Warning...Bionic Emoing Ahead....
I finally saw the first two episodes of Bionic Woman today, and I have to say I like it a lot. Jaime is a very interesting character as is her sister. And then there are all the subplots and the crazy evil bionic chick. Yeah, I'll be keeping up with this one.
Unfortunately, though, I think I overidentified with Jaime today and am therefore feeling very emo.
So, I have a new body part. Yes, my new boob came from a large chunk of my stomach and therefore is still mine. But it's a new body part. It's still a little swollen plus I'm still trying to be careful of the blood vessels the doctors sewed together. I'm so terrified I'm going to break or bust something.
And then there's the fact I see all the stitches and glue when I look in the mirror. I have a huge scar going across my stomach, a new belly button, and the circle around my breast. I know that stuff won't be there forever and will look normal soon enough, but it's still disconcerting to see.
I think I'll be all right tomorrow, but for tonight, I'm kind of pouty. Perhaps some writing will help.
