It's amazing how time flies. I can't believe my last update was over a month ago. A lot is happening here, but not much is worth mentioning. I am on the move again. Moving to a new place with a lot more space. Very very excited about that. Still trying to find a freaking job. THIS ECONOMY SUCKS! I have been going out a lot recently. Various clubs and whatnot. I stopped going for awhile because I was bored. I don't think I will make it a habit again, but this past week was pretty fun. I also should mention that I saw a kick ass band on Friday Night.
I really need to remember this feeling when working again. Being home all the time is not that great! I will enjoy working and schooling very much when it all starts up again.
Oh, thanks to all who stopped by my journal to wish me a happy birthday! It was an eventful day to say the least. I went to dancing Monday night wearing big shoes that don't fit me very well. I knew I shouldn't have worn them, but I did anyways. After getting properly intoxicated, I was walking and stepped into a pot hole, where I sprained my ankle. It's still not completely healed. The next day, I was icing it, and my friend told me I should heat it too. So, I put a towel in the microwave. For 2 minutes. I have no idea what I was thinking, but the next thing I know, we hear this huge explosion, run into the kitchen, and the microwave is ENGULFED in flames. Luckily we got it out ourselves without calling the fire department, but it was close. The kitchen was completely filled with smoke. We opened all the windows and stood around with towels fanning it out. I don't know why I have this habit of setting things on fire.. Must be the Aries in me...

Ice - to minimize swelling. 20 minutes every 3-4 hours
Elevate - keep foot elevated whenever possible will help keep swelling down
Compression - Ace bandage snugly, not tightly, wrapped around ankle
Above all, rest it. It will take longer to get better the more you tweak it.
