Friends in HighHeels

Nov 04, 2006 16:23

So my friend had broken her ankle. She wore heels to lecture and apparently cannot walk in them. She was in a rush to get to tutorial and grabbed her bag -- her body went one way, he foot in the opposite direction and ... well. Much of my Thursday was spent in the hospital with her as we waited for X-rays which confirmed the break that the doctor was insisting she didn't have. I'm quite unimpressed with how they handled her at the hospital. She had to wait a day before they took x-rays, they sent her home without ANYTHING except a pair of crutches, and when the X-rays got back on Friday, the nurse was trying to say that the doctor wouldn't see her until the following week. Luckily, that was cleared-up and she's taken care of, with a large boot-cast and crutches, but she's hobbling around without them when she can.

In the meantime, I've been trying to get my reading done, and study for my Midterm on Friday, as well as work on my paper which is due on the 15, so we get an extra day on this one. As well as make sure Holly doesn't go stir-crazy (as she's wont to do when left on her own for too long ^_^ ). In other news, my instinctive urge to procrastinate and avoid work has led me to Firefox which is glorious and beautiful. Now I don't have to wait months on end before I can put my banners up at BJFic, or post chapters at Midnight Whispers so that my fics don't appear as one single terrible horrible paragraph! Hoorah! I'm in love.
