Recovery Day 2

Day 2 of recovery was not so bad. I basically lay in bed all day patiently waiting for my nose to heal.



I've been very good about taking my pain meds (Tylenol, nothing crazy) and antibiotics on schedule every 8 hours to prevent infection or further headaches. And it's not really painful at all. Just uncomfortable.

My nose has been full of blood and snot, but I'm not allowed to blow my nose (because it can hurt the stitches) so I just cover it up with gauze and leave it there or wait for it to drip out naturally which feels gooey and gross. So basically you just feel super congested and have to breathe through your mouth. But again, it's not so bad...it's nowhere near as bad as breaking your ankle.

Today, Day 3, will be much of the same. I've been actually quite productive, reorganizing my hard drive and getting a little work done while watching plenty of TV.

Thank you everyone for your texts and calls and messages and for the few people who have come to visit, you are extra super special.

Lady Di gets in from Arizona this afternoon to hang out, that is going to be fun! Too bad I don't think we're going to be able to gay-dance, but imma see if I can convince her to get her nose all dressed up like we got twin nose-jobs and go out on the town.
