Broke My Ankle

Well thanks to my high control of gravity I was able to walk out of a flip flop and break my right ankle this afternoon. Lovely experience, I encourage some of you to try it and see how fun it is.

What I didn't know is that if you break your ankle, your sense of balance on all levels totally disappears because while you are trying to balance on the other leg, which in my case happened to be my left undominant leg, all you can think about is the throbbing pain coming from your other ankle. So with the help of my friend who I called to help me from sitting in the middle of my lawn, I was able to get into his tiny car. I'm 5'8, his car was freaking tiny, and I know this because I had to get my crippled ass into it.

We got to the medical center and I soon found out that I would never want to have a life threatening situation and be stuck here. It took an hour to see a doctor, another hour to get an x-ray from a nurse who if my ankle had not been broken before, managed to break it turning it on the freaking table.

Next I got to go through the process of setting the bone, which I'm told MIGHT hurt. Might as in you might get hit by a a speeding vehicle if you sleep in the middle of a highway. Oh yeah it hurt.

So now I sit in front of the computer with a big yellow leg cast because you can't have just a cast that covers the ankle until later. I can't drive, I can't walk without lobbing myself through the air with stupid wooden crutches. Yeah life is good...
