Today was lovely, except for the part where I got hurt.

Woke up early and watched more episodes of Lost until Jeff called. We agreed to meet for lunch and a jaunt around Greenlake. Been desperately trying to get back into shape and figured it would be criminal to waste a day as pretty as this one.

So Jeff came over, we hung out, we went to lunch at a cute little taco stand. We stopped back at my place when I realized that walking outdoors meant I was going to be freezing, so I hurled on lots of extra layers.

Off to Greenlake. It was a beautiful crisp day and I attempted some really demented shots with my new camera (most of the bottom of Jeff's head and the top of my own, they're fabulous and if I can ever get them off the camera and onto the computer I will share them). Towards the end, I managed a remarkably graceful tumble, face first onto the dirt path. I was lucky that my jeans saved me from all but a bit of cheese-grated calf and a minor scrape on my palm. But I did manage to twist my ankle instead of just fall like a klutz. So I sat there for a few minutes trying to look brave as Jeff very kindly took care of me. Eventually I got up and hobbled to a bench. When my leg stopped actively shaking, I said I was fine and we walked on. It hurt, but it wasn't unbearable and I agreed with Jeff's assessment that walking would help keep it from stiffening up.

We finished our walk and got some ice cream and walked back to Jeff's truck. Drove home and hung out some more and sadly, Jeff eventually had to leave. He is so adorable.

My ankle really does hurt though and I'm annoyed with it. I'm a bit apprehensive about driving on it (I love my manual car except in hideous traffic and when I hurt my left leg) tomorrow. I have a lot of errands planned for tomorrow and I'm hoping ice, ibuprofen and determination will make it okay by tomorrow.

Sarah's supposed to come over tonight for blended goodness and hanging out. Tomorrow I will hopefully: get my haircut, pick out new frames for my glasses and also go to Bellevue for this treatment thing that I get.

...and also go to Bellevue for this treatment thing that I get.

In New York City that would take on an entirely new meaning.

Well, I assume it'd be a new meaning, anyway.

Hah! Yesh. Happily it is not the same meaning out here.
