I must have broken it

[franklanguage]

It's over a week and my rib still hurts, so I probably broke something. Crazy how these hairline fractures can hurt so damn much.

Still, I still think I probably got away lucky; all I have to do is remember my friend Elsa who has a pin and a plate in her wrist and I count my lucky stars.

Aiee. As a fellow person with a hairline fracture at the moment, you have my sympathies. (Well, you would anyway, but I can empathize quite acutely at the moment.)

And I with you. So I feel less guilty about taking the Vicodin®.

If they gave me Vicodin I'd be gobbling that shit up like House.

They dont give you vicodin?!? They should be straight up giving you bags of heroin, at this point.

I got morphine. But it's a pain in the ass to renew so I'm rationing it. If the pain's lower than a 7, I don't take it.

Thank you so much for the LJ gift. You are truly one of the most thoughtful people I know.

I'm in NYC, but I don't have much time to see people. I leave tomorrow at noon. I'm coming back soon though and I plan to stay a little longer. Would you be free to hang out in maybe two weeks?

How did you hurt your rib????

I was walking by the Astor Place Barbershop and this guy sweeping catches my ankle with his broom and brings me down; I fell forward on my ribcage. When I caught my breath, I said, "Fuck…you!"

They just looked on to make sure I could get up and go away; I would have definitely taken all their pictures if I had thought faster.

(Oh, and yeah; let's get together. Remind me about your dad's memorial service, too.)
