Small personal update on myself/ Otakon preparations.
Things to prepare for Otakon
Meier Link:
~nothing! OMG, is done!
Szayel:
~ wig, still needs to be styled
~ repair white glasses frames
~ re-tape boot design onto boots
Prep:
~ rent a van big enough for 6 people + all our stuff
~ confirm with (harass) the hotel to make sure they have all our amenities in the room
~ find a replacement roommate for the one we lost (that or magically produce $100+ out of my ass for the van rental)
Personal status update
Gravity, yes it does still work. For some reason my body felt the need to test this theory on Monday night/Tuesday morning.
How did it test this you ask? Why by convincing my right leg that it would be an awesome time to relapse into uselessness and buckle out from under me.
As a result, all 150+ pounds of my horsey self fell right onto my bad hip. Yes, literally right onto the hip, resulting in a foot long bruise going from the middle of my lower back to the center of my hip/ass area.
This also resulted in an outpatient hospital visit where they politely informed me that 'I was lucky, and I only managed to heavily bruise my hip bone and not break anything.'
According to them, I should be ok in about a week, meaning by next Monday at the earliest, probably. Until then I've been instructed to remain off the injured area and to move as little as possible. ((For those of you that know me, you will know that this is going to drive me crazy.)) And for those of you who dont know, just try and see if you can only sit on one half of your ass for an entire week, sleep only on your stomach, and generally only get up to use the loo. Its not fun kids, no it is not.
So if by any chance you were in any doubt that gravity was working, it is.
Don't test it, trust me the gravity is still turned on.
P.S. If on the off chance you see my online and I don't respond, I am either zonked out on pain meds or too damn tired and sore to bother reaching for the laptop. Deal with it, I'll get to you eventually.
If you're contacting me about the Otakon room, e-mail me. You're much more likely to get a quick response.
