Yet More Ankle-Related Bitching.

Sep 22, 2005 10:56

Oh, sweet shrieking Jesus. I'm clumsy (clumsier than usual, even) because my stupid ankle hurts, so I keep wobbling and lurching and stumbling, and as a result I keep hurting my ankle even more. Of course, this makes me still clumsier, which results in further wobbling, lurching, and stumbling. It is a vicious cycle of gimpitude ( Read more... )

Ok, fellow FriendBots, I think it's time to start considering two words:

Protective. Custody.

Or two other (more fun) words:

Helper. Monkey.

What I really need is a chauffeur. I wonder if Legolas drives?

A. I want a helper monkey but he must wear a diaper. Think of the cute diaper covers!

B. Dude, I have my own tag! I rule!

C. I have fashioned under my desk a semi-stable ottoman made of a box of copier paper and a laptop case so's I can keep the gimpy knee elevated.

A. Ooh, diaper covers! I could crochet them. Aaaahhh.

I just had a total CraftGeek moment.

B. Of course you do. You are fantabulous.

C. I have an empty copier paper box under my desk, but I kept kicking the computer, so now I have a chair next to my desk. You have no idea what a lovely picture I present to people who walk into my office. *shudder*

I used to put the PC towers under the desks around here until the cleaning crew used that as their excuse to not vacuum. Fuckers. I moved every single one of them to the desktop.

You aren't wearing a skirt, are you? That would be sexé.

Re: 3 thoughts trista September 22 2005, 18:48:52 UTC

What a bunch of bastards. I hate wasting space on the desktop like that.

No, I'm not wearing a skirt. *shriek* That would indeed be sexé. I can just see it. White V-neck sweater, ankle-length black skirt, running shoes, ACE bandage. Left let propped up on chair. Right foot on floor. Horrified guests. Yeah.

Elevation (on a pile of pillows, not in an F.M. shoe), refrigeration, heating, wrapping. Also, continued twisting, bashing, and dropping-upon. I think the second bunch cancels out the first.

Yes, as my honorary big brother, you may call me Clumsalina. That works out nicely, really. For one thing, it's accurate, and for another, it goes well with dawnshine's nickname, Puffulina.
