So every morning, instead of skipping across the street and using the front doors of the school, I walk around the side of the school, around the clinic, to use the back doors of the school so that I can get a bit of fresh air and burn a handful of extra calories. Today was no different. I had a tupperware full of watermelon and coffee in hand and headed toward the library to study. So I was ready to go up the staircase inside the school, and missed the first step completely. My coffee went flying along with my watermelon, I rolled my right ankle and whacked my shin on the hard, marble (?) stair in attempts to break my tibia. Holy crow did that hurt!!!! It immediately swelled up, but I was so made I stomped to the bathroom, got some paper towel to mop up my precious caffeinated beverage off the stone stairs. But, at the time, I didn't care about my coffee because my shin hurt so much! I even had to go ask the ladies at the coffee shop for some ice in a plastic baggie so I could ice my shin in the library as I studied. All I can say is thank goodness nobody saw me! It would have been a sight to behold.
So now, I nurse a sore shin, sore back, and slightly achy hips. I am in great shape!
