My Left Foot

Ok..

Now my foot is starting to ache a little bit. It's not painful. Just a little achy and sore feeling.

Yesterday the doctor examined it, and kept feeling around that area, trying to see if it hurt me. I had this feeling he kept expecting me to shriek out in pain. I told him it was tender, but that I wouldn't really call it 'pain'. He was astonished. According to him, I should be in a great deal of pain after having suffered a fracture. I told him I have a high pain threshold, but he still insisted that I should be in pain. He said he was 'scratching his head' over it. He was still scratching his head as I rode my bike away from his office.

I suppose the reason it is feeling a bit achy today could be the fact that I rode my bike to the gym this morning at six, worked out, rode my bike back home, showered, and rode my bike to work (and home again after). All after riding my bike yesterday from 16th and State to Emerald and Curtis, up to Overland to Dorian, and all the way back home to the other side of 27th street.

Maybe I need to take a breather and give my poor foot a time out...nah! It's fine. A foot ache isn't anything a couple of advil won't take care of!!

I'd like to take this opportunity to make it clear that I had better never hear anyone call me weak ever again! Until you can walk, rollerblade, lift weights, work out on the stairmaster, and ride your bike, all with a broken foot, you have no room to be calling ME weak. Heh, heh, heh!!

I am one tough little cookie!
