so like my post from yesterday was pointing at, i had a halloween party to go to last night. so did like 70 other people who wanted to park on the same street. so i parked on the next street over. didn't really think much of it, figured a little walk is never a bad thing. i ended up being slightly wrong on that this time. when i went to step up onto the curb, my heel caught on either the curb or the street. i totally tripped and fell to my knees. probably would have landed a lot better if i hadn't been trying to protect the six pack i was holding. anyway, i got up, limped around a little, and figured i would just walk it off. got to the party and sat on the couch until it felt better. great i thought, everything is ok now since it doesn't hurt anymore. so i got up and did the party thing. toward the end of the night, it started to hurt again, so i sat down for a while. it was feeling ok by the time i decided to go home. walked to the car with no problems. and then i got home. once i took off my boots i realized that the only reason that it had been feeling ok was because my boots are skin tight and had been holding pressure on it and not letting it swell. once the boots were off, it started swelling. and bruising. and now i can't even put weight on it, so i've been hopping around on one foot to get to different parts of my apartment. since i'm pretty nonfunctional right now, dani is being awesome and going to the store to get me some meds and a wrap. at least it's no longer making the popping sounds that it was last night. i'm hoping i can fix it myself today, and if it's not improving by tomorrow when i wake up i'll go to a doctor. le sigh. at least i looked good last night.
