selenaySomehow, I sprained my knee in the night. I'm pretty sure it didn't dislocate (I normally notice that), but it is taking great objection to bearing weight, bending and straightening, stairs and hills.
Argh.
It's much more comfortable if I used my cane and I'm smart enough to know that these things don't heal if I abuse them. Double argh.
I had errands to run today. Many errands. When I'm having to use my cane, several things are firmly pointed out to me:
1) The world is designed for people with two free hands
2) Being a cripple makes you invisible
3) Stores filled with people because it's six weeks to Christmas are not possible to negotiate if you're a cripple
By the time I got home, I hated most of humanity. But! I had fresh fruit and veg, some yummy sausages, some outdoor Christmas lights, a tree for my aunt and a present for a friend's baby. I was also able to deposit some money in the bank and I have no officially saved up for an iPod Touch. That I am still debating. Oh, silly indecisive brain. I want one and I've saved for it, but what if I need that money later?
Shortly, I am going out with my aunt to eat Thai food and then watch the new Harry Potter. Obviously I am not excited about this at all because that would be just childish.
...
Squeeee!
