Post-Op Day 40 (MET RICK JAMES)

DAY 40  (Halfway There Guys!)

Pain Level  -  1/10
Discomfort Level  -  2/10
Craving  -  Tylenol / Advil / a new brain

I JUST WANT TO START OFF BY SAYING... RICK JAMES GAVE ME A RIDE TO THE BUS STATION IN HIS CAB TODAY... HES SUPPOSEDLY FROM INDIA AND MUCH YOUNGER NOW THAN EVER BEFORE... I GUESS COKE DEFINITELY IS ONE HELL OF A DRUG!

wow! i can't believe we are already at day 40... its been half the recovery time in our 80 days of this journey already!
i feel like it was last week i was just getting ready for this surgery to begin, getting shaven and eating all that food the night before.. I'm sitting on the bus making my way back to Toronto and all i can think about it how far we've come and how short of time it feels like it has been!
in a sort of sick way i miss being in the pain i was in.. i miss being or feeling helpless and uncomfortable.. maybe its because deep down I'm not used to feeling completely helpless and in distress due to my past football years and tough skin, as well as high pain tolerance.
or maybe its just me missing being taken care of lol!
all i know is a part of me is starting to dislike the reality of the fact that my life is getting back to normal now and I'm getting out of the "just gout out of surgery" mode I've been in for 40 days!

this weekend has been an awesome experience regardless, feeling things i haven't felt in a while and noticing things like lack of energy etc that i haven't noticed this much since surgery happened.

I'm overly tired though so this is going to be a short blog as i have an opportunity to sleep for a solid 6 hours without much interruption while listening to thunderstorm sounds from my iPod while i sleep peacefully :)
(yeah I'm that kind of guy by the way)
