Remember that episode of Sex & The City where Samantha was sick and pulled the curtains off the windows while lamenting the benefits of having a man in the house. Well, let me tell ya - this gal feels her pain right now.

I did the dumbest thing yesterday. I still hadn’t hung up the artwork in the apartment and decided to pick up some picture hangers and a hammer and go to town. Well, the stepladder and I - we had a falling out, with me being the one doing the falling. This gal fell right into the bedpost and somehow twisted her left calf muscle to where I have renamed myself “Igette” and had to drag my left foot behind me around the house last evening, careful to not put any weight on it or, if I was hopping, I was very careful to watch where I was going. Of course Shadow thought it was playtime and repeatedly tried to trip me, headbutt my bad leg, etc. etc. etc.

Today, however, I couldn’t bear the pain in flats and while deciding whether or not to take a sick day, I saw my lovely teal platforms, tried them on and while it was painful, I could walk in it. My friend, Ms. M. said it was because flats make the muscles stretch, heels don’t make it stretch. As I always say - Give me heels or Give Me Death !!!

What lesson have I learned - let my male friends do all the hanging stuff. I, however, will be getting a taller step ladder, try not to multitask as much and remember that Rome was not built in a day (and my apartment won’t be decorated in a day either)…
