i broke my damned leg. and i have quite the conflicted feelings about it. in any case, it hurts! and i think i have a right to whine about that aspect of it just a little bit.
ugggh, long story. basically a friend wanted to be carried and i sid i could do it. she said she was too fat for me to do it, which she is not. so i convinced her it was ok and she jumped into my arms before i was ready. we fell. on my leg and ankle. i thought it was just a sprained ankle, but i cried a bit and couldnt walk and things, so i thought it was one hell of a sprain! i almost didnt go to the doctor because i thought i was being silly, but the next day i went becuse i still couldnt walk on it and thought better safe than sorry because later in the week i would not be able to go. so the doctors even thougt it was probabyl a sprain because i wasnt crying in agony. they x-rayed it to cover thier asses and came back in totally surprised saying it was broken. its a spiral break on my left tibia. ick. i have a cast now that goes from my foot to half way up my thigh. on a plus hand, i was not being a drama queen or over reacting the night it happened, so that is nice to know. i went from being a wuss to a tuffie. and i have a temp.

hee hee, yeah, i have been an lj slacker. I only had 2 drinks when it happened, but the girl who wanted to be carried was drunk off her ass and so was my sister, who i had carried without issue just before the other girl wanted to be. So i was pretty sober, but it does sound like a stupid drunk thing to do, doesnt it? The full leg cast will be on until at least March 2, when i go back for more x-rays and then hopefully get a new, knee-legnth cast on instead for i don't know how long. ick! if i figure out how to get pics up on here, which I am sure i can do, i'll put up scanned version of my x-rays. its so weird! thanks rach, you rock.
