apparently, I'm a dumbass

When I was fetching laundry from the basement on Sunday night, I fell pretty hard on the lovely concrete floor. I banged my right ankle in the process and felt pretty dumb.
I had some ice on it Monday night because it was pretty tender and a little swollen compared to my left ankle. I thawed a bag of frozen corn on it and things seemed to be okay. I spent most of Tuesday and all day yesterday in a painkiller haze because of a headache that wouldn't go away.
And then last night, I danced for the first time since falling. I finished writing out the choreography for Thriller and then started running through every choreography I could remember. It was a lot of fun and reminded me that I need to practice more.
When I'm walking around today, one of the tendons or something in my ankle feels the same as my jaw sometimes does - a little popping, something rolling where it shouldn't be, and a general ache. It doesn't help that the shoes I'm wearing are shaped so that they're rubbing on the spot that's currently sore. Apparently, I've gotten used to not having to worry about hurt or anything. I feel kind of dumb, but I also want it to get stronger and healed. Bleah.
