I hurt my ankle...Listen to me whine, please...
x(

I was coming down the library steps at UMASS Beantown this afternoon, carrying about 40-50 lbs of books and binders on my left shoulder (I know, bad, bad habit), and on the last one, my left ankle rolled out. Owwwweeee! x(

Not swollen, still hurts like a mofo though... :(

And, I've had a sore throat since I got up....Good Lounge vibes for me not being sick would be appreciated. :)

:hi:

1. ohnoooooonono. Owie.
I've been there.

:hi: <----major klutz

Stay off the ankle, and take advil every 4-6 hours to help keep the swelling down. Owie. (and mods, that's not medical advice, just plain old common knowledge)

Hot honey & lemon juice for the throat. Make sniffa take care of you.

2. Take advantage of it being the weekend and REST
Stay off the ankle and stay out of the cold air. Hang out on DU and fight the good fight :)

Rest, ICe, and Elevation.

Ice that ankle and keep it up above your hip.

OK?

10. Bet there was a 6-pack mixed in there somewhere.
Next time, have your alkie-hol delivered like sensible drinkers do.

18. Did I say anything about you being drunk? No...go back and read it, unless you are presently drunk.
What I said was, you must have added the weight of a six-pack to your load. OMG, you are so Quincy...I have to love you for that.

22. That never stopped me.
Plus I nipped on my six-pack which I kept in my desk drawer when I worked at MGH AFTER I had a 3 martini (rum, BTW)lunch at Harvard Gardens.
