I am in agony! AGO-NEE I say!!
My ankle has been absolutely killing me, and I've been gimping around thinking
"Gee, I wore my boots the other day and boy howdy did it cripple me!"
And then I was looking through my Archives and saw mention of a sore ankle and I realized that I had completely forgotten about the dreaded TENDONITIS!
Or however you spell it.
All I know is that the pain is unbelievable and I want to chop my foot off at the ankle.
Heard "Sealed With a Kiss" on the radio this morning, and all I could think about was 1973 and I would got over to Melanie's house and we would listen to her single of that song over and over and just WEEP!
I used to just have Monty sleeping by my head, and then Milo started to sleep by my head (mostly because he doesn't want Monty to be anywhere Monty wants to be), and the other morning I woke up and Baldrick was sleeping by my head!
We seem to be moving inexorably towards all four of them just sleeping in a giant tower on my face and having done with it.
Been reading Gregory's site and I got to 18 December and thought "That's my Da's birthday. That's the day he went into the hospital and he never came out again."
And I just lost it.
I'm getting very boring.
