i've been without use of my right leg since november 1. the next time i post, i'll explain what happened with the surgery, and then i'll link it to everything i touch, since i'm sick of explaining it every time someone asks, "what's that on your leg?". the physical therapist has said that a goal to fully walk again by february's end isn't an ( Read more... )

after three weeks of physical therapy and a checkup by the doctor, apparently i do need surgery on my legs after all. both of them. i don't know who's going to do it, if i'm getting one leg done at a time or both at the same time, or what the recovery time is. i don't know when it's going to happen, how much time i'm going to miss at work, ( Read more... )

so i think i might have figured out why i'm having problems with insomnia. of course, it has to do with the job. since i only work 3 or 4 days a week, it's not allowing for a stable sleeping schedule. on nights before i have to work, i have to go to bed before or around 10PM. the rest of the time, i stay up pretty late, doing whatever. i'll go ( Read more... )

y'know...there's a ceiling to how hick you can get when you're born an asian...

i will get to japan even if it costs me an eye. i'd prefer to at least keep the eye until i've seen enough of japan. then i'll give up the eye. if the eye is asked for before i get to japan, then i'll make that sacrifice. but even though i just said all that, i'd still much rather just go to japan and not have to sacrifice anything, including the ( Read more... )
