Energizer Bunny

I'm like the Energizer Bunny in that I keep going... and going... and going...

Life has been crazy, with no end in sight. Work has been incredibly stressful. I've been working crazy hours. I really do just work for the weekend. It's a sad state of affairs.

Of course with stress comes pain. I've been keeping my stimulator turned up as high as I can tolerate it, but I can't sleep at night with it on high enough to block the pain signals, so sleep hasn't been coming very easily either.

I took Benedryl last night and got some sleep (although medicine induced sleep is never very restful), and when I woke up this morning my ankle felt almost disconnected. It's hard to explain, but it was like there was space in the joint. This happens sometimes after I take something that knocks me out, but I always hate it :(

Still going...
