Still alive

devilgrrlI am not very interesting right now, mainly because I am sleeping a ton (10 hours a night, with a 2-odd hour nap in the evening) and not really going anywhere. Anyhow... on to the knee updates.
The itching has set in. I know that means it's healing, but it's so fucking frustrating. The skin in the outside of my knee is still numb to the touch, so itching does nothing, at all. Steven also took the fork I was using to get some relief away. Damn him.
I did, finally, however, cajole him into sex. I've wanted it since Wednesday morning and he's been putting me off because he was afraid of hurting the knee. I think the knee would have been fine, no matter what. I was more afraid my kitty would fall off or something in the interim. It has literally been more than two years, I think, since we've gone more than three days without sex.
I'm not sure why, but my kitty has developed a ton of dry skin and I have no idea why. It sucks, though, because it's all cracked and whatnot. I honestly am blaming it on the lack of sex because, now that I've gotten some, it's almost totally gone. It was the wierdest thing.
Though, maybe it had to do with how much I was peeing from the anaesthesia. I would assume that would dry things out a lot.
I started putting a little weight on my leg this evening while using the crutches. It hurts like hell and feels like the whole thing is going to fall in. I can only imagine this is what having a pegleg would be like. Arrrrrr!
My leg also had a huge spasm this morning that hurt like hell. I don't know if that's normal or not. I've been following the exercises he gave me, so I guess it's probably a side effect or something. The stretching alternatively feels great and really shitty. Right now, it's aching like hell from the dampness, though.
I think things will be a lot better when some more of the swelling goes down. I honestly think that's where a lot of the residual pain is coming from.
I'm super tired all of a sudden. We've been watching Cirque du Soliel all day and it puts me in this really groggy trance. Bleh.
