Sprained ankles, fractures, big boots, and a plane ticket to Cape Town

Okay, so Wednesday while I was walking Scout, I twisted my ankle (don't ask how--it's humiliating). And Mark made me call the doctor, who made me have an x-ray, and not only do I have an ugly sprain, but I chipped a bone in my foot, and now I have this huge heavy boot thing and I can't do anything for the next 48 hours except lie on my back and keep my foot elevated.Arrrgggghhhh. If I am compliant, though, I will still be able to go to South Africa and probably not even have to wear the boot, just a good ankle brace. This sucks.
