed so many times a knee injury doesn't worry me as much, I can deal with it.

The ankle has me a little worried. I had a brace on it for almost a week (thanks, BDG!) and have been wearing a support wrap since then, but it has started to pop and it still pretty sensitive to the touch. That, plus wrestling big stoopid doggies daily at work and putting a hundred 9mublty-mumblty) pouds of body fat pressure isn't helping.

Guess I just gotta be patient. But guess what? My name isn't "Patience" for the same reason it's not 'Grace.'
