Weeks of epic suckage
12 years ago
General
The Sunday after Thanksgiving, the head gasket on my truck went out catastrophically after we started it up after sitting for 4 days.
Waiting to see if they are going to fix my old truck or if I have to start a new lease on a 2010 Cascadia and figure out how to get to Lowell AR if I do to pick it up.
They are not going to fix my old truck. Too much money for what it's worth they say. But they offered me a 2010 Cascadia with an APU and sideboxes for $40, 000 and a credit of $20, 000 off that for what I had in the old truck. So $220 / week for 2 years. Of course now I have to get to Lowell, AR to get it come Monday.
Have I ever mentioned how much I hate winter and snow? Well, I do. I just fell down the outside stairs on our back porch, landing on my right hip, which already hurts like hell, twisting my neck and right shoulder, and banging my left elbow apparently too. And I still have to go back outside later to find more of my truck stuff in the garage before tomorrow when I'm supposed to be taking a fucking bus to Lowell, AR, which may not happen now because of the snow coming down and will probably delay me even more getting back to work. I already packed clothes and find I need a second bag just to carry the neccessary other crap I'll need until I can get home again, and that includes none of the food I usually take on the road with me.
I managed to fall again about an hour ago. My right hip and butt is so swollen I'm afraid the skin is going to explode, and it hurts so bad I can barely sit. I can't get comfortable and I don't know what to do.
At ER now. Intense pain. Feels like my hip will explode
Fyremane Foxx postibg fir cal. He'd judt been taken in to xray.
Xrays show possible fracture or chip under the head of the hipbone. CT scan coming up. Morphine is not working too good for pain either. Feels like liquid fire in my hip and butt
Well having a CT scan done was almost as bad as the Xrays earlier. But much faster.
Nothing broken
Can't sleep. Several patches of skin have turned into what I would call blood blisters. Going to not be a fun day today.
Pic of my hip, in my scraps, because I don't know if FA will take it down or not. It's pretty ugly to see.
