Mad? I'll show you mad.

Interesting thing I've learned recovering from my holiday gift to myself. I get pissed off when I'm in pain. I can keep my sense of humor when I'm sick or joke at stress. But if I'm in pain for any length of time, I get mad. Very mad. Currently I've had to restrain myself from placing my fist in a nurse's face. I realize she is there to help me, however her lack of ability & organization, bad attitude and her lecture to my child set my teeth on edge.

It is silly really, or it would be if I was in the mood to laugh. I have developed a bladder infection as a result from surgery. This means on top of coping the pain of 4 incisions, it hurts to pee. It hurts not to pee. It hurts to lay on my side. It hurts to lay on my back. It hurts to stand. It hurts to cough. It hurts to sit. Simply, it FUCKING HURTS.

I wanted to start writing again, but I did not want to lead with this subject. However it is the thing that is consuming my mind at this time. I'll be back when I feel less like reaching out and choking someone.

You've talked me down from most of my anger. That doesn't mean that if I see her on the street I won't make her flinch. After all, it's only 'S' nice.
