Gah. In an earlier post I mentioned that I had an ingrown toenail and that it had gotten badly infected. I also mentioned that I had to go in to see the podiatrist today to have him take a look at it and cut out the offending ingrowns. Well, he did. Fortunately he did it under anesthetia (the injections for which weren’t the most fun thing in the world), and was done before I realized he had actually finished. Now I’m just sitting at home, both toes bandaged up, my feet propped up on my entertainment center, and having a caffeine-free Diet Coke before I consider going to bed. I wish I could say this was the end of the foot treatments, but unfortunately the doctor wants me to keep soaking them twice a day, leading up to a followup appointment next Tuesday. Gods, I hope this all works out fine.
I did myself and my parents a favor today and signed up for Netflix. I had been meaning to for a while, but with the new TV and DVD player, I figured it was about time for me to get onboard. Granted, there is a Blockbuster Video and a Hollywood Video near my house, but they tend to be out of my way and the former is a bitch to get in and out of. This just works out nicer for everyone involved… especially when Mom and Dad have their own sign-on and queue. Now I don’t have to worry about what movies to get them. Ah, well… at least there’re enough movies that I’ve been interested in that I have shoved into my queue. I should be good for a while.
Anyway, I guess I should be considering bed at this point. Fun fun…
Tasty!
