took a nap, feel slightly more human now

definitely gonna try to get to bed right after Power Hour if I can, though, I feel like I've been super out of wack today and need to give the bod some rest from my shenanigans

I didn't quite make it through Power Hour, even!

I got to about 7:40 PM and bowed out because I was so sore and lethargic, then went to bed and slept solid until about 2 AM. At that point I got up to drink some water and decided to lay down and ice my chest a bit and then went to bed again after that, sleeping through to 8 AMish. It was a lot of sleep! I'm feeling much better now, though, it just kinda all caught up with me yesterday.

Still gonna take it easy, I do have some chores I wanna do but they're minor, and I think I'm gonna crack into the frozen soup supply Masque made for me to have as my dinner later.

Had the spontaneous thought this morning that webcomics used to be a not insignificant part of my daily routine and now I could not even tell you what ones, exist

I did try to pick Gunnerkrigg back up a few years ago and just, didn't enjoy it anymore

I assume places like Penny Arcade are still updating but I dislike that type of content these days, please no more loud men in my nerd stuff

I am having some Surgery Complications (I did e-mail my surgeon; not an emergency but also extremely uncomfortable, will wait for response tomorrow when office opens) and am grumpy and in pain so I tried to distract myself with some art! I drew the D&D group each raising a glass (or equivalent) and it was a fun little low stress piece

things checked on and fixed!

spoiled gross details:

► Show Spoiler

my body decided to wayyyyy overdo it and produce almost half a pound of serous fluid that had to be drained. My surgeon drained the excess fluid and I have meds + some instructions to hopefully keep it from continuing to happen, but if I need to go in for drainage again I can. Hopefully I don't have to, but I'm just glad to have a solution because DEAR GOD that was more miserable than the entire rest of my surgery/healing so far, I felt like a bloated tick

I'm home now and got a tasty coffeedrank, which I am drinking, and I should probably ponder a food? maybe?
