Ack, sprained ankles can be a pain. Last time it happened to me I was in the middle of town... couldn't put weight on my foot for half a second before it started hurting. Still, glad to hear that it hasn't dampened spirits too much, :D
@Lorfarius a good few weeks :( Even when you can put weight on it when walking, that's all you can do - walk. Trying to even jog puts a whole different weight on your foot and can bring the pain back in an instant. It was literally crippling and I felt pretty annoyed that I had to move about so carefully for so long. :(
Glad to hear you are ok mate. :) Hope you are better soon and you make it in time for your holiday in Japan this Xmas. Is it Tokyo you are going to? If so, I guarantee you will love it out there mate. :) Check out Shibuya and Akihabara for all the Japanese Retro Games and Anime/Manga. :) I went out there for Xmas back in 2001 and loved every minute of it. :)
Had days like that myself, at least everything is ok though. The Atari Jaguar didn't seem worth the money, for the system or the games, it seems more of a specialist interest kind of odd computer.
Are you going to do a Shenmue pilgrimage when you go to Japan?
Looks like you have a month to go. So I would recogmend a helment and pads until you step on the plane! Lol. Can't wait to see what you come back with though.
You sound as clumsy as me mate! lol. Thank god it isnt broken again- that would have been a nightmare! Maybe tie yourself to a chair for the next month? lol
Gosh.. Gotta be extra careful even when around your home man... That was close... Hope it heals completely soon... Looking forward to watch those gameplay vids as you promised :P Take care!!
Lucky man, you are a fragile guy, huh? But good fortune to have not re-broken it, the sprain is no fun, but its better than the alternative. Hope it heals fast!
Ah no mate, glad it wasn't too serious and that you're feeling better, must have been pretty scary waiting to find out!
By the way, the second part of my Heart of Darkness vid should be up Friday! :)

Yeah right, secured in bubble wrap from head to toe! You could have a small hole in the door for friends and family to bring you food and beer..
