Meh. I went to the doctor today, because I've been having trouble with my knee (something I've had before - it flairs up every 6 months to a year). The doctor thinks it might be a torn miniscus (sp?), which is the sort of injury that flairs up at odd intervals. So I'm in a leg imobilizer and using a cane (and on a mega-dose of ibu). I think this may be overkill, and the thing is already annoying the hell out of me. I'm supposed to be in this for seven days, but I suspect I'll be giving it up sooner out of annoyance. I have tomorrow off as a personal day, but I won't really be able to do any of the stuff I hoped to.
I caught her on a park bench, making out with a *chaos* demon! Have you ever seen a chaos demon? They're all slime and antlers.

And yet, probably less painful than a UTI. Much health-ma for Daniel.

be a torn miniscus
Meniscus - common injury in baseball. But not a good one! I'm afraid we'll have to put you on the Disabled List.

We're all day-to-day, though, right? Sorry. Damn Mentionitis. My mom had to wear a boot last summer...helping me out while wearing it was a bit "Young Frankenstein".

Owie ow, Daniel! Send him my best wishes for the good drugs and quick healing, WindSparrow!
So I'm in a leg imobilizer and using a cane (and on a mega-dose of ibu). I think this may be overkill, and the thing is already annoying the hell out of me. I'm supposed to be in this for seven days, but I suspect I'll be giving it up sooner out of annoyance.
Obey your DOCTOR! When best friend effed up her knee but good years ago when she was living with me she was in an immobilizer for ...way longer than 7 days. We called it Immoby so that it would seem more cute than ugly and incovenient. We still talk about it sometimes! "Wonder what Immoby's up to these days?" Anyway, her knee is way better. She's ridden hundreds and hundreds of miles on her bike and is in marathon training now.

Feel better-ma to Frank and Daniel.
I'm back from my doctors appointment. Appaparently starting to feel better and then feeling worse is common with effexor because of the two different drugs in it. Yay? IOW, I get to wait it out, but he did up my dose.
I'm still waiting for word of J's surgery.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
Daniel and Frank, stop this mess right now! You're both supposed to be healthy! Get better now.
