I wanna be like Moose...

So, on my way to campus house last night I had a painful experience. It was emotionally and physically painful. I was walking across the lawn toward the PSU with Crystal Coakley and there it was, a horrible clown in all of his rainbow wigged glory. I "wigged" out and tried to go another way and ended up falling in a hole in the lawn. I felt my ankle pop and had to stand there for a few minutes so I wouldn't throw up. Once I was able to walk, Crystal helped me to the PSU. We looked at my ankle and I don't think I've ever seen anything that huge in my life. I took my shoe and sock off so it wouldn't cut my foot off because it wasn't finished swelling. I tried to stay for CCH, but the pain was too much and the bass was shaking the chair I had my foot elevated on, so I had to head out.

I went home to call my mom and watch Arrested Development to cheer me up. Crystal and Christina Hahn came over around 11:30pm and made me go to the hospital because my ankle was turning a nice blue/purple color. They wheeled me in and I got x-rays and I found out it's not broken, PRAISE GOD, but I sprained the crap out of it. The girls made me tell the nurse and doctor what really happened and they of course laughed at me. Hey, one person's pain is another's source of joy and amusement. I'm glad I could help. I have crutches, but I have made the executive decision not to use them because I almost fell on my face 10 times this morning and I really don't want to do anymore damage. The ankle is still swollen and quite bruised, but I'll live and I'll drive to Texas tomorrow.

So, Moose, here's to you buddy. We'll be gimps together. I'm thinking about pimping out my crutches even though I'm not using them, but when my mom gets here today I'm sure she will make me. Alright, it always happens in threes....so who's comin' with us?!

That's what you get for making fun of me. Just kidding! Did they give you a perscription like mine? We should start a club, a footclub (but not a 'club foot' - ew) Any ideas for names, let me know. Hopefully it heals quick (you should take a picture before it does, though, and put it in a scrapbook :)

Okay, I know you guys miss me, but seriously...purposely injuring yourselves so you could hobble around just like me is a little excessive...creepy, even...I guess if you can't have me, you'll just try to be me. Copycats. Get your own disability! Geez!
