Well, on top of the fact that I’ve been damned unmotivated to post, I’m now typing (ish) while wounded.
A big heavy window fell on my right hand.
I have 9 stitches on my “naughty” finger.
I type for a living.
I drive a stick shift.
I’m frickin’ RIGHT HANDED.
I have a Franken-finger just in time for Halloween.
I spent 5 hours in the ER, surrounded by people that sounded like they had the plague.
I got NO PAIN MEDS. Just ibuprofen and a couple of worthless Tramadol. (Fuckin’ “opioid epidemic”).
UGH.
So sorry for your injury! I’ve never heard of Tramadol. I just looked it up and see it’s listed as an opioid. But it doesn’t work? I unfortunately get kidney stones, so I’m always curious what they give now for pain since they’re being so careful. I hope you mend well. – Marty

I almost didn’t go to urgent care … except it wouldn’t stop bleeding.
