The Weekend

YUP it's about that time! Gotta head on home pretty soon! This weekend had been pretty fun and relaxing. I did absolutely NOTHING! No chores, no laundry no nooottthhiinng except eat and play video games of course! I hung out with Alice, saw my dad, watched some movies and bonded with Andre. He sure is good at video games! I knew he would grow up to be a gamer, I told him so when he was a baby and I had him on my lap while I was playing World of Warcraft! We played Little Big Planet all weekend it was fun. The best part was when I taught Andre the importance of being a good sport and not screaming when he lost because you have to be happy when other people win. So the next time I won he said "Im glad you won" WHAT A CUTIE! 

I went to a party on Friday that was super duper awkward... yeaaah. Check out my instagram for pics of the weekend! I'm kind of angry right now because I've been trying to sleep for the past two hours but I couldnt because Andre was being loud and he refused to go to bed. By the time he finally went to sleep I had tossed and turned so much that I just got up and now I'm on my computer!! My mom and I are going for a walk around some lake in 4 hours so I should go to sleep soon. Can't wait to go home! I sure do miss my kitty. 

Here's the trailer to Wreck it Ralph. Looks pretty alright I guess. 

Vacation: Week Three

Well well well, here we are. Today begins the last week of my "vacation." I saw the doctor today and I told him about my leg pain. He put me on bed rest for the next few days and then he wants me to start physical therapy. I dunno about you, but I just can't sit around doing nothing. It's not in my nature. I mean, I love a good nap and I like sleeping in and I'm not good at cleaning my room but these past two weeks have just been pretty bad for me because Im NOT a lazy peroson! People on the outside looking in are always like "DUDE you're SO lucky to not have to work and you get to sleep all day and do nothin!" Well, I don't feel lucky at all! I'd switch lives with you in a heart beat! First of all, during the first week I was in a lot of physical pain. Second week, when I was able to walk around, I felt super restless and I just didn't know what to do with myself so I just cleaned and watched TV. That's been my existence for the past week. I just feel so... useless! It's not a good feeling for me, especially cuz Im Mexican and Mexicans are NOT lazy! But, thankfully, my summer classes start soon and I will be back to work next Friday!

So, I'm visiting my family this weekend in order to relax and let my back heal. Since I'm visiting my mom and she doesn't see me much, she always takes good care of me when I come over! Hopefully I can make it all weekend because a lot of the time when I come visit I can't stand being here for more than a couple of days. It has nothing to do with my family or their apartment, it's just that it's always so hot in here! Also, there's never anything to do because everyone is out doing their own thing... but I brought my lap top this time so I'm ready! Also, I miss my kitty :( He's my snuggle buddy!!

I don't want to seem ungrateful about what I said before about not liking having time off... I DO enjoy  not working, it's just that, I've been so worried about my leg pain that I really haven't had time to enjoy it yet I guess. Also, I feel like if people see me out and about they're gonna think that I'm milking it and that I don't NEED to be taking time off of work. I dunno. I'm rambling now! I sure do miss my bed right now. I'm on my mom's couch, like good ol times lolol. SIGH. I think that for this last week I will try to enjoy myself a little more. Cuz I know that when I'm back at work I'm going to be wishing SUPER HARD that I wasn't!!!

Vacation: Week Two

Hey! So, FYI, I'm currently not on THAT much medication! Woohoo!!

So, I'm able to walk around now with almost zero pain! But, there's still some pain. It doesn't hurt to get up and  lay down which is good! But my back starts hurting if I stand for more than 10-15 minutes. Also, and this is what is freaking me out the most, is that my left leg still kind of hurts :( I wont know for sure what the extent of the damage is until I am able to sit for more than 30 minutes at a time. You see, my leg always hurt the most when I was sitting. But now, it hurts only when I stand up. That is kind of freaking me out because what if there is permanent nerve damage! And my leg hurts forever! I'm seeing the doctor next week so I will let him know. Hopefully, my back is just readjusting and the pain i feel is just due to my back not being properly healed yet. Either way, I am taking SUPER easy and resting a lot so I don't do any damage.

In other news, I talked to the doctor last week and he said that my recovery time would be 4-6 weeks! I was like WHAAAT?? I was expecting to return to work next friday but now I guess I wont be back for two weeks! Now that I'm not super drugged up and able to do things like walk outside, it's really starting to feel like a real vacation! I think that next week I'm going to go to San Marcos to visit the family. Yeah that sounds like a good time! We'll see how I feel though. WELL, time for a nap!
