[life] personal growth

...of the disturbing kind.

I have this weird lump/bump on the bottom on my right second toe. It hurts occasionally, when I put pressure on it, and recently has been making my toe feel numb. Not Good. And yesterday I crashed my toes into the handrail we have lying in our living room because we are having our hallway painted and now, the morning after, it is throbbing like a mofo. I have taken Tylenol. I don't know if I'll be able to go to yoga, which makes me a bit sad. Maybe I will just do restful, non-toe related yoga postures here at home, and find my inner peace that way.

And so, anyway, this growth. I don't really think that it's omigodcancer!, but the idea is looming over me like a fell beast, to use a screamingly geekish metaphor. It's more likely some kind of joint swelling or fibrous something or other. None the less, I'm getting it checked out on Monday, because sometimes things don't get better when you ignore them, and I am not stupid. Clumsy, certainly. Occasionally alarmist. But not stupid.
