Odd & Itchy

I woke up this morning with 5 bite marks on my right upper arm. Ordinarily, I wouldn't really think twice about it and definitely not blog it except for the fact that they're in a cool "V" shape.

Most awesome, nature.

I commend you.

Rohan's playing Assasins Creed II and yelling at the tv. It's funny.

Did I mention...

- I had to take out my tongue ring for the operation and decided to permanently leave it out. I've had it in for a decade. Feels weird not having it anymore.
- I haven't had a cigarette since 2nd Feb.
- I'm actively seeking.
- I'm going to try my hand at a quick short to enter into a comp.
- I'm setting a 6 month deadline on my latest photography theme idea to hopefully force me to actually do it.
- I REALLY want to travel next year. Unfortunately I doubt I'll be able to do it. At least not until August at the earliest anyway because of work. And of course it depends on Rohan as well being able to.

God I'm so full.   We ended up at the Harbour View Hotel in The Rocks.  Rohan had a beer.  I had a french martini. we also had another half a dozen oysters kilpatrick. I don't think I'm going to be able to move for a while now.   

I'm very full

Rohan and I went to the fish markets today and ate our way through a dozen giant oysters, half a kilo of giant king prawns and copious amounts of delicious salmon and tuna sashimi.

I'm so stuffed right now.

We're now on our way to find a place with beer and a view.

The peeling has spread to my thumb and middle finger. Just what my fragile state of mind needed.

Finally

I finally worked myself up to going through the Franz Joseph Glacier photos. I knew there would be a lot that I would want to keep and upload, so knew it was going to be an arduous task... hence the avoiding of it.

But, the work is done and the uploading is happening. Huzzah!

Now, the rest of the trip! Which shouldn't be that much more since the next few days were in Queenstown snowboarding, so they were taken on Kapil's camera. And the rest of the trip wasn't photographically inspiring me, so not much taken.

I remember how nervous I was going up to the glacier top with the camera:

- forced myself to take only one lens. That too, one I wasn't very comfortable with.
- packed three 8Gb memory cards. "Just In case".
- two batteries only, making me nervous (I know, I was nuts).
- what if it was too bulky to go through caves with?

It was all good in the end. And I didn't need to change memory cards or battery. :o)

Just perfect

The allergic skin reaction I had to the first bandage they put on me has now resulted in massive skin peel on the finger. Awesome.

Just what I needed on top of already having to pumice my finger regularly since it's not able to get rid of its dead skin because it's not being used at all.

I wonder how much skin will be left by the end of all of this?

I'm getting so sick of not being able to do half the things in this world because of my finger being injured. It's getting really frustrating. And annoying.

Well, I just had my first ever facial.

OW!!!

But my skin hasn't glowed like this since 1985. A girl could get used to this. ;o)

Itemised

1. My finger hurts

2. My shoulders are massively in pain today - I'm guessing it's from a combination of using the sling all day yesterday and keeping my arm upright throughout the day and night.

3. It's finally sunk in that Pushing Daisies was axed. BOO!!!

4. I've finished Chuck season 1. BOO!!!

5. Eureka season 3 is on free to air. WOOHOO! I've put it on Series record on Foxtel IQ. I love you IQ.

6. Mum has convinced me to take the two weeks off that's been recommended to me by the doctors instead of being some sort of stuperhero and killing myself at work. Maybe even three, but that depends on my check ups. Considering my pain today, I'm realising how much of an idiot I'm being and am forcing myself to relax.

7. Rohan's left his laptop here so I'm downloading more Pushing Daisies. Makes me sad that it's a limited amount. :o(

8. My mum and brother took today off work to take care of me (mum's taken the week off) and they got me a yummy coffee and decadent toffee/coffee/chocolate cake-cream-thingy. Mmm...

9. My bedroom is really clean as I'd cleaned it for Diwali. Makes it nice in these annoying times as I'm not so frustrated at being bedridden.

10. I'm still waiting for part of Rohan's (very belated) birthday present to be delivered. I've just realised it was being delivered to work. DAMN! Got to work out how to get that now. Crap.

11. Need to get the other part of his present still, though can't really manage it now (stupid shop didn't keep it aside and sold out, so now waiting for re-delivery).

12. My index finger is out of commission. That would mean my camera click finger. BOO!!!

Grumbling

Add to Memories Tell a Friend

It's bad enough that my index finger hurts and is out of commission. But to not be able to use my left arm as much either because it's all swollen from my tetnus booster shoot is just plain ridiculous.

My brother keeps asking me "What?" as my finger sticks up in question mode. He'll randomly pause a movie and say "Yes, what is your question?". He's so funny.

Worst part is i'm all caught up with Eureka & Pushing Daisies and am soon going to finish Chuck Season 1. Got to find myself a new quirky show to fall in love with!

I had a late lunch yesterday, returning only minutes after going for lunch as I had a meeting a 3pm.

Meeting finished at about 3:50pm and we started to reset the meeting room back into two before leaving. Set up the tables, tucked in the chairs, pulled out the collapsible wall, got the tip of my right index finger crushed in a join. Oops.

It was a bit icky and required medical attention of the stitching variety as the tip of my finger had pulled away from my nail.

Fiona from Sport (as I'd been in a World Cup 2010 meeting) drove me to the medical centre after I was patched up in the first aid room (was recommended above Emergency for the lesser waiting time). After a twenty minute wait the doctor took a look at it by poking my finger and then wrote me a letter and sent me to.. Emergency as I had cut my nerve and would require microsurgery to repair it.

Off to Emergency I went and after a little wait, went in to the E.T area and had it looked at by a couple of doctors and was sent to get an xray just in case.

I have a small fracture on the tip of my finger.

Came back to E.T and they then gave me a tetnus booster shot as I vaguely remember my last tetnus shot having been in the early 00's (when my brother had been cleaning the storage room and stabbed his hand with a rusty nail so I went and got a sympathy shot with him).

They then gave me a local on my finger so that they could clean it up a little for me and clear out the fluid build up (some sort of "edema" sounding name - I'm terrible with medical terms). It was then bandaged up as I couldn't get a slot that night for surgery.

I'm now on my way back to the hospital to have surgery on my finger as they need to remove the nail to fix it up as I have a lacerated nail bed. Oops.

I'm a little nervous. But then again, I'm being knocked out for surgery. I think I'm allowed to be a little nervous.

My finger is really really numb and tingely. It's horrible. I don't know why it's still feeling like this. I guess I should be thankful it's not paining?

Rohan was impressed with the way I handled it all, saying I did better than grown men he's seen scream over a little cut. Go me! I'm a Rajput. That's how we roll. Brave and all that. ;o)

I can't believe how many meetings I'm attending and how much work I'm doing regarding the world cup next year. It's in June 2010!

Yay! Jena found my phone this morning. iHeart her.

I swear the first thing I'm going to do this afternoon will be syncing the phone to my laptop. Yes sirree. I sure will.

Hopefully.

Anyway, got lots going on at the moment.

Annoyingly enough, the birthday present I was getting for Rohan got "accidentally" sold out over the weekend, so I don't have anything for his birthday tomorrow.

So not impressed with the shop.

Especially as they only just got it in stock on Friday and were meant to have kept a copy aside for me to collect this afternoon. Poo poo heads.

I'm getting them to source it for me from elsewhere. I hate not having a present ready on the day. Now I'm going to be the crappy girlfriend. Ugh.
