Crutching around....
Today was a typical day. My friend's daughter texted me wanting to walk dogs together. I willingly obliged. In fact, I enjoy walking with them. Simba and Ruffy have fun ignoring us, and we talk about random things that make me laugh and appreciate I'm no longer in Jr. High. Simba pulled hard and disobediently today so we decided that we'd break the law and let them run around for a while. It was great until a lone figure appeared out of no where. We snatched up the leashes and began running in the opposite direction. By now the sun began sinking under the horizon and the grayness started to engulf us. Simba, extra jovial tonight, pulled and tugged at his leash. I obliged and began running with him through the grass and dirt, the remains of a once beautiful golf course. To my surprise I found myself crashing down to the ground. SNAP! I heard a horrible sound come from my ankle. I couldn't move. The pain permeated from my ankle into my thigh. Laying on the ground I couldn't think about anything except for a conversation I had with Laura just last night, it was about how someone had broken their leg and they had to be helicoptered out of a camp site. I had said I would NEVER do that, I'd hop out. BUT the few seconds that led to me laying on the ground made me almost laugh. There was no way I'd be able to make it. The sharp pain radiated from beneath my heel. Eventually I made it home, Simba wouldn't let me ride him, although I tried to. And now here I am in a fake cast and crutches. I have to go to the doctors AGAIN in the morning because the xray tech wasn't in. I'm just hoping it isn't broken or torn....I hope it's just a BAD sprain.......*cross fingers*
