Have to get up at Oh-God-Hundred in the morning to get to the hospital by 7:30 for the surgery (which isn't actually until 9:30). Supposedly I'll be able to put weight on the ankle almost immediately but I'm going to stash away my drinks and a couple of snacks in the library so I don't have to climb the stairs until bedtime.
Not looking forward to the 2-3 week healing period but I am looking forward to walking without so much pain again. I am resolved that I will start exercising at that point, whether it is with aquatic physical therapy or just walking remains to be seen. I'll ask the surgeon to recommend physical therapy so I can get the insurance to pay for part of it!
Supposedly if I look carefully tomorrow morning, I'll be able to spot that comet. We'll see if I'm awake enough at 6:30am ...
i'm attacking the darkness,
but wait ... there's more!,
all alone in the moonlight,
get off the road you fecking bastahd,
my karma ran over your dogma,
crivens!
