Happy new year! I can't do the month/sentence meme since I only started LJing again in May of this year.
Well, I hope the rest of the year is better than how this one's started out, as I'm sitting here with a pretty badly sprained ankle. Yeah. It happened right after we saw The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. I walked off the curb, but I guess I didn't realize there was a curb there, and my foot/ankle gave out. I heard a snapping sound, but don't believe anything was broken ... it was just agonizingly painful the first two days. It's actually feeling a lot better today (though I still can't put a lot of pressure on it), which is good because we're still supposed to go to Universal Studios, which would so not be possible if I were to have to painfully limp everywhere. My right foot (the injured party) was so swollen the second day that when I lined my heels up, it was like an inch longer than my left foot, and looked soooo puffy. Today they are about equal size, so yay. Luckily (or unluckily, depending on your point of view), Jade has a history of sprained ankles so she knew exactly what kind of Ace bandage to buy and showed me how to put it on, and also lent me her adjustable crutches so I could stay off the foot (although the crutches hurt my hands so much that I actually prefer limping).
As predicted there has been a lot of eating. I have a bunch of blurry photos, because restaurants have terrible lighting for taking food pictures (unless it's lunchtime and there's natural light). We've also gone to Knott's Berry Farm, and seen Valkyrie and Yes Man in addition to the aforementioned TCCoBB. We've also played some dorky, fun board games (Cranium = win).
Haven't seen as much of Jade as I might like, because her poor doggie is going through some health issues. :-( However have seen more of Robbie, which is fab. Tonight we're thinking of going to Wood Ranch, which has the best macaroni and cheese EVER. It is so, so rich and cheesy. It's delicious. Sadly we'll probably end up ordering $30 steaks just to get that as a side dish. But it is new year's, so hey! Why not.
I have pictures I'm too lazy to upload right now, but once I'm home and once again have nothing to entertain me I'm sure that will get done right away. Oh, I hope the cold there hasn't frozen my car or computer so much that they stop working, lol. It's been around 70 here every day and it's great.
