Ups & Downs
Had a fellow wrestle my pants off Wednesday. Then we decided to skip sex after he declined to use a condom. He didn't try to argue with me, give me any attitude, or coax me into his way of doing things. Just said he wasn't into condoms and if I was, "let's get dressed and go get dinner". I still have the bruises from the wrestling part of the "foreplay". Sigh. We won't be wrestling again.
Made an unplanned trip to the emergency room Friday night at 5pm. Was washing dishes as part of my labor trade for tango lessons and broke a glass bowl - right into my left hand. Tango-Crush took me to the hospital and waited with me. Brought his knitting. Then distracted me by busting on me, which he does quite often. He was way into the stitches the doc put into my hand. He leaned in to see better and asked questions. I couldn't watch... He did let me hold his hand while it was underway. I whimpered when they shot me up with lidocaine... it wasn't pretty. Then they popped me with a tetanus shot.
He took me out dancing after the hospital cut me lose. We arrived at the Contra Dance at the "half-time" break. My hand was splinted to keep it immobile. Nicked a tendon... will see a specialist Monday. Asked TC to put a barret in my hair (I couldn't pull it back) & to tie my shoes. I was feeling quite incompetent. He isn't really the nurturing type. More like the practical type... but he was there for me when I needed someone.
I'm left handed. The next two weeks are going to be challenging. May have to pay my hair dresser to wash my hair for me... I'm slowly realizing what I really need both hands for.
But I'm lucky I wasn't alone when this happened. And I'm not going to worry about what "might be" as far as the injury until I see the next doc.
