I feel like that running joke in Airplane... where Lloyd Bridges sez "I picked a bad week to...", shortened to a day, in my particular case. I feel like three thugs sneaked into El Casa Móvil De Pennington last evening, rendered me unconscious and proceeded to beat the living dogsnot out of me. I hurt ALL over today... legs, back, shoulders, arms... you name it. I woke up this morning (I use the term "morning" oh-so-loosely) wondering what the Hades happened, coz events like this are exceedingly rare to non-existent for me.
I toughed it out until about 20 minutes ago and then took two Aleves. The temptation to get horizontal is overwhelming, but I just can't do that. I need to stay awake until at least 2200 hrs tonight and then get a good night's sleep. Coz we have our surgery on the morrow, Gentle Reader, oh yes we DO.
Gotta be well-rested for that.

I hope you get to feeling better and the surgery goes well and that your recovery time is minimal. If you are unable to talk for a while, I happen to know sign language - sort of.
ReplyDeleteGood luck, and I hope you feel better ASAP, Buck!
ReplyDeleteHope you can feel better. Good luck.

Maybe it's karma for enjoying yesterday's happy hour a little too much!
ReplyDeleteHope everything goes well tomorrow, Buck. Keep us posted, once you are feeling well enough to do so.

ReplyDeleteHope all goes smoothly tomorrow, Buck, and that you heal quickly from your surgery.
(Did you eat anything unusual the night before?)
Oh yes - your sign is very clever. Is that somewhere in Paree, peut-etre?
ReplyDeleteFeel better... this is just not right for you to be under the weather!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes, Buck!
ReplyDeleteThank you all... most appreciated!
ReplyDeleteBec: nothing unusual the night before... at all. The event remains a mystery to me, but I feel fine today.
Best of luck with that Buck!
ReplyDelete"We" are sending positive thoughts for a fast recovery!
ReplyDeleteMan, that sucks. Hope it goes away before your appt. Do you need any help with that tomorrow? I may not could help with getting you there if it's early (have to have the kids to school around 7:45), but I could give you a ride home if needed.
ReplyDeleteGlad you are feeling better this morning.
ReplyDeleteHope all goes smoothly during and after.
Good luck on the upcoming surgery, Buck. If your experience is like mine, you'll have a few interesting bruises to show for it. I looked as though I had gone 10 (unsuccessful) rounds with Joe Frazier. Makes great pics for the blog, though :-)
ReplyDeleteDespite the above, relatively painless - especially afterward, with the scrips :-)
Sounds like the flu, Buck.
ReplyDeleteI hope the surgery went well.
Well here's hoping that you continued to feel better today and that your surgery went fine.
ReplyDeleteI presume pain meds are in your future...that will make everything feel just AOK. So long as it's not Vicodin - I still refer to my one experience with it last week as the "Vicodin Incident".
Yeah.
Just checking in Buck. Hope you are doing okay... will be watching RSS for you!
ReplyDeleteOnce again: Thank you ALL. "Things" did go well, as far as I know. I say that because I was totally unconscious for the whole thing, and slept quite a bit once I got home. The pain is manageable with 400mg Motrin and all I'm feeling is slight discomfort. "Better living through chemistry," in other words. That ain't bad.
ReplyDelete"Better living through chemistry,"
ReplyDeleteHear, hear!
