It was and an EXCESSIVE amount of leaves I couldn\u2019t even see where I was running! That\u2019s when I ran my left foot off the sidewalk, rolled my ankle and almost fell on my ass.<\/p>\n<p>It was actually really comical I\u2019m sure anyone who might have seen would\u2019ve laughed because my face went from peacefully admiring nature to OH SHIT IM GOING DOWN in the span of 2 seconds. I recovered quickly and finished my run.<\/p>\n<p>I went about my day as per usual, over time my ankle started to get more and more sore to the point where it hurt enough that I decided maybe I should put some ice on it.<\/p>\n<p>But first I had to see if it was actually swollen and I wasn\u2019t just being a hypochondriac. I did what every college student would do, ask their roommate.<\/p>\n<p><em>Me<\/em>: hey can you see if one of my ankles looks swollen? I\u2019m not-<\/p>\n<p><em>My Roommate<\/em>: Don\u2019t tell me which ankle it is!<\/p>\n<p><em>Me<\/em>: Got it.<\/p>\n<p><em>Me<\/em>: *<strong>waits patiently*<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>My Roommate<\/em>: the left one looks swollen, ice it!!<\/p>\n<p>(PSA: my roommate is actual the best like she really is).<\/p>\n<p>So I go to our freezer and pull the ice tray out only to remember the events the occurred last weekend, which left our ice tray filled with not water, but \u201cSex on the Beach\u201d Jell-O shots\u2026<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ablogonlyamothercouldlove.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/11\/fzkaihwhf83a3lbuojdt.gif\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-47 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/ablogonlyamothercouldlove.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/11\/fzkaihwhf83a3lbuojdt.gif?w=300&#038;h=169\" alt=\"fzkaihwhf83a3lbuojdt\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Let me explain, last weekend my roommate and I made these <strong>amazing<\/strong> Jell-O shots, but we ran out of Dixie cups so what do we do? That\u2019s right, we filled our ice cube tray. However, the Jell-O shots in the tray weren\u2019t jelling (is that the word?) So we put the ice tray in the freezer and forgot about it. <a href=\"http:\/\/jezebel.com\/surprise-gop-candidate-preaches-abstinence-teen-daugh-1603154662\">GIF via Giphy<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Until now.<\/p>\n<p>My roommate and I laughed for a minute and I went to put them back into our freezer when my roommate goes, \u201cwhat are you doing? You need to ice your ankle.\u201d So I filled a Ziploc baggie with some Jell-O shots and here I am writing this, \u201cicing\u201d my ankle.<\/p>\n<p>Also while writing this I found out that the cranberry juice was what made our Jell-O shots not Jell-O-y.
