Yes, I am going to the limp-in[1] clinic tomorrow morning. I promise.

commodorified: ok, I just opened iTunes. Did Steeleye Span ever do a song called CAM YE ALL AROUND MY HAT?
angevin2: No, they did not. 
commodorified: I thought not. I think we may posit that the ow-candies[2] have kicked in.

The fact that I find this funny enough to post is probably further proof that they have kicked in. I'm off to bed with Ellen Kushner[3].

[1] It's a stress fracture. We're pretty sure.
[2] Oxycontin [sp?]. Scary stuff, but when you absolutely positively have GOT to get some rest...
[3] Swordspoint. Pervs.

Swordspoint is good, but I much prefer the sequel. It makes me happy in my feminist place.

many many years ago, I gave swordspoint a try and couldn't finish it. perhaps i should give it a second go.

:O

Rest up and hope all turns as well as it can be. *hugsmuch*

And when you have finished thoroughly debauching Ellen KushSwordspoint, I recommend debauching The Privilege of the Sword. And possibly The Fall of Kings.

But it would be totally awesome if the had.
Or something.

*smooches you*

Get rest, yes.

Lucky you that oxycontin works.

When I was in the Shouldice clinic for hernia operations a few years ago I added oxycontin -- which was given me because I'd already demonstrated resistance to the usual sedatives they were using for patients going into the operation (done with sedatives + local anaesthetic) -- to the list of drugs which I basically don't react to nearly as much as normal people. I was wide awake and coordinated going into the operation...

Lucky you that oxycontin works.

*nods* It almost makes up for being completely immune to Novocaine, Marcaine, and for all I know or care to know also to cocaine, not to mention the fact that I can't touch codeine unless I want my pulse to double and my blood pressure to halve...

I regard the oxycontin with wary little jungle eyes all the same; it was given to Ian post surgery and he didn't need it, so now it lives in the wilderness first aid kit, because sometimes in the wilderness you need to be able to do things no sane person would ever do, like hike back down a moutain on a broken bone...

I was wide awake and coordinated going into the operation...

I'd have demanded a couple extra pillows so as to get a clear view. But I am, as you know, a bit strange. And aren't you glad the locals work on you?

I always feel sorry for the doctors when this happens. When the nice lady who stitched up my lip realised we were going to be doing this with me completely un-numbed she turned a peculier shade of greenish-white for a moment...

Thumping around with an undefined ache in the arch of my right foot.
And I think ye've conflated CAM YE O'ER FRAE FRANCE and ALL AROUND MY HAT. Unless they did a medley the way Queen did with BICYCLE RACE/FAT BOTTOMED GIRLS, of course.

I think ye've conflated CAM YE O'ER FRAE FRANCE and ALL AROUND MY HAT.

Err, yes. I was, see footnote 2, stoned off my incandescently white Royal Canadian Arse.

My goodness, you're the second person on my FL in 24 hours to mention That Evil Drug (it slows every system in my body down to almost a complete stop, and some of those effects last for weeks).

Take care.

... and your post turned up on my friends page right after the one from Ellen Kushner which ended, approximately 'we'll see how things are in the morning.'...

*snorfle*

I'm sayin' nothin'

You're the second broken foot on my friend's list in the past week. And I hope you enjoyed the book.
