I had a very simple knee surgery this week. Simple as it was, it is extremely annoying to deal with post-surgery. I hate crutches. I hate compression stockings. I hate pain medication. I hate sleeping on my back with my leg on pillows. I hate feeling dizzy and nauseous. I hate being bothered with all this. The only upside is I do love anesthesia. What a great nap. Plus I have a really stellar mom who waited on me hand and foot.
Two days after surgery I had to go back to work. Blah. Well today I started feeling sorry for myself as it took me about 10-15 minutes just to descend my staircase and get to the car. I had to take a breather on the landing of the stairs and cry a little because I was frustrated. That is when I knew exactly what I had to do. Crutchie, from Newsies, got through mobs and jail. I could freaking get down the stairs! I promptly went to iTunes and downloaded the entire soundtrack and listened to some motivational Newsies on my way to work. Yes, I know it is so ridiculous but it made so much sense at the time.
