Complication, Part Deux

So I have an appointment with Dr. Aboolian on Thursday, but it looks like I'll be making my way over there ASAP tomorrow morning. Guess who has a sac of fluid built up in her left hip?

Oh, to make it easier on everyone:

Left Hip - Good Hip
Right Hip - Sutured

So now that my right hip as been put back together, apparently my left hip felt left out of the fun. I took pics and sent them to Mel (she's a nurse and I take full advantage of her occupation), and she was like "if it gets worse at all go to the ER". Yeah right, but I will have to get this baby aspirated tomorrow morning.

I'm highly frustrated, it's annoying, and as much as I know it's not my fault, I'm still pissy, 'cause it hurts! Well, it's starting to anyway. I'd post a picture, but I know my reader(s) are squeamish.

In other news, um, Meghann and I are talking again. I missed her, ya know? I missed calling her and just gabbing out life and nonsense. We're moving on. Forgive and forget, because it's just not worth it, we love each other that much. So I'll see her Saturday.

I'm also dog-sitting this week for a 120 lbs Burmese Mountain Dog! Boy, does he pull me around the block.

Just kidding....yeah, like I could dog sit THAT right now.

Instead, I have Zoey, who's a powderpuff of Adorableness. She just likes to sleep and cuddle. Just like me. I take her outside for 2 minutes and she does her business. Nice and prompt. And then it's back to playtime and sleep. Definitely a dog after my own heart. It's nice to have a dog again, even for short periods. She's very comforting to hold and to pet, and well, y'all know how it is. She'll definitely have a photo shoot before she goes back to Melissa, her owner.

Basically what happened is this. Melissa moved to Newport Beach, and I hadn't seen her in 9 years. We're chatting, and she mentions she's putting her dog in a kennel while she goes east next week. Now, I've only seen her once in 9 years, but screw that. "Zoey can come stay with me". And it's perfect. She hangs out with me and soothes me and makes this bed rest not quite so painful.

Michelle and I went to dinner tonight (last night? LOL), and had yummy food. She says she's never seen me eat so much, which is awesome progress. I felt good and satisfied.

Then I went to stalk my cousin Adrienne, who I've always adored and SUCKS at staying in contact with people, and it was SO good to see her. She's just awesome. And beautiful. I can't wait to hang out with her in the future.

So tomorrow looms. I guess I get aspirated, then go to the pharmacy for more supplies (wheee *sarcasm*), then to my Mom's to do work for her. I hope she takes her aspirin. MAN does she get bitchy when she has a headache. No seriously, it's like superbitch. I love my Mom, but it's cooooold.

Also, according to the balance scale, I went down to 138.5. Huh. The more I eat, I lose. Fascinating. I'm hoping to eventually work my way up to 1800 cals/day, but I need to get comfy with 1600 first. And then once I start exercising, maybe 2000 cals/day. My brain is telling me "NO NO NO NO", but I know it's the right thing to do. Health is important. Can't let my crazy get in the way.
