Well, it's not a sprained ankle after all. I have, in fact, a broken (in two places) leg that I've been toting around on crutches for a week. It was the excruciating, and continuing, pain that made me suspect that something more was going on. Yesterday I got the soft cast and today I get the hard cast.

Is there ever a convenient time to have a broken leg? If there is, this isn't one of those times.
