well that's just swell! (no pun intended).

So, today was awesome. I was actually motivated to DO WORK and stuff today, and everything was going great! But then, I got to volleyball. And I was 2 hours late, mind you, because of NHS induction. So I get there, and woohoo, everything was going fine. I was a bit groggy at first because I've been tired, but then I woke up and was having fun. So then, we were doing this drill where we passed and then went up to hit. So I passed the ball, and I was taking my approach but the set was kinda tight to the net, so I decided to go in and tip. So I went in and jumped up and tipped the ball, and it was good! But, not so good. I came back down and totally landed wrong - my left ankle rolled and I fell right on it. OUCH! It hurt, man. I haven't been in such pain in a while, and I was just trying to not. make. any. noise. Coach Christiansen came over and helped me up and I had to use him as a crutch to get to the ice room where I got propped up and had some ice. Dude, it swelled up LIKE MAJOR. It was almost the size of a baseball, and that was WITH my shoe on, keeping some compression on it. I'm currently on my couch downstairs with my foot propped up and ice wrapped around it. And I'm supposed to sleep here. It's not the most comfortable thing for my ankle. My dad said I might have to use crutches tomorrow, cuz he doesn't think I'll be able to walk on it. Great. Just what I need. But dang, just take a look at my beautifully swollen ankle.
