At least I'm not up for a Darwin Award?

So, the other day I did something really, really strange to my left ankle. What I did, exactly, I have no clue. The inside of the ankle is tender to the touch - so tender that I nearly screamed the first time I accidentally pressed down on it; however, I can move it around with no discomfort, and I can walk on it without noticing anything, and the outside of the ankle is fine and dandy. It's gotten less tender this week, and it's just one of those weird things I do to myself.
Of course, now that my ankle is better, I had to go and do something else. After the kiddo's t-ball game tonight, I was putting my chair in the back of the truck. I turned sharply and my left knee (note this is the same leg in which I hurt my ankle) whacked the trailer hitch hard enough that I heard the steel go "Clunk!" Tonight I can feel a very small amount of discomfort if I move the knee a certain way and there's a tiny lump at the top of the knee that's all red and angry looking. By tomorrow I'm sure I'll be sporting a maginificent bruise and I'll have to avoid letting anything brush against my knee.
It shouldn't come as a surprise that I've done this before (right down to the tiny bump) and expect that I'll be right as rain by the weekend. I also assume I'll have a new and even more interesting injury by then as well.
*sigh*
At least my headache is responding to the Excedrin I took. Woo.
