I fell today. It was not a pleasant experience. I'm wearing these newfangled "shape up" shoes with the curved sole, so I'm sure that didn't help. Why would someone as clumzy as me buy shoes with a rounded sole, I'll never know, but I did, and this is the price I pay.
Anyhoo, I hit this patch of refreeze, and down I do. It was like slow motion, but there was nothing I could do. I landed with my left leg at a wonky angle underneath me, and my right leg straing out. Somehow during this process I twisted my ankle. I had to sit there, in the middle of the parking lot, and collect myself before I could get up. The pain was almost instinatnious. Someone in leaving stopped their car and asked if I was ok. I said yes, but I still sat there for another few minutes. Then I got up and hobbled to class. Muddy, wet, and sore.
