So I managed to sprain my ankle as I exited my inlaws' house.

We'd just come back from a tour of the fire station, since my brother-in-law is a firefighter. I was backing down the front porch steps for some reason. I reached the bottom, but forgot that there's about 2 inches of cement that sticks out of the ground beyond the bottom step. So I trip on that and as I'm staggering backwards, I put my foot in the exact wrong little hollow in the ground and there goes my ankle.

Felt the tendon do the snap thing, felt the usual burny sprain-pain, sat in utter embarrassment as my brother-in-law wrapped my ankle and iced it with a bag of frozen spinach. The kids stood over me with umbrellas. I was grateful for the help, but what a humiliating way to end a visit.
