dchenesI might have overdone it just a bit yesterday, ankle-wise, but I had a case of cabin fever, and stuff to do, and I wanted to see if I could do it without the Iron Maiden. When I got down to the driveway with both sneakers on, I wanted to celebrate (although dancing still is not a good idea, so I just stood there and grinned like an idiot).
After I got done standing there, I hiked down to Washington Square and took a picture of the divot I sprained my ankle in, and then went off to REI and finally bought more socks. Walking back to Kenmore afterward maybe wasn't a brilliant idea, but it was Sunday, so there was no 65 bus. That's the really annoying thing I'm finding about this whole saga; I either get to stand around for 20 minutes waiting for a bus, or I get to walk too much. And I usually come down on the side of walking too much, because standing around with a sore ankle isn't all that much fun either. I went home after REI because I couldn't face waiting for the C at Kenmore (having just missed one) and taking it to Coolidge Corner and then waiting for the 66 down to Brookline Village (every 20 minutes on Sundays) and then walking out to the dive shop. I really ought to do that today, especially since work ends at 1:00 and it's easy to get there from here.
Since the Fenway movie theater is around the corner from REI, I also went there and tried to buy a Star Wars ticket for this afternoon. Wasn't gonna happen unless I wanted to sit in the front row. So I guess it'll wait until I get back from Noank.
Today the ankle hurts worse than it has been, but it also hurts in a very specific and different place than it has been, so I don't know if I did that yesterday or if it's just that tendon's turn to hurt. Advil does seem to be the thing to do about it, though.
In other news, I don't know what they put in Purina NF Advanced Care kidney wet food as a binder, but it might as well be Elmer's glue. The stuff sticks to utensils when wet and holds onto the dishes like cement when it dries. Fortunately both cats seem inclined to eat it. Hopefully it sticks to their ribs, too.
