So Many Hurts

perkynihilistI have too many injuries. I'm at the point where I'm re-bruising bruises and tearing open half-healed scabs. It's not cool.
And all the mind-work in the world can't hold back the onslaught of triggers all the pain is causing.
I fell in the bathroom this morning. Hair-related. *sigh* And it was a windmilling, people downstairs asking what was that crash, full embrace of the tile, wipe-out. Hip. Shoulder. Knee. So much contact.
This is the first day I was feeling better after getting sun stroke on Sunday. In Canada we call it sunstroke. Apparently it's sun poisoning in the US. Either way, the fever, hypothermia, fever, vomiting, headache... misery capped off by a raging sunburn took me out. And I fainted with it and got a nasty rug burn on my elbow when I went down.
I'm so used to not being able to participate I forget to stop, rest and recover now that I can go overly-long without my body stopping me. It's like 2004 again. But, ow.
So there. Whining over. Time to nap, eat something nourishing. Take another dose of Advil and remember that this too shall pass.
