What's the business? Or would you rather not say?

EnpoTree · 11/11/2014 16:47

Ugh. Off to escape zombies.

EnpoTree · 11/11/2014 17:15

Fuck. Slipped. Fell. Ankle. Ow. Have called DP. Owwwww.

EnpoTree · 11/11/2014 17:19

Stupid fucking knee lifts and stupid fucking me and stupid fucking slippery kerbs and stupid fucking dark evenings

InfinitySeven · 11/11/2014 17:22

Oh no :( Are you home? Is it okay?

Ice is quite good, although bloody uncomfortable.

EnpoTree · 11/11/2014 17:24

Oh the shame. DP has pulled into Sainsbury's to buy a bag of peas and has left me in the car. In a disabled space Blush

EnpoTree · 11/11/2014 17:26

Luckily I am very close to home so will be doing the whole RICE + ibuprofen thing. I think it might just be a mild twist, but I have bad ankles (family trait) and it's often hard to tell until later how bad it's going to be.

Oh god people are walking past and I'm sure they must be clocking the lack of blue badge [shame]Sad

I won't say anything to DP though, as he would never normally dream of it.

Mitchy1nge · 11/11/2014 17:37

ouch @ all your poor wrists and ankles

orange horse NOT interested in doing any work, galloped round and round field winding all the boys up (she is in season) annoying but hilarious - clipping her tomorrow, hope she won't mind (she is v young but has been clipped before I think)

friend is going to see someone with aesthisioneuroblastoma who has gone mad, I dare not google, have fallen for that before but the curiosity is killing me

I'm lying with no knickers on (they were soaked... with puddle water!) on the sofa with a bag of Basics mixed veg on my ankle Hmm

Mitchy1nge · 11/11/2014 17:44

ow, hope it feels better soon

we ate our 'injury peas' recently, they are really old and have thawed out a thousand times on sore places and been refrozen, now I label them INJURY PEAS

Your poor friend's friend, Mitch Sad It sounds horrible, whatever it is.

Mitchy1nge · 11/11/2014 17:47

Mitchy1nge · 11/11/2014 17:48

Mmm, injury peas.

DP once bought half a dozen bags of el cheapo peas to keep a dessert cold on a long journey. They thawed, and he didnt want to waste them. He decider to cook them, so we ate pea soup for about a year.

EnpoTree · 11/11/2014 17:50

I love that second picture especially.

Mitchy1nge · 11/11/2014 17:56

AT LASt it is time to get ready for running club

have been wearing pretty much ALL my kit at once but am going to try wearing fewer layers and learn how to tolerate the cold (this is pure vanity but I looked fat in the race photos!)

patient is hallucinating poo falling from the ceiling, friend is rubbish dr and didn't know what aesthisioneuroblastoma (sp???) was either

I hate him though for the google image search results I could NOT stop looking at

EnpoTree · 11/11/2014 17:56

Thankfully DP came back from finding a parking space shortly after I posted and has obtained knickers for me. Not without some comments, of course.

He's been demoted to the camping chair as my foot is taking up his half of the sofa Blush

I think going mad is entirely understandable in your friend's patient's circumstances. Awful Sad

How did you smash your wrist, Infinity?

Oh of course. I'm a fuckwit and completely forgot! She said it right there upthread!

Mentalpsychiatrist · 11/11/2014 18:30

Evening all. Another day at the mad house done and dusted. Have just skim read but sympathies to all with injuries.

EnpoTree · 11/11/2014 18:33

Evening Mp, thanks for the sympathies Smile

DP has just said to me, "Anyway, you got the endorphins you were after."

WIBU to (lightheartedly) tell him to fuck off? Grin

YANBU

Mentalpsychiatrist · 11/11/2014 18:35

How's the ankle feeling now? Any better for the peas?

Mentalpsychiatrist · 11/11/2014 18:37

Just one more day of work and then New York Grin
