OKAY. I am at work and squared away enough that I have time to update.

It was not the Roomba done me in. This morning I tripped going through the El gate, before I'd managed to scan my farecard, and caught myself left-handed on the turnstile. Yeah, I know.

It hurt like motherfuck but hell, all my doctors are downtown anyway so I figured I might as well get on a train and see how I was feeling when I got to my stop. I was feeling pretty bad, actually, and despite icing the wrist with a handy can of soda it was swelling a bit, so I went down to Michigan Avenue Immediate Care, which is possibly the best walk-in clinic in the city of Chicago.

The upshot, a handful of x-rays later, is that I have a sprained wrist probably connected to the fact that I was in a cast for a significant period of time about six months ago. Ice and rest; it's braced in an Ace bandage currently but they said considering I HAVE a wrist brace at home that's custom-fitted to me, I could wear that instead. I'm supposed to wear it the rest of the week and see my wrist doctor next Monday if there's still pain.

WELCOME TO MONDAY, GUYS.

I am home. ROBOT ARM GREETS YOU, vrrt vrrt vrrt.

I don't really even have words for this day. They wouldn't give me the Good Drugs at the clinic, which I understand, but it sucks that I'm on naproxen and it's making me restless. I don't want to eat anything, I barely remember what even happened today, I don't feel like writing. My comment replies are sporadic too, sorry about that.

I'm just cranky, it'll pass off.

It's the equinox today, and autumn has definitely come to Chicago, which is always a shock because I forget Chicago has an autumn. Because we don't have a spring.

It's sunny but crisp, cool in the evenings, and I had all kinds of plans for cooking this evening but now I'm just going to sulk and eat the monkeybread I made yesterday.

On the plus side, I have season two of Heroes downloading, so that'll be something to watch, and House of Cards just finished, and I love House of Cards. I'm going to curl up with the delightfully evil Francis Urquhart and plot world domination.
