Mood:  caffeinated
Now Playing: My Knee Really Hurts
Friday afternoon, I was putting the carseat in the car. No problem. I then tightened it down. No problem. Then, I tried to get out of the car. Problem. My foot slipped and my knee landed on "door jam" area. Hit my kneecap. Hurt like algebra class. I ended up limping around for the rest of the evening, thinking, "it'll be fine. I'll put my leg up when I go to sleep and it'll be fine in the morning." Saturday morning rolls around, I have class at 9 a.m.. I get up at 8:55 a.m., my school is a half an hour away. I jump out of bed and promptly fall on my ass on a pair of shoes. (So then my butt hurt too, but this blog isn't about my tushie.) My knee had briefly gone out, my leg collapse under me. When I stood up, my knee seemed to be on fire with a searing pain that I can only describe as "Owwie, owwie, owwie!" So I ended up being gimpy all of that day too, I didn't go to class either, because it was my right knee that was all screwed up and I therefore couldn't drive. Sunday, it still hurt, but not as bad. Monday, it didn't really hurt too much, but every time I straightened it out, it would hyperextend beyond all reason, and it only hurt a little when I put weight on it. It kept cracking as well, for no apparent reason, cracking and hyperextending. The hyperextending hurts. Oddly, though, the bruising didn't show up until Monday. I'm starting to think that maybe I should see a doctor, but you know me, I'm stubborn. I don't like doctors, it's not personal, I just don't like them. They smell like generic antibacterial soap and alcohol. White trench coats are not flattering, no matter how many cute damned button you put on them. I digress. Knowing me, I probably won't see the doctor until it's too late to do anything about the problem. Did I mention that I don't like doctor offices either? They smell like saline solution. Once again, I digress. In conclusion, my knee really hurts.

I know, it's not the best blog, but at least I posted something.

Never a dull moment...
