post surgical feelings...

i had my first bout ever with kidney stones last week and it honestly lives up to everything you might have heard people say. mine unfortunately evolved into a kidney/urinary tract infection and i am all but down for the count. it's been a real slow recovery so i've been doing everything i can to see the positives in each day that passes. i can't afford to become discouraged as i don't want to re-visit depression, or for that matter any of the potential ugly and dangerous side effects of what usally follows.
so far i've lost a lot of sleep and i'm trying real diligently to make up for that during the day. i'm out on medical leave from work until further notice because i am not very mobile at all. the medical team has me on several commercial grade pain killers and antibiotics, most of which leave me nauseous and exhausted and that makes for some real slow days.
i've fortunately been able to pass quite a bit of time on my laptop, trying to prop myself up at just the right angle to withstand too much pain. please do me a favor and comment/write/shout-out if you have a minute so it helps give me something to focus on for the time being. even though there are so many things to find on the internet, it's also become such a melting pot that sometimes can seem endless and i want to try and keep my computer time somewhat productive/meaningful.

i need to get some rest but in case you're wondering, i'm spinning the following at present:
keane - under the iron sea
sherwood - summer ep
until june - 2006 demo

'nite.
