Well, Humpty Dumpty had a great fall today.
It could have been caused by the pavement, still wet from this Friday's morning rains, or the freshly mopped floor of our building. Maybe. All i know is that I buckled while walking, twisted my left ankle, and everything came tumbling down after.
My foot hurt, but I think it was my ego which got a little more bruised. I ended up laughing myself eventually though. I'm thinking that this should be a good thing -- let's get the embarrassment out of the way early on in the month, so I can make room for bigger things. When I lose fear of falling or failing, I can thereafter move a step towards winning.
Anyway, back to my foot. I can walk fine I suppose, but there's a slight discomfort when I bend or rotate my left ankle. I normally wouldn't mind, but I'd been intent on running this weekend and I don't know if I can or should. While I can push back running to next week if I wanted to, I do miss it already. Miss it enough to write about it again. (Ha! My old self, the version that dates 4 years back, would have never seen running as a treat to look forward to.)
Howell...
Let's see...
