First injury of the year!

I tripped spectacularly today! I was able to hobble around on it for a few hours, but now it’s slightly swollen and very tender. I’m going to see the doctor tomorrow to see if anything is really wrong. Hopefully, a night iced and elevated will help.

Now, this isn’t the first time I’ve fallen, but it’s been years since I’ve had a scraped knee and a sprained ankle.

Years ago, when I was a freshman at UCLA, I had a spill on the way to my musicology final. I broke my left foot.

I called my professor, explaining what had happened. He laughed a bit – as if to say, I know you’re telling the truth. No one would lie like this to get out of a musicology final.

Anyway, I’m icing and bandaging my ankle. Hopefully it looks good in the morning.
