bah, bah, and humbug

dull weekend + knee pain = grumpy JA

It's been a very un-social weekend. I mean, I got a massage which does involve a few minutes of conversation with L, and spending a couple of hours with David the Realtor was kind of fun, but basically I feel dull & lonely & like all of my friends are too busy to want to spend time with me & therefore I am a loser because why am I the one with nothing to do?

After several rounds of icing & two doses of ibuprofin, yesterday's sharp knee pain has subsided to the level of mild ache, occasional twinges, and fear. I hate not being able to move around normally because I am afraid (truly, viscerally afraid) that any step may go badly wrong.

On my todo list for today:
- finish laundry (almost done)
- grocery shopping
- workout at gym call chiropractor to see if I can get in sooner than next Saturday, and maybe stop at the gym just to soak in the hot tub
- go to a movie? watch more Olympics on TV? sit in the armchair and read? (and try to explain to the kitties why they can't put their full weight on my legs right now?)

Also: boredom + anxiety + forced inactivity = me want to eat everything in the fridge

bah, bah, bah.
