1. Among the supposedly cool, convenient things your phone can do, which have you so far refused to try? Hmm..I never really use the calculator on it..
2. Among the great things your phone can do, which did you unexpectedly really like? It's cool it keeps texts messages from one person all together..when I had a flip phone, they were out of order and not really organized
3. Which of the other new electronic gadgets or services have you so far been resistant to trying or reluctant to try? Ebooks (I love the whole experience of turning the pages and smelling it LOL), iPads (a laptop is easier, for the most part), etc
4. How has some of the new technology changed the way you think about life, the universe, or everything? I like how easy it is to talk/text people, or even video chat if they're far away! I like sharing pics and stuff with my friends/family online, and I like to see what they share too
5. What percentage of the time is your phone within ten feet of you? I don't usually have it on me at work, but the rest of the time it's usually nearby

On Tuesday, walking home from work, I stepped up on the sidewalk and slipped on the ice and fell, HARD on my left side (of course there was a car about to pull out, ugh. At least they asked if I was ok by giving me a thumbs up, which I returned). It was kinda difficult getting back up, and my left side was definitely hurting.."I'll be sore tomorrow!," I thought. My left ankle kept twinging, and had to walk slower because it was painful. I was hoping sitting and resting at home would help, but no, it was definitely still sore. When I took my sock off, I saw that my ankle was swollen. I should have put ice on it, but I was still in denial I'd really hurt it LOL. The next day it was even more painful, so mom took me to the clinic. They did x-rays and found no break or fracture, so I just sprained it. The doctor told me to take the rest of the week off from work to let it heal (I'm on my feet a LOT at work). They gave me one of those giant boot things to keep my ankle protected, though it didn't help with the pain. I've been icing it, taking painkillers, etc, but it doesn't seem to have made a lot of difference..it's still pretty painful. I feel super old limping around so slowly haha. I hope it's a lot better by Monday, so I don't have to walk so slowly and will be able to do *something* at work, but I guess my body will tell me when it's ready. I'll have to glare at that ice patch next time I see it LOL. Not fun!

I can't believe I've had Curti over a week now! He's getting kinda chunky haha, but I didn't like how skinny he was before. His energy can be exhausting, but his cuteness and love makes up for it haha
