So, wow. How much shit has changed in the few days since I posted last?

For the moment, Prop 8 is going to be ignored. I just cannot deal with the stupidity and hatred, so I refuse to think about it.

Went to the neurosurgeon yesterday, and he (thankfully) wants to try some more conservative therapies first. I have appts for pain management and physical therapy to start. He was awesome, and I absolutely adored Dr. Bethel.

Despite the good news, have had three absolutely shitty pain days in a row, including today. I am on so many drugs, and they are barely scratching the surface.

I am so overwhelmed by Obama's victory. I had hope, but I was terrified. The thought of 4 years of McCain/Palin doing a dance on my rights scared the fuck out of me. Obama's not perfect, but he makes me feel like there's hope. Like maybe we'll get somewhere. *crosses fingers* I think my favorite moment was watching Steven Colbert cry and try to cover it. It just said so much about what I was feeling.

Now, I will attempt to do work. Ew.
