man, yesterday Blogger was pissing me off. i wasn't able to post. and then i come on today, and i find that everything was posted, so i had to delete all the test entries! sheesh!
if you haven't read yesterday's entry, do so now, and you'll know what i'm talking about for the rest of this post!
last night was a somewhat uncomfortable sleep. it only hurt when i wanted to shift. it felt like my knee was gonna bend backwards!! i need more support when i'm elevating my leg.
then this morning, i woke up to the sound of the stupid phone ringing. i answer it..BEEP BEEP...ARGH stupid fax machine! get a clue man, if your fax isn't going through for like the millionth time, i think you've got the wrong number!! gah! i tried to go back to sleep 'cuz i still had like an hr of sleep i could get, but my ankle was hurting like crazy. pain was like shooting up and down my foot area.
i've never suffered anything as serious as this. so yeah..i decided to go to the University of Waterloo Health Services on campus. i called AccessVan to see if i could get a ride there, but knowing University of Waterloo, they had lousy service. actually i didn't even get service 'cuz no one picked up! bastards! anyway, so i walked to Health Services..took me like 20mins when it should take me about 10-15mins. so yeah, got there, saw the nurse, filled out a form, and waited to see the doctor. up until the doctor part, it took me like 10mins, maybe 15. then waiting for the doctor took forever! i waited like an hour to see her. i ended up missing my class! :(
anyway, so i see the doc, and she asks me how i hurt it and stuff, and i tell her, i was playing intramural volleyball, and jumped and rolled it pretty bad. she said that she was surprised that my ankle was more swollen, so i must've done something right! :D so yeah, she felt around the leg, ankle, foot area. she found that i may have fractured the tip of my fibula. which is like the base of the shin bone thingy..yeah. so she ordered an X-ray to be taken at Grand River Hospital.
so i took a taxi to the hospital, and made my way around..looking for the X-ray clinic. first i went to the X-ray clinic, 'cuz i just followed the arrow, then they told me that i had to go somewhere to register for an x-ray, so i went there, and then i got called in, took the x-ray. i had a student nurse taking care of me! ;P she was kinda cute! haha! but anyway, so yeah, they told me to go home after that! hahaha..so i was like..wha? that's it? don't i get to know what's wrong with my ankle? but yeah, they said that they'd call Health Services here at school, and then if there is anything serious, that they'll call me here at WCRI. so i was like..alright! well, good! :D
so i took a taxi back to WCRI. i made back JUST on time for my 1.30pm COW duty. stupid lunchroom clean up! but yeah, i didn't want to switch up with anyone 'cuz that just creates a big mess. so i rather just keep it simple.
but now i'm back here. i'm glad that everything went as smoothly as it did today. i didn't know what the heck i was doing, and what kinda money i had to dish out. luckily i only had to pay for the taxi ride to and from the hospital. cost me about $18 in total. so not that bad.
my sister and my mom are coming back up tonight to bring me my crutches. doctor's orders! i should be on crutches for a couple weeks, and yeah. she said that i could be out for about 4-6 weeks! NOOO..that sucks! might as well forfeit my spot on the hockey team. :*( but i'm still gonna go and cheer 'em on. my sister and my mom are also bring up some other things i've forgotten, like my jacket, water bottle, and such.
it's been quite a day..now it's gonna be an interesting week. gotta learn to use those wretched crutches! BAH! and i hope those x-rays come back negative!
time to get some work done.
