9 things up on ebay. 1 more listing and I will be have done all that I planned to on that front. But first, I need to eat.

All that is really left to do today is get to Target, sew on the dog bed cover, and do more clearing out in mac's room.

Target now with a trip for food. then mac's room, then sew on teh dog bed while watching tv after dark. That is my plan.

Once again, my bedroom did not get any work done over a long weekend. oh well - I'll take that we at least got something done.

I have an interview for a job I don't really want tomorrow, which means I have to figure out what interview clothes fit.

Or...you don't.

OH GOD. Ortho has put me in the work-through-the-pain phase of recovery, so the ACE bandage is off and I'm trying to cane it through the office without even a brace. GOOD GOD this hurts. If I don't whine some, I will explode. But I do have to exercise the ligaments. He showed me a floating bone chip, but those don't hurt. The rest of the healing looks fine, but he's rating the ligament injury as severe, whereas the break was minor. So, oh. I'm still telling strangers "broken" though. It's just faster.

I tend to get offers when I go on interviews for jobs I don't want. Maybe giving no fucks makes me a better interviewer?

Thanks to some other people on Facebook, I just had a possibly life-changing realization: Netflix Streaming yoga! Instead of sitting hunched over my netbook waiting for the coffee to brew, I could spend 20 minutes a day with Rodney Yee and His Enormous Package and have a happy spine again!

Ligament injuries can be worse than breaks, can't they? I speak as someone who needed ankle surgery on a non-broken ankle.

My attitude towards the interview (beyond "Oh, no, not oil and gas again") is that I probably need the practice.

Ligament injuries can be worse than breaks, can't they?

Absolutely! Soft tissue is a bitch to heal, and bones can knit up really nicely. But broken a) is true b) has guaranteed impact (not everyone considers the hard/soft thing) c) makes me want to hurl less than "severely torn ligaments". So it wins.

No physical therapy??

I think I'm gonna grab myself a cane, having the top of the crutch get stuck the wrong way in my armpit is sketchy.

So the ER people told me to call their ortho doc (which I never did, because I only just looked at my papers now, and the office is like an hour away). Talked to the workman's comp insurance guy, and he said that they would contact me about setting up PT, but that hasn't happened yet. I've seen the chiro three times so far and he's been doing wonders for me. I'm sure he's not going to be covered by workman's comp, but I don't care.

But, do I call up the ortho recc'd by the ER, or call back the WC insurance dude?

No physical therapy??

Not from a physical therapist, no. But he has given me the mandate to walk more, brace less, and a couple twice daily exercises.
