I wasn't going to post today

As I'm too foggy brained to post a writerly ways and I already did Jana's weekly round up. I am starting to feel marginally better as of @7 pm but that's hardly news worthy.

No today I finally remembered OMG RENT! I went up once and he wasn't there. I did manage to clean out the fridge and haul the garbage out and decided to try the landlord again. Big mistake.

Can I just say that I want to outlaw throw rugs. Door mats too. I don't even know what happened. I think the mat was wet and slipped. I was on the ground before I knew it. My bad leg bent under me and my ankle bent under that. So I landed right on my bad knee/hip. The hip doesn't hurt (oddly it feels better than it has in a week, maybe it got distracted from the joint a little). The knee I spent two months in therapy over? Destroyed. Luckily the knee itself isn't that bad but the quadriceps tendon attachment is raw meat. A 2X2 gauze pad is just a little too small so yeah nearly 3 inches of flesh ripped up.

My mid foot is twisted but feeling better now. Tore off part of a toenail but not to the point of bleeding (the knee is still oozing). I didn't think I hurt the ankle but it and the knee are clicking. The ankle is much more swollen than I anticipated but it's not really hurting. The back of my leg, my elbows and my butt are bruising nicely.

I was glad my favorite black velvet lounge pants are okay. They didn't rip. Apparently there is some mithril woven into them.

Therapy tomorrow will be fun.

Bite me 2016, you've been nothing but bad and we're only 5 weeks into you.
