Ankle of Doom

As life moves along sometimes we get knocked down. To get up again you’ll never keep me down.

*shakes head*

So anyways where was I? Okay Sunday I wake up and do the shower, get dressed, wake up girlfriend and we hang out surfing the intertubes on my laptop. I may convert her to Mac soon enough. But the night before I had done something I haven’t done with anyone. Took the girlfriend to meet the parents. That went incredibly well. I still need to meet her mom and I am looking forward to it but kinda worried but people always seem to enjoy me. Like you! Coming back all the time to read the personal blog of a guy in Seattle who has a slightly big ego.

So back to Sunday. Walking down the stairs and around the apartment complex I get to walk underneath the place to get into the parking structure. I slip and twist my ankle. I look at my leg and realize that is going to hurt in about 5 seconds. The girlfriend says “Are you okay?” I say I am good and stand up and then the pain hits. She got so inspired by the humor in this situation she drew a comic of it on a napkin at brunch.

You get to read it from the top left to the top right then bottom right to bottom left. It was drawn on a napkin and has been in my pocket.

So she is laughing and I am wanting to laugh but the pain is like only getting me to go “Ha” and she is going “Ha*(A Large Amount)” So she is wanting to drive but since it’s my left ankle I am like I can drive So we go have brunch and tell this story every chance we get. I skipped work on Monday because I was still in pain and couldn’t walk the 2.136 miles to work and back. So I went to the doctor and pretty much got told well ice, elevate, rest and take advil was the best practice. I did get him to look at my hand and he gave me an Rx for some ointment of sorts. I still need to try it out.

This blog started off earlier today as my experiences with having a girlfriend and the toilet seat debate. But I will save that for another day.

Lunch is over time to get back to work. =)

  1. Yeah it is a pretty good drawing.

    Raleigh is amazing she is a total keeper.

    She is even joining me at a total geek fest tonight which should make for a good blog tomorrow.

    Gotta love being in the same town as Microsoft and a Halo 3 Pre-Release Party at the IMAX Theater.
