Who's got two thumbs and injured herself in her sleep?
This lady.
Don't ask me how I did it because I have no freakin' clue. All I know is that I was tired as hell when I went to bed around 9 last night, but I woke up at midnight in quite a bit of pain. I chalked it up to sleeping in a bad position and tried to get comfortable... to no avail. I did manage to sleep on and off until about 5am and, even though I hurt, I still had the "suck it up and go to work" mentality.
That is, until I tried to get up. When I woke at 5, I thought I should try to just walk it off, take a hot bath, something.
Worst idea in the history of ever!
When I stood, pain shot up and down my left side and I nearly crumpled to the floor.
It felt like someone had hit me with a baseball bat on the lower part of my left glute.
Yes, my fucking ass hurts.
I cried. I had to call my boss. Crying. So many shades of lame.
[I hate crying even when there's a good reason.]
Anyway, I did get the day off. I managed to limp my way to the bathroom to have that bath, but there was just no way to get the water hot enough, even if I did turn my skin a little red.
I soaked scalded.
Took some pills.
Drank some water.
Ate a banana.
Slept some more.
I feel a little better.
Thank god I kept the pain meds I was prescribed after I had my tonsils out this spring.
I'd be far less itchy now, but in oh so much pain.
If you're going to the store, bring me back some benadryl?
I'll be here, loopy out of my gourd.
