Knee

I totally messed up my knee playing indoor soccer on Saturday. I guess I completely tore my ACL and other things. Basically, I'm really hurt and need surgery. There are definitely pros and cons to messing up your knee:

Cons:

• Crutches make my arms really sore
• Physical therapy is the worst. I may or may not have cried for a second.
• My office building is not handicap friendly. All of the doors are really hard to open when you don't really have any free hands.

Pros:

• It is a great conversation starter. I have talked to tons of people in our office building that I've never talked to before and I've been working there for a year and a half.
• My nieces are my slaves. They'll pretty much do anything I ask.
• I love being put under. I'm always really happy when I come out of it.
• I have a job that is willing to work with all of my appointments and everyone has been pretty nice about the whole situation.
• But most of all, I got to fulfill one of my long-time goals. I finally got to (legally) drive an electric wheelchair!

 

I really shouldn't have gone out in public wearing that but it's kind of hard to do laundry and I was going to Wal-Mart so I knew I wouldn't be the worst dressed person there.

Surgery on the 6th of September. Can't wait!!
