Fanfiction Frenzy for Planned Parenthood has raised $115 so far. Keep it coming, folks!
My foot: looks like this, only more bruised and swollen. Am contemplating going to medical people, seeing as I HAVE insurance now, but that would involve going out again (third-floor walk-up), and it seems to hurt WORSE than yesterday. Want painkillers, but that would involve standing up. MERF.
I wish I had a human-load-rated windlass. Then I could just winch off the back porch. Or out a window. MUCH easier than the stairs.
Part of it is also that the rest of my body is starting to feel the strain of limping around all the time, having to take most of my body weight off of whatever I can grab, etcetera. Wrists, back, my good leg. I wanna hot tub. And, of course, the strain to my fingers from whining on LJ.
Also trying to figure out exactly how I'm going to get to work tomorrow. The train (ten-minute walk on a good day, climbing into it, walking to a shuttle which is usually standing room only, walking to work) is RIGHT OUT. Driving is doable, but the strain to my ankle (because, YES, it's my RIGHT FOOT, damn it) after an hour-plus drive usually leaves me barely able to walk, plus I have to either get in late or get up at 5:30 in the morning to miss the traffic...but I guess I'll have to go for that. So, SO not looking forward to that.
Should learn how to use my car's cruise control, at least, for the highways. That should help, right?
