(not so) Goodnight!

I sprained my ankle and all I got was this stupid bracelet...



But hey, it's still pretty accurate...

Bad Luck Emily Strikes Back

Guess who was having a perfectly wonderful day until something awful happened around the 5-6:00 hour?! THIS GIRL.

So this morning I went up to school and then rode up to West Side Market without a hitch, then had a marvelous time shopping around and eating my way through Cleveland. It was wonderful! We all had a blast. After that, I retrieved my keys without losing anything, then went home for a nice little nap. After that, I took pastries I bought over to my neighbors' house to celebrate my godmother's birthday! It was wonderful, I hung out there for awhile and then was forced to go to Mass with my parents. That's when everything went downhill.

I'm itching to get out of there, and as I walk out to my car, I miss a stair and fall, rolling my ankle. There was definitely a cracking noise. I had never been in so much pain in my life. It was MISERABLE. I screamed, a crowd gathered around me, and my parents had already driven away on their way to a restaurant in Cleveland. I flipped out and just sat there crying. I couldn't move anyways, everything hurt so badly. I kinda shooed the people around me away because they were freaking me out. I don't do well with strangers gathering around me and touching me and asking me questions and stuff. I felt bad for doing it, but I don't know what else I could have done! After that, I called my parents and they came and picked me up and took me to the Emergency Room.

The ER was a ghost town. Nonetheless, it still took forever to get anything done there. I had X Rays taken and all sorts of pain tests, yet they could not find anything conclusive. It's likely that I sprained it, which I really don't want to have happened. I just want the pain to stop so that I can go on with my life. I'm worried about my show now. This completely changes the blocking and the energy and dynamics of the show; I'm really really scared. 


From 4:30 to 7, I should just avoid any and all activity.
