(personal) Home again, home again, jiggity-jig.

Okay, there won't be any jigging for a while around here. Knee is still a balloon and in fact woke me up at 4 am with pain (meds wore off early and I couldn't take any until 5:30 am), so it's an unpaid day off. Bleah. Yes, it's 6 am. Yes, I've already been up for 2 hours. Today is going to be a LOOONG day.

Dr.'s orders are to stay off the crutches and off my feet as much as possible today, so I'm camping out in the living room and writing. We'll see what kind of updates I post.

Bleah. Is it spring yet?

(personal) Good news and bad news

The Good: I can go back to work tomorrow! Yay! And they approved the MRI - I go on Saturday!

The Bad: The xray was inconclusive, so I need the MRI. And it showed fluid on the knee.

The Ugly: The doctor thinks I might have fractured the kneecap, and that the fluid is hiding it on the xray. Bah.

So we'll see. Mom's looking at home - my father had a full leg brace from when he blew his knee out, and hopefully I'll be able to use it.

Bleah. I hate winter.
