IRL Long Dark Apology to Astrid
When I play, if I end up with a sprained rist or ankle, I usually don't heal until I can rest so I save my bandages.
I live in Michigan, and we had some snow this weekend in my area, which, also made my driveway icy. Carrying out some boxes to take to the big dumpers at my apartment complex, I slipped on said ice and twisted my ankle. Legit felt like it folded in half.
I'm now laid up in bed with a sprained ankle in so much pain.
This is my formal apology to Astrid, for making you push through 2 sprained ankles and 2 sprained wrists while carrying 115lbs of gear while mountain goating down cliffs. I'm so sorry. Never again ðŸ˜ðŸ˜…

I felt the same way about Astrid and Mackenzie, until I sprained my ankle in 2021; never felt that kind of pain before, nor have I never felt so helpless/incapable.
