Update.

Okay...so the PT at Athletico, bless her lil' heart, was clearly new, clearly clueless and clearly not confident with examining me. But I can empathize with her...I can't imagine being in patient care and being that nervous my first few days on the job.

BUT ANYWAY...long story short...

They're not quite sure what's going on with my foot. Could be a hairline fracture. Could be a sprain. Could be aliens invading my feet for all they know.

Hopefully Dr. Vora will have a better diagnosis for me. They gave me a referral appointment scheduled for Tuesday afternoon. The 26th. My birthday (where I am turning 24 for the 2nd time...I'm in denial about being 25...).

He best not be giving me bad news on my birthday.

I will be SERIOUSLY PISSED.

Come on...what asshat would deliver super sucky news to a cute, sweet lil' girl on her second 24th birthday?!? I mean...really..........

So I'm going into this with positive vibes!

The good news is, is that it isn't hurting nearly as much as it has been. I'm no longer limping!! PROGRESS!! (finally.)

I'm going to try running this weekend. Stephanie from over at Onward Bound is coming to town and will be training with us...should be a good time :) I can't wait to have a pukin' pace pal...minus the puke (deal, Steph?). Today is her birthday, by the way...go and send her some love!

In other news...we ran into Jason and Leah the other night at the Container Store. Good times. :) It's fun running into random RBFers out and about. Nicole and I even ran into Whitney at the Fleet Feet during the Through the Wall session...

Hang in there!! Keep taking it easy and focus on the cross-training right now. I hope it's just a BAD sprain.

Ironweed is my least favorite movie. Know why? PUKING! Meryl Streep PUKING. Tons nastier than you PUKING. But it's still PUKING. And I am definitely planning my dream sequence tonight around you not PUKING! (and it's only 8:53 am, so you know I'm concerned for you when I'm planning this early).

hope the foot news is good. when I had a peculiar pain in my foot, I just ate a bag of mini candybars and didn't run for an entire week (this was last week) and then ran a marathon the next weekend and it was just fine. i'm pretty sure that would work for you too. :)

and HEY! there's nothing wrong with turning 25. or 26. or 27 for that matter...

I vote for the candybar cure.

In denial about turning 25?! It's just the beginning, baby!

P.S. I am sending good vibes your way for the foot. I won't even charge for them.

I turned 25 about a month ago and had a major freak-out... There's so much to accomplish before the big 3-0 milestone.

I hope there's nothing too serious wrong with your foot.

Good luck with the doc visit! I'm sure you will be fine!!! And 25 is AWESOME! We'll be in the same division now (for a year anyway)!!! Getting older is great fun, think of all the things you've accomplished already and all the great things you are doing. And if that doesn't work go and buy a Jeep. That's what we did when Brent freaked about his 25th. Lord knows what I'll have to buy him next year at 30!!!

No way are you allowed to have a stress fracture.

Good luck with the foot. Hopefully it feels better already.

Aliens! Now that is something I had not thought of. I'll be joining you on the 26th to find out WTF is wrong with my leg. It's not my birthday, but I hope at least one of us gets good news.
