I shouldn't be allowed to walk anymore

[juldea]

What a horrible day.

I overslept by 3.5 hours. FOUR HOURS. This being because I was dumb and forgot to set my alarm clock last night. Feh. So instead of waking up at 5:30, I woke up at 9. Called my bosses and told them I'd be in in an hour and a half.

The bus that took me to the front door wasn't running at the right times, so I took the one that dropped me off a few blocks away. Due to traffic... at 10:47. At 11, there was a meeting scheduled with our new Department Director. Important. Therefore, I rushed down the street....catching my foot on a crack in the sidewalk, twisting my ankle, and falling on my knees/hands.

I have a skinned knee under my pants and, it looks like, another sprained ankle. Just weeks after healing from the knee injury.


Obviously, I am cursed.

Have you considered obtaining one of those walker type things with the tennis balls on the ends?

Suckitude. When it heals, can I recommend a strict regimen of ankle-strenghtening exercises? They REALLY help. But then, you have to be conscientious about doing them...


Okay. Why does LJ recommmend "Hackitude" as a spelling correction to Suckitude! Aaah!

If I knew what were exercises that strengthened ankles, yeah!

I'll write you up a list l8r; or search the lazyweb for baseball/softball exercises: twirling your ankles, stepping from side to side, things like that.

Sounds like things I already do at dance practices... *sigh*

:sighs, hugs Juldea:

Yeah, I think you need four bodybuilders to carry you around everywhere in a curtained sedan like the Dalai Lama travels in...

Sounds good to me. Wanna handle the details?

Haste makes...
