My ring and little finger are all sorts of crazy colors and still a bit swollen. To the doctor’s surprise nothing was broken from what she could see on the X-ray. She is going to have the radiologist look at it tomorrow to be sure though. Meanwhile she put my two fingers in a splint, and said it will just take some time. I don’t have time!! I have so much work to do plus grading and writing plans, and of course I injured the hand I write with. I just feel so stupid and embarrassed that I got hurt from walking on a sidewalk.
