So all is going well yesterday. I vacated my house due to crazy goings on in the neighbourhood. Hmmm, should post about that at some point as well I suppose. Oh well, I digress.
Anyway, my parents come up from Virginia to visit and spoil my boys because the two just aren’t rotten enough *GRINS*!
So we go to grab a bite to eat for supper and Sir Megabyte thinks we should take one car. Well ok… techinically we shouldn’t as there is one to few seatbelts but whatever. But he’s left his hard hat in the car and I figure I should take it out so 1. my dad has leg room and 2. so Sir Megabyte can have it in his car should he need it.
So i grab it and go and put it on his car and then I’m gonna go inside to get my purse. Well I get up to the steps in my garage that lead into my house and realize that the door is locked. So I try to spin around and step down the steps to leave but because that step is narrow, well needless to say I crash and burn on my attempt. Wrenched my ankle something fierce.
It is bruised but it didn’t swell up too bad considering that I twisted it bad. So we pulled out the crutches and got me a bandage. I was in pain all night long. Today it doesn’t really hurt unless i try to move it too much or stand on it. Thank goodness for those crutches!
I do have a good bit of mobility back, maybe half? So hopefully that is a sign that it will heal quickly.
Never fear, my men are taking good care of me. The boys continually come over to kiss me and pat my hand and reassure me I’ll be better soon. And Sir Megabyte is waiting on me hand and foot and is even carrying me up and down the stairs so I can sleep in my nice comfy bed instead of being trapped on the mostly comfy sofa.
I feel a right bit daft for hurting myself so badly, but ahh well. It will give me time to catch up more on journals! HEHE However I don’t like being trapped at home.

How about Lurch?
That is what my lovely friends called me the last time I was on crutches. *I love my friends*
Good to hear you have more mobility today, and I am glad you have people there to take care of you. Enjoy your Buffys! And tell your Mom that we all think she is super cool. 🙂
Heal quick Ozma!!

hehe… lurch… hehehe I’m not very good on the crutches. Lurch is about what I look like trying to get around.
I sure hope that I can get off the crutches soon. They are hard for me to manuever on and cause me pain. My right knee is protesting all the extra strain!
I haven’t started Buffy yet. I’m thinking I need Angel for when it comes to the cross over episodes. But now I can’t go buy it. 😦 Rats. So I suppose this week I’ll just be watching Buffy… hehe all day as I lay on the couch unable to do anything else!
BTW My mom is thankful for being “cool”. Especially “Super Cool”. 🙂 She smiled when I told her.

I have rather mobile ankles and feet due to dance. I can do all sorts of weird things. But with the way I fell I don’t think there was any saving my ankle. I’m surprised I got off as easy as I did frankly! I’m just glad that it doesn’t appear to be broken or anything worse. I’d rather be a crip for a week or so than be stuck in a cast the rest of the summer! UGH!
Hope you are having a good weekend! 🙂

Spike is more than OK! He rocks! He’s right up there in coolness and bad boy-ness with Cole and Snape. 🙂

I’ve been hearing about stonecutters.
ITA with TBQ – at least Angel is coming back and Spike will help boost ratings. Is good, yes? Why would Spike take spotlight away from Angel? It will add to the good. Angel/Spike. It’s good.
And on another side of it, I’d hate to see a negative campaign against Angel/Angelus from btvs side of it.
I don’t know, I like the idea of two powerful characters.

Yes, Alan Rickman does the Professor purrfect justice.
between us, I also picture him somewhat like the Sherrif/Alan in, Robin Hood Prince of Thieves;) The Sherrif was the best thing about the movie.

ha. as I was yours. 🙂
I have been a very good girl and laughing on the sidelines at both sides (well kinda, I am still rather ticked by the one characterization I read of all Spike fans being raving insane impossible loonies, but that is another rant for my own journal, if I ever become so inclined.).
Bravo TBQ! I absolutely agree. AtS it is rumored would not be back this year if not for Spike, so, yay! AtS and Angel fans get another year of the the series. Spike fans get more Spike. If the Spike fans move over to watch Angel, and ratings improve, then maybe there will be more Angel! gasp. how horrid.
I am obviously a JM fan, and think he is incredible, but I must add that part of his rep is that he is a very generous actor. I don’t imagine the writers writing the show Spikecentric, and I don’t imagine JM wresting the spotlight away. It is all good.
Thank you very much. That sounds rather ranty, but that is not how I am really feeling. Eh. Yay Spike, Yay Angel, Yay Wes!! lol

I saw that Alan Rickman without his makeup… they really did a number on him for both Snape and Sherrif.
BTW I hated Prince of Thieves. The only good part of that movie is KC in the waterfall shower and I heard that was a double… but just the thought of KC in a waterfall shower… hehe
I haven’t seen the movie since the one time i saw it at the theatre so I have no comment on Sherrif. I frankly don’t remember him. Just remember KC bastardizing the frelling Robin Hood story.

And frankly, I think Angel is a far superior show than Buffy ever was. I mean, BtVS is fun yes… and I own all four seasons on DVD and all… but the two shows are different and if you want to talk about quality and well lack of cheesiness… Angel is the show for you. You want something snarky? Go for Fluffy the Vampire-Layer. 😉 So why on earth would they cancel Angel? At least the lead of Angel kicks some serious butt while being hot and a good actor. SMG… well… needless to say Buffy was not about Buffy. It was about Willow and Xander and Oz and Giles, etc. That show really should have been renamed The Scooby Gang! LOL
I hate it when the networks cancel good shows. GRRR. I hope that Angel does well this year. They need to keep it. Especially need to keep yummy Spike. Hey, if they manage to clean up Wes some so he stops looking icky and scruffy then they’ll have FOUR hot guys!!! (Sorry, I also thing Gun is very handsome! Thinking of starting a fan club for him. He deserves it! And sorry, Lorne is well… I can’t get past the green skin with the suit colourings he chooses. Icky. I might not mind the green skin… but combined with the suit–ouch!)

Well normally I like KC. But I just hate that movie. They did so many blatantly WRONG things. Everything was just annoying to me. At the time it came out I hung out with a LOT of mideaval reinactors and we were all so disgusted with the movie. ICK ICK ICK.
I don’t think I could bear to watch it without crying at all the idiotic things they did. Like a few things here or there I could deal with. But with this it was like every two seconds they did something dreadfully anachronistic! Or just blatanly stupid like ripping the fletchings off the arrows. HELLO??!!!!

*SNORT* Green bitch? That’s too funny. I don’t know, I don’t mind Lorne so much except that he wears really ugly clothes and I’m sorry but he just can’t sing! I don’t know if the actor is doing that on purpose or if he just can’t sing. If he’s doing it on purpose, kudos to him for being able to do that. It takes a lot of talent to try to sing badly while making it appear you think you are singing well.
