sigh of contentment

You have no idea how much easier life is when you have use of both arms.

Think how much a third arm would improve your skiboxing!

:) I have been informed that you will likely kill me soon as I figured out the TMBG song you were working on. Oh well, it was a good life. I was so hip, I had difficulty seeing over my pelvis.

Ha. :)

I'll let you live... this time.

Help, my journal is being overrun by geeks!

What else is new? ;)

[identity profile] furitaurus.livejournal.com 2005-10-10 06:05 pm (UTC)(link)
I guess we can only imagine.

If you have never been in a cast or bound up in another restraining device, I think this is true.

As irritating as all this was, having my leg in a cast was worse. So much worse. I'd rather be immobilized for another month than go through that again.

[identity profile] furitaurus.livejournal.com 2005-10-10 06:26 pm (UTC)(link)
I see, it must be terrible f you had an itch down inside your cast. You'd never get to it!

[identity profile] owlmoose.livejournal.com 2005-10-10 06:46 pm (UTC)(link)
There's that. Also, crutches are seriously uncomfortable. And you have to cover the whole thing with a bag when you take a shower. The real problem is not being able to take the damn thing off. At least I could remove the immobilizer and be free of it for awhile. A cast is your constant companion for weeks. Ugh ugh ugh. I really hope I never need one again.

Well i hope so too, they sound most unpleasant.

Two words - knitting needles.

That would work.... but what if you had both arms in casts?

One word - teeth. And kindly do not bring up lock-jaw. LOL

I thought that was just an old wives tale to scare kids?

Oooh no. Lockjaw is real. And it's ugly. Don't get tetnus. Casts are better.

Re: I

[identity profile] furitaurus.livejournal.com 2005-10-10 08:47 pm (UTC)(link)
How is lock jaw ugly? Surely it's just when your jaw locks itself... doesn't sound too ugly to me. Very frustrating of course but ugly?

Re: I

Lockjaw is tetanus. It is supposed to be a very unpleasant way to die. More.

I shall immediate print this out and post it on the wall before me, lest I forget. LOL

So glad you are out of the immobilizer. Now, go do your exercises. *I have proclaimed myself the official Nag-in-Chief*

Re: I

It's wisdom for the ages, man.

Now, go do your exercises.

Well I'm at work right now, I can't do them *here*. :P Try me again around, oh, say 7pm my time. ;)

Re: I

[identity profile] owlmoose.livejournal.com 2005-10-11 03:00 am (UTC)(link)
All right, I did them. Happy now?

:)

More gratified. One must always hunt for the proper word. Or as MC calls it - le bon mot juste. ;)

Always glad to please you. Or gratify, or whatever the correct word might be. :)

I put up a post for your eyes only last night, but it got backdated by accident so it occurs to me that you might not have seen it. So I thought I would mention it just in case.

Glad you're out of the immobilizer! Though I can't help but think of Little T who only has the use of one arm.

[identity profile] owlmoose.livejournal.com 2005-10-10 10:19 pm (UTC)(link)
Totally understandable that you would think of that, and I hope you weren't upset by the fact that I didn't, in my little moment of celebration...

[identity profile] waterowl.livejournal.com 2005-10-11 02:05 am (UTC)(link)
No, of course not.
