FFS +5 Days

Progress.

Small children stare at me. Men offer me their seats.

On Saturday I went to see Iron Man with Ruby and Scott. Ruby was nice enough to hold my arm as I held the other out in a gesture that could be read as either "My face is too swollen for me to see you beyond where my hand is" or could also mean "Pardon me. I could lose my balance."

Good

Get well soon!! Was it in Chonburi or?

[hundun]

Thanks.

I don't understand your question. What's "Chonburi?"

[ex_sonjaaa]

Sorry, I meant to ask who was your surgeon (and what city)?

Were you able to take time off work for extended healing and rest?

[hundun]

I went to Spiegel, in Boston. My Mum's a nurse and says that the stitches look good.

My contract ended about three hours after I wok up from surgery, so I was able to take time off, in a way. I'll have classes when I return, but I can do those while all bruised up - not that it's that bad now.

I hope you making a prancing appearance when you're all healed up!

[hundun]

Prancing? Like reindeer?

Enjoy your new job. I hope orientation went well, and that no one got lost and eaten by a bear. Or was this one of those sissy white collar "orientations" which involves neither compasses nor bush navigation?

[sciencequeen]

Sure reindeer could work! Though when I said it, I was first thinking of those little girls that would be holding hands or linking arms and skipping along in a playground singing songs...like Ring Around the Rosies or something. It wouldn't need to involve a playground, or other people really, but that was the image I conjured up when I first said "prancing".

However, if reindeer is what you first saw, then by all means, do it. Then you can teach me to fly, right?

It was Orientation, not ORIENTEERING. :P It went okay...I found it interesting, but a little over my head just because it's so much stuff that you're taking in passively; it won't really gel til I get down to it. The last board meeting was epic. Not exaggerating. There was shouting and crying and it went for 3.5 hours!!

[hundun]

Yeah, orientation was overwhelming. I think that I remember about half of it.

Which board meeting? On the 30th with the old board, or has there been one since then?

[plaidalicious]

*squishes* Get better soon!

[hundun]

I don't know about the new me, but perhaps I can introduce you to my new skull?

I've been thinking about putting some words on paper in a make-money kinda way. I have an idea in this respect. We'll have to talk more about this when I get back.

You write extremely well, and your perspective is unique. I'd love to read that book.

I'm looking forward to seeing your revised face :)
