Too young too feel this damn old!
Yesterday, while being my usual graceful self (read that phrase with VERY heavy sarcasm!), I went flying head first down a flight of stairs at school. I managed to catch myself about half way down. I did some kind of half twist in the air, felt my leg (the left one, the one I screwed up last summer) do some kind of weird contortion, and ended up on both my knees facing UP the stairs. Needless to say, I now feel (and walk) like an 80 yr old woman.
At first it was just my ankle that was hurting (twisted it pretty badly), but now, I guess as a result of catching myself against the banister with my left arm, my arm, my back, and my knee are all extremely sore.
It's like the first days after a car wreck - you begin feeling more and more sore the more time passes.
The best (again, HEAVY sarcasm) part of this is that there was a witness. One that works in the building. One that proceeded to tell the other secretary that works in the building. One who then went on to tell ALL of the staff (faculty, adjunct faculty, the director of the school of Social Work, and all other support staff) AND half the students.
Oh, and I start my new job tomorrow. Great timing.
Yeah, it's been a great couple of days. *shaking head*
