Quick update, because after spending all day running around (um...figuratively), I'm dead exhausted and my knee hurts like hell.

Doctor says: no apparent ligament damage. There may be damage to some of the small muscle groups and joint cushions, but he can't tell until the swelling goes down. He gave me crutches and a prescription for codeine. I'm to report in two to three weeks to the Sports Clinic at the University of Ottawa for further checking and possibly physiotherapy, depending on how it goes between now and then.

So. There's that.

I'm going to go lie down on the couch now. Thank you to everyone for the sympathy and get well soons and the like.

So, like, the thing about crutches, right, is that they're designed so that the non-injured muscles take the strain off the injured ones. But I fell skiing. I don't have non-injured muscles.

I am totally taking a cab to school tomorrow. It can pick me up at my front door and drop me off at the front door of the university.
