i think i hit something...

Pretty sure...no actually i am not sure if I tore through my scar tissue today. It definitely feels like it did when i ripped the acl so who really knows. It hurts to walk though so thats kinda of a new development in the ongoing sage of what is my injury. Working on personal statements for grad school...EKKK thats kinda crazy. GRE is up next on my list of things to do which is something that i am not looking forward to Ill take the ACL injury over the GRE any time.

A toast to the dangerous side of things...

So i secretly have this fetish with high heels. I love them! I mean I am not by any stretch of the imagination a girly girl. Trust me I am not, my injury proves so. Also a million other people would have to agree with the statement of me not being a girly girl. So after about 5 weeks post surgery I decided to try something, I wore high heels today to church. Not that bad, only 2.5 inches so for those out there who know me, no i did not aim for the 4 inch ones that I typically wear. It was nice to wear something other than flip flops or vans or jordans. So now as i sit in my kitchen drinking some water, I toast to my fast recovery and the eventual wearing of 4 inch heels. Here's looking at you kid.

PT...

So physical therapy went well. Pushing through the pain to get the knee to bend. I was given the ok to start working out on my own in a gym if i wanted. Good times, no running yet which is pretty depressing. Heading to idaho for the weekend to see my sister which will be nice. Dodgers play tonight, how awesome is that. GO DODGERS!

105 degrees and counting...

So my good knee can bend 135, my bad one currently bends at 105. Close to 5 weeks and i am close to being slightly normal again. So exciting. Crutch free and 105 degrees its awesome. Weekend was good. Had the best japanese steak ever. It was so soft and memorable... if your curious the place is called kyoto. Loved it! Also Halloween is quickly on its way and I am excited. Last year i passed for a 12 year old, i think i can officially qualify as a 13 year old. I am planning this awesome work party that is going to be one of the best things people attend in their life time...jealous yet???Also one of my favorite Halloween things to do besides tricking people about how old I am is watching that one Boys Meets world Episode- "Welcome to John Adams High this is where your gonna die, death is on the menu tonight." Best believe I am going trick or treating. Also shout out to the Dodgers the only LA team and the Angels (who are in orange county but are secretly jealous cause they aren't from LA).

Pushing 90

So i am at about 85 degrees, that how far back my knee will bend. I have improved by 25 degrees which is rather exciting. My leg is getting pretty strong, I mainly use the crutches to maintain balance. For the most part I am using my left leg to move around. I can finally drive again. My parents decided it was best to drive out an automatic for my use, I eventually need to drive to places. Its pretty sweet. I forget how much I love driving. Besides loving driving, I love the fact that the Dodgers are playing tonight in game one of the NLDS series, also 30 for 30 is on ESPN. I saw a preview for it and it look fantastic. First part was last night hope to catch some of it tonight while watching the Dodger game and the Yankees game. Also basketball season is starting soon, shout out Lakers! I am actually heading to a game this holiday season which I am stoked about. If only it had been the christmas day game. Oh well maybe next year for now 3 days before christmas game will have to do.

Dances with wolves

Ok so you know the opening scene in Dances with Wolves where kevin costner puts his boot on put its super painful because well he messed his foot up and the doctors were thinking about chopping it off but instead he takes off so they don't. Well that's what physical therapy feels like it hurts so bad but you know you gotta do it. Well as it turns out I am almost half way through therapy i have another week on crutches...supposedly we will have to see about that.
The only exciting thing for me today mainly was that I was able to download one of my favorite songs...
