A is for Rebel.
Sunday, I broke my foot. Spooky coincidence that it was the 3 year anniversary from my original foot break. When I tripped and looked down at the immediate bruising and swelling, I freaked out because I thought I re broke the same spot from before. I went to Urgent Care (and had a ridiculous co pay because I'm in between insurances for TWO WEEKS, and had to use my secondary insurance. Why couldn't it have fallen on the other 50 weeks this year?) The doctor confirmed a break, but it was a very small crack next to the old one and not through any joints. He told me to take a boot, crutches and tried giving me a pain shot. He wrote a Rx for Naproxen and tried to give me a doctor's note so work could park me closer than the parking garage a mile away. I didn't take any of it and the Rx is still sitting on my passenger seat. I went running today. Stupid.. probably. I don't feel it, and my brain needs running. I know there's long term effects possibly, I know everyone thinks I'm insane. It's actually just the side of my big toe, and like I said, no complete break, not through the joint. Lots of people have ran on broken toes. My whole foot is a giant bruise, but the only time I ever feel it is if I push on it, or I'm completely barefoot and cold. (I already had cold sensitivity in my foot from 3 year's ago's break). I think the point of this post was that, I'm fine, and I had a great run this morning. Broken foot & all.
