merely talk

I'm still alive and standing today, which normally wouldn't seem like a big deal, but in light of recent events feels like a major accomplishment. I slept on and off all day Sunday, which was beautiful. In my waking moments I did my readings for the week, or chatted on the phone, or visited with people. It was a fun way to spend the day. Much more fun than my original plan of going to work. Blah.

Alas I return to the job today. Since by all accounts there really isn't anything too wrong with me, and I still need to eat and keep a roof over my head, it makes sense that I should work. It'll be good though. I'll get to grill my co-worker about what happened to me, which will hopefully take some of the mystery out of it.

I called the doctor as instructed today, and since they aren't allowed to read my test results over the phone I have to wait until I can get an appointment, the secretary seemed to think that would be sometime in November. So I sure hope there is nothing too wrong with my brain, or at least whatever it is can hold until November sometime.

But onto better topics. I went out with Andrea and Francis and two of Andrea's cousins last night as a final stag weekend sort of thing. We headed to the Sicilian Pasta Kitchen. That is one yummy restaurant, and I had a lot of fun. One of the bonuses is that I got both picked up and dropped off at my door. Which made me a happy camper. I had made the three block trek out to Safeway earlier in the day, and I figured that was it for exercise for me for the day. Today I'm going to try to walk to school. It is slightly farther, and usually takes me a little under an hour. But I think some fresh air will do me good, and my legs are longing to be used. At least I think that's what all the aches are. I've been walking quite a distance everyday, with Sunday being the first time I haven't, and man do my legs ache. It hurts to move them, and their so tight.

But yeah. I'm okay. I'm looking forward to my class today, I only wish that all the sticky stuff the tape the hospital used left on my body would come off. I've already had a shower and have been rubbing at them. But it just won't come off. Also the IV left a really nasty bruise on my hand. And it hurts.

I promise this will be the last health update I ever do, because apparently it turns me in to a boring whiner. Sigh.
