No, that knot is not my ankle.
So Cory took me to the ER and after waiting 17 years, seeing two dudes going at it: "Stop throwing up by me." "I'm sick, MAN!" "You got a problem?" blah blah until the Dad of one guy and a security guard broke it up. And another guy moaning, crying about not being seen, then 5 seconds later asleep in his chair, repeat. I would bet $1000 he was high as a kite and looking for his next fix. Ah.....I love LA, but I digress.
Then the doctor wanted to prescribe me Vicoden (spelling?) but asked if there was any way I could be pregnant. No, we use condoms, blah blah. (TMI??) Long story short, he gave me some serious crap about how condoms are only 60% effective as birth control and if I really didn't want to get pregnant I should consider using other forms, and made me take a pregnancy test. Oh and by the way, after all that, I didn't even fill the prescription. Nice.
He looked at the xray, said it wasn't broken, gave me crutches, and sent me on my way.And now, three days later I'm hobbling around, being waited on by Anna, Steve, and Cory, finally got the swelling down some, and this is what it looks like:
Does the fact that the giant lump out the side of my foot hasn't gone away alarm anyone but me?? But I do have some pretty awesome bruising, so that's cool. Anyway, really lame reason to ruin Stacey's weekend, but whatayado??
Oh and btw, I'm pregnant.
Just kidding. :)

Holy Ouch! You must have been doing some sweet moves to screw your foot up like that. And that's super funny about the doctor lecturing you; too bad you're not pregnant, we could have a repeat of the combined one year birthday! Ha ha.
Ok first of all don't tease me like that! I thought with all this pregnance talk that is how you were going to announce that you actually were! So sorry about your ankle... that totally blows. Going through this totally lame wrist fracture took way more patience than I can handle so good luck with getting back to normal! I should probably come up there and take your girls to Disneyland and let you rest... coming... :)
Yes-TMI. And that foot is gross looking. But it's a cool story:)
Um....once upon a time I was a big fat dummy and went rock climbing minus the ropes in Provo canyon and fell and long story short my ankle looked like an elephant foot for about a week....and my ankles have never matched since! But anywho, I'm so so glad you survived!!! And I totally bet you still got it :)
My ankle hurts just looking at the pictures! UGH!! Why do our bodies have to start falling apart when we are only in our 20's? I swear, at this rate I'll be a vegetable in 3 more years! Good luck with the lump. Hopefully your body will realize that you are still a spring chick! ;)
Tiff, I read this out loud to Troy because I was freaking out by the size of your ankle! Anyways he wasn't really paying attention until I read the last part about you being pregnant and decided to leave out the "just kidding" part. Haha you should have seen his face! He stopped indexing turned to around and said "NO WAY!" I think he about had a heart attack hahaha too funny and it was great to have his full attention for a couple of seconds :) Well get better quick! We love you guys and we miss you tons!
I bet you are pregnant, you just want to see everyone's reaction! Haha
That being said, girl that ankle doesn't look like a real ankle. I'm concerned for you. Hopefully it doesn't still look that way!! Hopefully that heals soon so you can still run your half marathon this spring!
You can't say btw, I'm pregnant...j/k! That's not fair!! Wowzers that foot looks painful. Funny/not funny story! :)

Dude hahahahaha!!! Sorry had to laugh. That sucks! Believe me I can relate. But, that bump is weird, usually it swells at the joint so did you sprain your foot instead of your ankle? :) And speaking of weird bumps, I have one on the top of my foot from a soccer accident, thought it could be broken, didn't want to be a wuss so I didn't go to the dr, and the ugly bump is still there to this day, so hopefully yours goes away soon. :) If I were there, I'd come over and laugh I mean help you. ;)
