I’m back, sorta

There were a lot of firsts for me last Wednesday: first broken bones; first ride in an ambulance; first morphine; first surgery by a doctor I’d never met (and still haven’t talked to. I’m trying to make an appointment to see her for the follow-up on the operation, but her office hasn’t yet returned my call). You can see the before and after pictures of my ankle here and here. I’ve spent most of my time since then lying in bed with the left leg iced and elevated. I’ve read some and listened to a few CDs, but mostly I’ve been too drowsy to do much of anything at all. I’m starting to feel a bit more awake now, so maybe I can start posting a little.

  1. Mmmmm… morphine. And remember that the best mixer with physical therapy is gin.

    PS Get well soon.

  2. Dude, nice jorb on the ankle! What’d you do? Whatever you did, be glad you didn’t just blow the ligaments (like I did, once upon a time)… you’ll heal faster with “just” a break.

    Funny, gin is a good mixer with just about anything, actually…
