Shin and ankle reconstruction. Couple of torn tendons and a torn ligament, kinda walked on my shin stump for a few steps after folding my ankle and it messed way too much up ^.^’

This morning was the most pain I've felt in an extremely long time, like, about 20 years. Took me an hour to get dressed.

Took pain meds, they helped. Made the mistake of stretching and curling my toes when I stretched.

I could now ACE a "musculature of the leg" A&P quiz. That's some vivid pain.

oh and price point? like, i dunno really. i usually run my laptops til death. the last one i had before this I kept til it was electrocuting me, and the one before that was more binder clip than laptop at the end. The gaps for my laptop purchases are fairly wide

So, my laptop is crashing every 2-3 hours of use with a thread exception error, likely from being dropped at the airport a couple of times. But I suck at laptop shopping. Is anyone here a very, very patient computer person who can help me with my laptop grocery list?

I'm so very bad about pain mitigation. >.> it is my worst self-care. Like, living for a few decades with terrible terrible migraines and all my old boxing soreness? it's always "well, I've felt worse pain." never "Pain isn't normal."

"Okay, I know its only been an hour but this pain is kicking my ass. I need to re-up."

"Basil its been 4 hours."

"...oh."

Sometimes things are meant to be. Bwuh. They all fit perfectly across one shelf.

3 stack of 21 hardcover books in 7, 7 and 8. It's the complete philomel hardcover printing of the the Redwall series.

The same collection of 21 books, fitting perfectly into a murphy door shelf, with approx 1" spare.

I waved hello for Bear with his paw on a call tonight. I can’t recall having done that in the past 3 decades. >.> that was nice

Awful, but not inaccurate.

I started wondering if there were vanilla sex workers. Not going to them for a scene, but going to them to like, have a really good vanilla LARP. And if that could be done online.

I spent a solid hour reinventing professional dungeon masters. By being on a lark about professional dungeon masters.

You know, I was not for a very very long time. I think I just finally managed to find an offramp for that path a few years ago.

But it means so SO very much that you see me as kind. I feel kind. That makes my chest warm.

Insanely long story. Short is as follows:

I was 16 and helping my father move mid-divorce.

Bad moving decisions plus impatience all culminated in

“We can’t go to the hospital, it’ll look bad in the divorce.”

-ripped-!

Caught a falling couch. Successfully mind you.

But the couch kinda won anyways.

I went with <random assortment of Amazon letters>. I’ll look at them next!

Also oh my god pain.

“This is going to be intense pain.” Says the surgeon.

“My arm was once detached, I know intense pain.” Says the rabbit.

“Here’s a jelly bean jar full of Percocet.” Says the surgeon.

“That’ll go mostly unused.” Says the rabbit.

-barely four hours later-

“Oh god.”

Know what has finally got me from “I will find the perfect skirt” to “literally any cute skirt. Damn.”

The giant boot and its incompatibility with jeans.

I have noticed an odd side effect of Percocet makes me way more willing to anthropomorphize my Bear.

Like, he’s always him, he always exists. But Percocet lets me be more outwardly “This is Bear. Bear wants X.” Or “Bear and I are doing <Y>.”

Still haven’t found his name yet.

Let’s hope the surgeon does more than me :p

Off to get my leg hacked off…errr, up. Wheeeee. Best to be getting cut up under a full moon though. That feels fun and auspicious and appropriate somehow.
