Put me on the DL coach

Yes, I finally hurt myself playing basketball. When you consider the law of averages and the state of my knees and ankles I'm surprised it didn't happen sooner. So I'm sure you're all wondering what happened. Well according to the doctor, since I went to the ER to get it X-rayed, I have a serious sprain injury however I'm pretty sure I actually dislocated it but popped it back into place before I went to the ER. The doctor wasn't sure about the dislocation part, but I'm pretty sure that when I snapped my foot from being at some crazy odd angle back to being in the proper angle that that likely constitutes as dislocation.

I'm basically out of playing ball for the rest of the year and I'll have to stay off my ankle for at least two weeks. The bad thing is that it's my right ankle and so I haven't figured out the whole driving thing yet. Maybe I can teach myself to handle the gas peddle with one of my crutches... (don't try this at home kids!!!)

For now though I'm kinda handicapped and depending on friends to help me get stuff and get around town.... Actually I'm hoping that my friends can help me get around town. This theory hasn't been tested yet. I will say this though; if it hadn't been for one friend in particular I might've had to figure out a way to drive my ass home by myself tonight. So to that friend I am very grateful and lucky to have her as such.
