I'm a klutz.

Yeah, ok...so I'll start with yesterday. Printmaking was pretty good, but then I decided to skip Painting because I haven't missed a class yet and I just wanted a break. So instead I hung out with TV Dinner for a while then came back and just relaxed. I woke up around 6ish and got a shower and made myself look hot (just kidding). Then I went to pick up Writer so we could go get Chinese. This is where the fun began. As I was walking the 10 steps from my car to her door, I fell...I turned my ankle a bit and went down straight onto my left knee. I have not felt such pain in quite a while. So when Writer answered the door I had this terrible look on my face and just asked for ice immediately. I was still in pain, but decided to go on my way anyway. Driving was interesting since I have to use my left leg to push in the clutch. Anyway, we went to China Garden. It was a little more expensive than I expected, but it was yummy. Then we went to Real Life. I sat through the whole thing with ice on my knee. I felt stupid. Anyway, afterwards I just came home and rested. I went to bed and I was feeling ok. Well, the phone rang this morning and I got up to answer it and this intense sharp pain just shot through my whole leg. So I decided it might be a good idea to just get it checked out to make SURE that it isn't anything serious. So after Blue Jacket got out of class, she took me to Urgent Care. They did an x-ray, and told me that it was just really badly bruised. The doc said that sometimes if ligaments are damaged in falls like that, it takes a while to show up so if it doesn't get any better or if it gets worse, I'll have to go see a physician and probably get an MRI. But for now, she just told me to keep ice on it, take ibuprofen for the pain, and rest. So I'm fine. It was good to know that it was nothing serious. I just figured since I sprained my right knee years ago and it hurts all the time now because I didn't take care of it that it would be a good idea to make sure this one was taken care of.

So yeah, I'm just going to be chillin out on the couch for the afternoon, but then I'm hanging out with Writer to celebrate "Singles Awareness Day" which is known to all of you as Valentine's Day. That will be fun. We're gonna make some dinner and then watch Just Like Heaven or the opening ceremony of the olympics or both. Blue Jacket and her friend Costume Designer might join us which will be really cool.

Okie dokie, I'm gonna go watch Family matters. I hope all is well with everyone. I'm always keeping you in my prayers. Love ya ladies!!

God bless!

Single Awareness Day, huh? What ya'll should do is get a bunch of single girls, go out on Valentine's Day and flirt with all the guys!! LOL!

I hope your knee gets better...sometimes it would be better to break bones than to fracture or bruise or tear....I'm speaking from experience! LOL!

Lots of Love!

You know what I would do is wait until the day after V-Day and buy all the clearance chocolate and sit at home and watch girlie movies. chocolate is way better than a guy most times anyway.

Sorry about your fall. I know that knee pain is just the worst.

Feel better. Lots of love and see ya tomorrow. Maybe Elvis will let ya sit considering you are injured. :)

Sorry about your knee. That doesn't sound fun! :( Maybe I'll join you for "Singles Awareness Day". My hubby doesn't like getting me anything b/c it's so close to my birthday. What a good excuse, huh? Anyway, hope you had a nice weekend! Love ya!
