Sprainkle

Pretty cool word, huh? Sprain + Ankle=Sprainkle--The unfortunate state of my poor foot.

While dashing around my elder sister at last night's modern dance class, my right foot slipped, and suddenly crunched sideways in a rather painful manner. After limping through the last five minutes of class, Dad discovered that it was sprained, swathing the entire area in yard upon yard of downy gauze and simultaneously christening it. While at CVS (does that need a little copyright symbol?) getting our passport photos taken--a fiasco!--we picked up a neat little elastic fabric foot thing, now snugly encasing The Foot. Aside from being a teeny bit swollen, my ankle is scarcely uncomfortable--the sheer novelty is still intriguing. :-) I wonder, can I scribble on my "cast?"
