After the fall

May 5, 2006 at 2:03 AM

I fell and injured myself on Monday and went to the ER in an ambulance. I had forgotten just how bad ERs can be. They did everything they could to make me feel worse, both physically and mentally. The injury is not serious (ligament and sprain on one ankle), but it’s horribly painful and I can barely stand up and walk. I’m also very tired. To go into or out of my home, I would have to walk up or down a lot of stairs, so I’m grounded for a while. ;-( I have no family, significant other, close friends, or even friendly neighbors, but some of my students and their parents have been helping me. Grumble grumble.

Sometimes I just wish could be somewhere else.
