Back in August I slipped over and sprained my left ankle rather badly.  Last week, tired of the constant swelling and limited movement, I took it to a physio.  He gave me a bunch of exercises, but warned that there was more serious damage to my right ankle, probably dating back to the time I sprained it in 2007 (and 2006 ... and 2005), leaving it more prone to injury and long-term damage.

Yesterday, I slipped over and sprained ... my right ankle.

Have to say, the highlight was nearly fainting on the footpath of Sydney Road.  I've never almost fainted before.  I don't recommend it.  Then it turned out my usual doctor's surgery was closed, because it was a public holiday.  And now I'm basically confined to my bed, since I can't even limp yet -- more of a shuffle -- and putting anything heavier than fabric -- a cushion, say -- on the outer side is agonising. 

I am spending my time reading classic Avatar fic "Another Brother".  It's not bad, but I have to say I'm up to chapter 17 of 25 (so far) and I'm not hugely impressed -- a lot of Katara's moments of awesome just don't happen, girls fall for Zuko instead of Sokka, and the punctuation is really terrible.  Sorry, "The punctuation is really terrible."  Liz said.  (Also, apostrophe's for plural's, who's for whose and vice versa, and "borders" and "boarders" are different words.)
