I have got to the most uncoordinated person on this planet.  I don’t know of anyone else that can just fall while walking like I do.  I haven’t done it in a while which is a miracle for me.  Some would say “so don’t wear such high shoes” I don’t wear heels and I can lose my footing walking in sneakers, I did while walking home from the store one day and luckily didn’t break any of the eggs I had.  This morning I’m walking through the mall to the food court to get breakfast, it was before 9 so nothing was open yet and there really wasn’t anybody in there (thank god).  I’m wearing my clogs that are kinda like platform type shoes but I’ve had them for 4 years so it’s not like I’m not adept (right word?) at walking in them.  They are my most comfortable pair of shoes to walk in.  I rounding a corner by the escalator when my left ankle just turns or does something and down I go.  Land hard on my right knee (my knees are messed up to begin with from jumping and falling out of trees etc as a kid).  My face almost kisses the floor too.  These 2 guys just happened to see me and yell “hey, you alright” I say and yes as I’m getting up.  They notice my shoes as I get on the elevator and proceed to yell to me “it’s them heels, gotta watch them heels, hear me it’s them heels” to shut them up I say yes back thinking the whole time “I’ve worn this for 4 years and this has never happened so shut the **** up”  My right knee didn’t bruse as bad as I thought it would but my left foot/ankle/lower shin/lower calf all are very uncomfortable now and it’s sort of hard to put all of my weight (if  I weighed less it might not be so hard) on it so all day at work I’ve kept my shoes off and have only put them on to go down the hallway outside of the office to go to the bathroom.  I don’t think it’s swollen just uncomfortable and throbbing a little bit.  Not doing any cardio today and I was so looking forward to doing a half hour of spinning.  Oh well, next Wednesday for spinning.  Tomorrow’s gonna stink, there’s a heavy snow warning from 7 am till 7 pm so that means I have to get up earlier so we can leave earlier if it’s snowing and tonite we won’t be home till after midnight cuz it’s a bowling nite (see I dislike Thursdays blog).  I’ve complained enough.  Have to go try to walk a little bit, can’t sit here no more.
