So none of my weekend plans came to fruition in the end. Friday night, we had a few drinks at the Caroline, and then headed back to Phil's for a movie (Pathology) and some food. By about 10.30 we were in the mood to go out, so off we went to the Engine Rooms for Deviant, as it's a very short walk from his studio. Had a good dance and generally enjoyed eachother's company :) We had a glorious lie-in on Saturday morning and breakfast in bed. Next on the list was a bit of quick shopping to get the ingredients for Lyndsey's cakes, and that's when the horror struck.
I was casually wandering through the hallway in Phil's studio, going into the bathroom to have a shower when I stepped in a puddle of water forming below his freshly washed Gi and and *woooosh scream crash*, I slipped, fell and smashed my toe into the doorframe, hit my head on the wall and banged my left buttock against the laminate flooring with some force.
I burst into tears :(
It was pretty horrid, but Phil picked me up and got me into his room. Once I'd calmed down, we ascertained from the swelling that it was either broken or badly sprained. We raided the first aid box and grabbed all the gauze, bandages and such that we could find and set about sorting it out. When you damage a toe, the best thing to do is to strap it to the one next to it to stop it from bending. I had to trim the nail which had fractured and then wrapped it up in lots of bandage, made sure it was elevated and Phil ran out to get some supplies and ice.
In the end, we had quite a nice weekend, but not the one I was expecting. Had to forgo the party as I couldn't walk, so spent the weekend propped up in Phil's bed, missing my kittehs, dosed up on painkillers and watching many movies. We managed to get through Shooting Fish (brilliant), The Mist (unexpectedly good but horrid ending), Saw 4 and Over Her Dead Body (which was pants), along with many episodes of Futurama and the X-Files, so it was pretty good in the end.
My mobile phone has decided to stop sending text messages. It's really shit and it's really pissing me off. Stupid phone. I shall have to see if I can get it fixed!
