I went out to the barn today. Out to Cassie's barn, which isn't the place I keep Juliet. Anyways, Cassie lets me work at the barn in exchange for lessons. Dakota and I were free lunging one of Cassie's horses (free lunging=making the horse run around in the ring without any equipment on, for those of you who don't know), and I tripped over a jump. Now, I was running around barefoot like the smart child I am and my freakishly long second toe took the blow.
In short, I broke my toe.
Well, my dad says it's sprained, but I say it is broken because MY TOE DOES NOT NORMALLY POINT THAT WAY.
And I can't bend it. I mean, you never realize how used you are to everything working until you tell your toe to move and it won't. As a result, it feels like my toe needs to pop, and I keep trying but it hurtssss. Mleh.
Also, I won an essay contest. We read Anthem by Ayn Rand in English last year and had to send in an essay. Apparently, I was a semi-finalist and won $50. Huh.

I like Anthem. We read it last year too and we never got to write an essay about it. Thought during one of our group decussions our teacher told another teacher that we were having an orgy. >.<
ReplyDeleteSorry about your toe!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on winning! I didn't. Which isn't surprising because I'm terrible at writing essays. And well, other stuff. xD
OOOH. USE YOUR MONEY TO BUY A NERDY T-SHIRT. BATMAN?
You poor thing!!! I hope you toe gets better soon, I can't imagine how awful that is as I am fortunate to have never broken a bone.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the essay Lani!! Like Miss Zee, I was a pitiful essay writer, so I didn't win, but oh well. I can't wait to see you tomorrow!!
