Back in the USA & wired together

eating an everything bagle with sun dried tomato cream cheese, listening to Democracy Now, coming over probably one the best college radio stations in this little place called Seattle. learning how to type in a 4 and 1 pattern...right hand is really only good for one finger, while the left is good for about four of them...thumb is kinda finicky.

so the official count, four factures, busted the right wrist, now a few wires and a screw hold it together, the left forearm got some attention with a new plate, while a hairline facture in the elbow is more annoying than concerning, and to finish off the cocktail, the kneecap is now being held together by a "H" pattern of wires...mix all, place in cast and brace, and let simmer in the absence of nicotine as it aint good for bones that be healing.

accidents are annoying, there really isn't any logic to them...afterall, if there was, they wouldnt be would they? this all happened as I was preparing to pack and organize my departure from PA..variety of factors,ego, lazyness, and perhaps anxiety caused a miscalculation as I was climbing around the loft beams. took a mis-step, thinking I would land on my feet, the knee and arm took the brunt in a rolling fashion, and there we are.

will be in Seattle for the next few months, as doctors and physical therapy makes more sense in this neck of the woods. have defered SF until the fall.

taking time debating whether I am american or not...am leaning towards the other side, might just be the knee, but none the less, am exposing the brain to americana, catching up on movies, writing a bit, depends on pain quite frankly, reading a bit, and catching up with old friends.

for the most part that is the short and sweet...will write more soon.
