Ok so sometime yesterday on new years i managed to break my foot. it all started when i decided to run, literally run, down to my room to grab something that i can't even remember.

i was running down the stairs and about 3 or 4 steps to the bottom slipped, like an idiot, and landed on the side of my foot. i had heard a very loud popping noise as i landed and figured it wasn't good.

i decided to go into the e.r. after i had a golfball size bumb comming out of my foot. i had gotten some x-rays and later found out i broke my 5th meditarcel, the long pinkie toe bone, in my left foot.

they told me i won't be able to snowboard for at least 6 weeks, and most likely wont be able to drive either since it's my clutching foot. FML

yeah, i guess. the ironic part of it all is that about an hour before this happened i had gotten new snowboard boots for an early bday present. i guess i atleast will be going out to eat on the 4th.

I've got a few friends that have broken the 5th metatorsil. It is NOT fun. You will probably permanently have a screw or some piece of metal in your foot. It will be almost a year before you will feel at 100% running and such. I've rolled my ankle and heard it pop a few times. Ankles are tough, and slow to recover. They usually aren't the same afterwards. If you're young, you should be fine though.
