good parts about being broken

it has been a full month since the back surgery.  it's been a long month, i am exhausted, whiney and taking alot of meds, which i don't like to do, the taking meds parts not the whiney.  today as i stood at the window watching the rain i realized i did not have go out in the rain for any reason.  i hate winter.  i hate being cold.  i now realize the best part of currently being broken is that i do not have to get up early in the cold, get dressed, warm up a cold car, and battle the weather to get to work.  hot damn!!!!!!   i hate doing all of those things.  it rained hard this afternoon, during my nap, which would have been the time i had to drive home.  lucky me.  ya gotta cling to the cheap thrills.  and there is something to say about living in jammies too. 

yesterday i had a doctor's appt, now there's something wrong with my wrist (kill me now), and everyone was busy and i had to drive myself.  this was my first outing alone.  the other errands i needed to do i did before the appt cuz i knew i would be tired by the time it was over, and i was.  now i have to find out what wrongs with my wrist.  there is some theory both by my primary and the surgeon is that sometimes during long surgeries, mine was 4 hours flat on  my face, body parts wind up in off positions and are quite sore afterward.  i don't care, i can't cope with more than one big pain at a time and i've been positiviely weepy.  i really hate that too.  obviously my attitude continues to be 'fussy'. 

now if i can bend over long enough to cut my toenails.  they're looking deadly.
