Stand On the Right, Walk on the Left

That is what you are supposed to do on metro. Sadly, many people don't get that. And today, it screwed me over. Usually its just obnoxious and annoying when I miss my train or run in to someone at the bottom of the escalator. Today however, the person 2 people in front of me abruptly stopped while walking down the escalator, causing the person in front of me to do the same. That led me to stumble, and I'm not entirely sure what happened, but I think I rolled my ankle and/or fell on my foot. The bad thing is I did this on my bad (right) foot, and its been bothering me ever since. I'm slightly concerned I fractured something, as it hurts similarly to when I broke my foot in 2007 (same foot too). So if it continues to hurt tomorrow, its off to the doctor I go. Kaiser is certainly taking my money this year. As of now, I already have 2 appointments scheduled over the next month and a half. Sigh. Oh well. The moral of the story is when you visit DC, please stand on the right and walk on the left! Help those of us who live here get where we need to go without getting hurt!
