Caught In The Whirlwind

Resting
Aug 21st
The last couple days haven’t been terribly eventful. I’ve basically been taking it easy so my foot can work on getting healed up, hopefully in time to do some walking around the state fair on Friday. It’s going to be cutting it close, but…we’ll see. It’s about the same as it has been. Not painful unless I’m walking on it. I’m also able to move my toes much more than when I had initially injured it, so that’s some progress. Not related to the fracture, I would imagine…probably some of the other damage that’s been healing up.
I also have an update on Fish. After I changed his water he seems to be happier. He’s spending more time swimming around and being happy and less sulking at the bottom. I’m trying to keep an eye on him though, just in case he’s really sick.
Lets see here…what else is going on… My roommates bought season 3 of Dexter, the Showtime series about everybody’s favorite serial killer. If you haven’t had a chance to see this show I would highly recommend giving it a try. Seasons 1 and 2 are availible on Netflix Instant Watch if you have that option.
And finally, it’s less than a week until I start school again. It still doesn’t feel like it’s something I’m really going to be doing. It feels like it’s much further away than next week.
Foot Update
Aug 18th
Well, I picked the one day to get injured where my doctors office didn’t have a working x-ray machine, so I had to go over to Urgent Care. After much waiting around it was determined that I might have a small fracture in my foot. The X-Ray wasn’t exactly clear, but there was a little “anomaly” as they called it that could be a fracture, so they’re treating it as such.
I got one of those special shoe type things that limits my foot motion when I walk. I was also outfit with crutches which I’m not sure how much use they’ll get. I’m so totally not coordinated enough to use these things. But I figure I can at least use one of them to help me keep some of my weight off of it when I’m walking.
I had planned on going to the State Fair at the end of next week, but this throws those plans into jeopardy… Hopefully I’ll be feeling better by then but I don’t want to push it.
