damaged goods

[suchadreamer]

I have spent the last year and a half of my life un-damaging my goods. I have started eating properly, I have started swimming and yoga and pilates, I have started taking medication, I have seen better doctors (or "doctor") who are able to help me. I have been taking care of my Self. And now I am pissed off because all my hard work and attention

My mobility is 5/10, my car is 8/10 (and .5 of that is because Noah scratched the trunk trying to put his bike in it), and though I'm not pressing charges, I will be filing a police report on Tuesday, before I go see my rheumatologist. I took a nap around noon today, and ended up sleeping for two hours, which somehow made me feel quite a bit worse, but maybe I would have felt worse anyway. I'm mostly upset about how this is going to affect me long-term, and about how insensitive this woman was/is.

I'm happy you liked the book. Yes, some parts were heartbreaking, but I liked how they were overlapping the funny parts. I liked how her dad got rid of the furniture little by little, for no apparent reason until the end.

Man, that's terrible, Rose. How fast was she going? Were you at a full stop?

The funny thing was that she wasn't going that fast and even though I was at a full stop, it wasn't that bad, at least from the perspective of the car (or the woman). The unfunny thing is how much it damaged me anyway. I feel pretty bad today, but I'm taking a lot of baths with epsom salts.

Waaaah

I'm sorry about your accident - I'm sorry I've been sort of in and out of touch over the last month. Things will go back to normal shortly...if normal exists
