Happy Fucking Holidays..

I found out how I'm spending at least the next week, if not the holiday season. I'm spending it on crutches, minimally. Almost two weeks ago, while working out at the gym, something in my bad knee popped. I do mean popped and loudly at that. I reduced weight and assumed that it just had cracked.

Back to today... It's still bugging me and Steven's "loving" reminders that I should not ignore it, prompted me to call. I figured that my doctor would just tell me that I strained it, but noooo. He's concerned I retore cartiliage and I am being bundled off to see an orthapaedist next Thursday. Until then, no gym, no long distance walking, and no weight bearing. Ought to be fun going into finals week.

But, I get percosets, so whatever.

I'm actually far more upset about this than I'm letting on. Bah.

Mm, oxycodone...

Well, now my knee no longer hurts, but my mind is all goo. When I first went in to the doctor's, I had mentioned that my knee hurt, especially at night or when it's damp. I also have a ton of fluid on it, which isn't helping with the pain. So my doctor asked if I'd like something to help with it. I'm thinking something just a little stronger than what's normally sold OTC. What do I get? 35 oxycodone. My appointment with the orthopaedist is less than a week from today. What was really funny was that the 35 pills are a 5 day supply. There is no way I could take 7 of these things a day.

I have a new screen name. If anyone wants it, send me an email. That or I'll post it in a friends only post. I'm feeling avoidant.
