well FUCK.

Just a quick life update.

So..... ice is dangerous. Ice is slippery.

Ice can lead to a Norcumi with a broken leg.

It really. Really. Fucking. Sucks. Spent much of yesterday in the emergency room after falling on the ice in an attempt to catch the bus - would have been successful, but instead my feet went one way, I went another, there was an ungodly snap, and then I was swearing a lot. Right lower leg is in a split and needs to remain elevated - meaning I'm on my back and in pain not so much from the leg I can't move much as from my headache (prolly due to the vicodine?) and the backache from being in 1 position all. fucking. day. long. At least (said seriously, not sarcastic) Quindar is at work for most of the day, so when I finally need to migrate upstairs to use the bathroom I can scream, whimper, and curse without feeling guilty about it.

Doc appointment tomorrow to learn when I can get surgery and pins put in so hopefully not so much with the annoying painful wait-for-the-swelling-to-go-down splint. The swelling is obviously going down, because when I move around now, there's vastly painful movement from within the splint.

At least The Valkyria Chronicles are turning out to be a good purchase.

Yikes! Ow ow ow ow ow. Is it a bad break, or just a clean snap? Hope it's the latter, those heal better, I've heard.

Hope you feel better!

Well, it's bad in that I did damage to all the things down there that I could (fibula, tibia, and the tendon). Beyond that, they haven't said. The surgery I'm scheduled for looks to be totally standard procedure, so.... ::shrugs::

thanks!
