Last night, DZ had an exchange with Sigma Chi. It was one of the most fun nights I've had in a long while, especially since Sam died. I've been in a slightly depressed and quiet state for three weeks and I needed to get out.
Well I danced the night away with my sisters and some cute Sigma Chis, I got to wear comfy clothes (for once!! Our theme was bed bath and beyond so I was wearing boxers and a tank top, it rocked, no heels in sight), and it was an all around fun night. But wait...
As the last song was ending Katie pulled me off the dance floor, which was slightly uneven because it was a false floor on top of the carpet, and my knee went the wrong way and I went down pretty hard. It hurt so badly, I couldn't put any weight on it so two of the Sigma Chi boys carried me to the bus, and then once we got back to campus this really really nice Public Safety officer carried me to his car, where he took Katie and Allie and me back to McCarthy so I wouldn't have to walk. But Allie and Katie couldn't even get me to my room, they put me on a couch in the study room and called the EMT's. I felt bad, it was like 2 am and we were all tired but my knee hurt so badly. The head EMT is my friend Mary's boyfriend which was slightly awkward but he was nice. He literally had to pick me up and place me in my bed. I didn't get to sleep until about 6 am.
I woke up this morning and my knee was more swollen and bruised and it hurt. I hobbled over to the health center (which is a big improvement, I could actually put weight on it even if it did hurt) and they don't know exactly what is wrong, but I might have a contusion; where it's swollen is right on the joint line so it's hard to tell. I'm on crutches for a few days and if I'm not able to walk properly in a week I have to get x-rays. I've been icing it all day and my knee has been propped up but in the last hour it's started to hurt more and more and I'm so frustrated. I don't know what to do besdes wait it out.
