Cranky for Australia!

Sche·ma
A diagrammatic representation; an outline or model.
A pattern imposed on complex reality or experience to assist in explaining it, mediate perception, or guide response.

I don't have a schema for this! I like schemas! I want a schema!
I have no idea what it will be like.
Like when I did my first half-marathon.
Or when I went into labour.
But not.
And they both worked out ok.....kind of...

I have only your wonderful support , fast healing, and a habit of optimism (I knew cultivating that would come in handy). I need nothing more. Just as well since it's all I have, no?

I am Olympic-standard cranky today. Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
(In an optimistic, well supported way).


The surgeon's receptionist tells me I'm 'fifth on the list' (coo er hospital talk how flash) and I'll be 'done before lunch'. Hmmm.

I'm not sure when I'll be able to get back to a computer. I'll get the Spousal Unit to let you know how it goes.
Why are so many 'crutch' jokes popping into my head?

Good luck and speedy healing! And don't go waving your crutch around at people when you get angry (there is a double entendre to get you started!)

Simlin said...

Good luck LBTEPA and may the running Gods be with you.

Hann said...

Same here, thinking lots of you and wishing you a quick recovery. I love the "smiley" on crutches! he he he
hoping only him got the bruised eye?

You've done a half marathon? And given birth? Girl, you've got more of a schema than you realize. Breathe, think positive thoughts, and all that stuff. {{{{{hugs}}}}} from New Mexico, US!

I wont say "don't worry, you'll be right" cause that is about as lame as ever. And the last thing you want the night before is a stranger saying "it's never as bad as you think".....

Just make sure you breathe, and that the surgeon knows exactly which leg to slice open BEFORE he starts (believe me, it happens...)

Good luck and i wish you a speedy recovery. Milk the crutches/invalid thing for all it's worth, because from what I see it (being on crutches)quickly becomes frustrating/a P.A.I.N.

Look forward to the classically LBTEPA updates, full of sarcasm and honesty :)

Take care
Jessie
