This was interesting. I was sitting at a table, minding my own business and talking to audurada, when I suddenly developed an acute pain in my calf. So bad I couldn't move my leg or stand up. I was sobbing at one point which is not something you want to do when you're a guest at someone's house.
Seems likley (according to her husband who's a physical therapist) that my workouts this winter have put an excessive strain on my foot and this is the lovely result. A torn up Achilles tendon. We'd been drinking and I didn't relish the idea of going through the difficult process of taking a taxi home and then going back in the morning to pick up the car so I spent the night on their couch and drove home early this morning.
Dad dropped off a crutch and I'm on a steady diet of pain killers and bed rest.
Just dandy.
I had planned to start tearing down my kitchen today but will have to put that on hold. Walking between rooms is difficult enough. Weilding a crowbar, tearing down cupboards and throwing everything out - including the kitchen sink - doesn't seem advicable at this point.
