Oh, come on!

So, I broke my toe last night. On the same box I pass maybe ten times a day on the way to the bathroom; the corner just slammed into the space between my little toe and my the one next to it. It was sticking out at a really... unattractive angle. After the intial panic and discussions about going to the hospital, we just started... laughing. In a bit of an hysterical way, truth be told, but still. I doubt anyone on my flist has seen The IT Crowd episode two of series one, Calamity Jen, but it reminded both of us of Jen's mangled feet. and then came the jokes about it secretly being a compass and how it was trying to find North.

Er, long story short, it's dark purple and black with bruises today but it doesn't hurt as much as we were worried; my sister even thinks it might just be sprained. Which I seriously hope. Thank goodness I don't have my sister's luck, who dropped a TV on her already broken toe back when she was in college! Sighs.

Peace, Ghani

Oh God, I know! And hobbling around the house is, well, okay because the rest of my foot doesn't really hurt but Ann goes back to work tomorrow which means I have to start walking the dogs, three two times a day! 0_0 That ought to be... interesting.

I've sprained or at least injured my right pinky toe more than once. It hurt like a bitch for a day or so, and turned various shades of black and blue and green and yellow for a week or so after.

Exact toe that I sprained/possibly broke and basically exactly what's happening. I have to stop panicking over the strange angle it insists on staying at because once it heals I know it'll go back to normal; that really is the only worrisome thing.

I'm incredibly lucky because I don't get a lot of physical injuries, but on the other hand I'm not used to them so I tend to get a bit, er, hysterical over it. Ann's been calming me down lots about it though so I'm slowly coming to terms! xP
