Sooo...I busted my foot. I was cleaning up after band on Saturday and was climbing a short staircase (four stairs), carrying a tray and stuff piled on the tray so that I couldn't see OVER said tray. I thought I was at the top of the stairs. But I wasn't. My toe caught the lip of the stair, my knee went in one direction and my toes, the other. Ick.
Luckily, having medically inclined brothers (a nursing student and a kinesiology student), I didn't have to spend the night in the emergency room. They diagnosed a severe soft tissue damage and lots of brusing. I have to say I agree with them. It's mighty gross. But colourful.
So, to heal, I've been ordered to stay barefoot, so that I don't compress the injury. And because it's too hard limping around with one shoe on, one off, I've spent the last few days barefoot. A surprising and not too pleasant way to check that one off the list, eh?
