The Whine thread.

I currently look like I was run over by a bus...

Fell two saturdays ago (the day after the con!) in the cadaver lab and got a lovely hematoma (aka bruise) on my left thigh, about 4 in x 5 in, totally black and purple. I fell so hard that if I hadn't "turned in the air like a cat", as my co-worker described it (thanks to skating!), I would have probably taken all one hundred mmmphmmmphmmmph pounds of me right onto my hip bone or tailbone, breaking something.

Yesterday, took a tap and jazz class... bruised the ball of my left foot so that it hurts to bear weight... so I'm limping slightly when I walk.

Today, took a contemporary and hip-hop class. Aggravated the bruise on my foot, totally beat up my knees so that there are multiple brusies and scrapes on them, and bruised the tops of my feet right over my arches.

I can now make my good hip pop on demand (a fun party trick, thanks to a tight tendon from all of the dance abuse today).

Can't bend the big toe on my left foot completely without ache... from the bruising around the base, it looks like it might be sprained.

Add that to the slice on my leg from pulling out of a spin wrong in skating and I look like a total mess.

Oh you poor thing

Once I broke like my big toe nail (like completely) dancing on pointe too much. And then the next day I had PE and I failed because I couldn't run and do all that PE stuff because my foot was all swollen and stuff and I could barely stand

Ouch!

We have all had those days....especially us dancers!



I broke my big toe during the points in the sword dance.

That frelling hurt like hell.

Been there with the broken toenail from pointe... so not fun at first, but a great thing to show off in the summer, esp when the toenail falls off. Nothing like having people do a double-take when they see your toes.

And OOOOOWWWW to the broken toe, T'Sara! You're right about us dancers. We also don't know how to stop, either (I wonder if you danced on that broken toe? )

Contemporary was so awesome that I just couldn't stop today (this was the first time in all the years I've danced that I've actually connected to the song and the choreography so much that I was emotionally as well as physically exhausted), so I just pushed through the pain until I couldn't feel it anymore.

Which is why I'm now sitting here with Hello Kitty's face on my toe joint, which is now purple and swollen (the joint, not hello kitty Hello Kitty Ice Pack! So cute!)

let's see...I'm still sunbruned, my shoulders feel like leather and look like some kind of weird disease..but that's just because they're red and splotchy.

A nice cool bath will help with the sun burn....also Aloe.

No one but Elessar and a select few from Cherry hill will get this but.....

You have been saving water for the fishes?

[blacknblue]

My nose itches.

[TSara]

My nose itches.

LOL that was random.

Erm do you have allergies?

[blacknblue]

No. I just felt left out of the ailment listing, and that was the worst I could come up with at the moment.

I ...actually don't get it...do I forget something? I'll probably slap my forehead and be like "OH YEAH!" when you explain it though...

I got tired of using aloe...when i was using it like 3 times a day, I was all bubbled up and blistering, and it hurt like hell. I'm just putting moisterizing lotion on it a few times a day now, which stings like hell, but seems logical. iuhno.

It's not as funny when I have to explain it.

But here goes.

Bathroom floor soaked....me giving you a hard time.

Ring any bells?

[TPoptarts]

Then what do you take daily meds for??

[evcake]

Lots of people take daily meds. I take 5.

[TPoptarts]

Well but at least then he'd have some ailments he needs the meds for it's only logical
