I keep starting entries, and then forgetting them. Go me. Shoulder is still sore, though has scaled down from the "Fuck, OW!" stage, and has moved into the "Damn, that's annoying" phase. I'm told that this is where it may well remain for the next 2-3 weeks. In a week or so, I should be able to begin more exercises to strengthen the muscles around it. I just have to remember to take it easy, and go slow. Well, shit. I suck at that. Have been working on stretches, to help unknot the muscles a little at a time. Fucking hate the way it tightens towards the end of the day. I keep wanting to pop online at night, when some of my friends who I haven't caught up with in forever (looks pointedly at [livejournal.com profile] hederahelix), but by the time I get home, my shoulder's tight and achy, and I just want to pop my drugs and sleep. Maybe if I take my Naprosyn later today, I'd be able to tough it out for a couple of extra hours. Especially in the aforementioned case, I really miss having someone outside of the immediate storyline to bounce shit off of. (Cari's stuck smack in the middle of some of the immediate stuff that Jess and I are working on, so she's a co-author, not just a sounding board.)

Had a nice day off, though my family is going to drive me batshit. The puppy is barking like a little motherfucker, not unusual for, well...puppies. However, it's driving my grandmother crazy, which she in turn passes on by being a surly little senior citizen. Mom is ready to strangle her. Also, possibly ready to strangle Dad, whose job search seems to be stalled. The man needs to take a job somewhere. Anywhere, really. At least mom applied at PetSmart, for fuck's sake. I'd like to see her fill out the Ikea application we brought home--I think she'd do well working in the food area or even in the play area.

I'm trying very hard to kind of distance myself from my families problems, mainly because I like my health. I will not allow myself to stress into another bout of pneumonia. But damn, they're all asking for a slap upside the head sometimes.

Now, I will go back to working, because really, my life is boring. *shrug* I'm perfectly okay with that, though. I like boring. Boring makes me happy.

But before that, I have a link for all my American friends who hate Bush. The other day, I heard that with Dean bowing out, Nader is considering another run this year. We all know how that turned out last time. So, rather than split the liberal vote this time, we'd like a united front. If you feel the same, go to this site, and let Mr. Nader know.
