I'll be a purple-blue corpse.
I've been stuck in my home with my family, getting sicker and sicker since the 24th.
Yesterday, I was so sick, I think (as in, I'm not exactly sure how it happened) I fainted at the top of the stairs and fell down them. All I really know is that in one instance, I was at the top of the stairs and the next I was down five steps with my face nearly embedded into the back door. Thank God for that platform, and my ability to yank my possibly broken leg out from behind my body so that I was actually stabilized on that platform. Otherwise, I would have gone down another eight steps.
I've got a badly sprained ankle (yay for not broken ... I couldn't face my kindergarten kids in a week and a half with a stupid cast on). My toes are all bruised from being bent backwards and the top of my foot has rug burn from scraping against the carpeted stairs. Oh, and my ass hurts like hell. My tailbone is probably cracked, but apparently that's not important to the doctor that examined me. My other ankle is bruised from hitting against my ass on the way down ... on every single stair. Again, yay for having the platform.
I can barely sit down ... so not fun. And I start back at university in a week and a half? Kill me now.
I need to get over this cold so I stop feeling so weak ... Then I need to stop being such an easy bruiser. Or I need to stop falling down. Or collapsing. Or whatever the hell happened before I fell down the stairs.
Oh, and I also need to figure out what the hell is going on with my grades. One is being denied ... the same course that the director of the program mass e-mailed my section regarding grades ... But she didn't say anything about our grades being denied. Just that some of us might have cause to challenge our grades.
Gah, stupid university. I'm pretty sure I've got a B in the class, which is fine by me. My other grades make me happy. Curriculum II got me an A- ; Families in a Canadian Context got me an A+ ; and Cognitive Development got me a B+. Stupid Children with Special Needs class. Give me my damn mark.
