mtbc: maze K (white-green)
[personal profile] mtbc
Sometimes I cannot sleep: my principal stressors are reduced but not yet resolved. I see well in the dark. At around 2am last night I was up and about downstairs with the lights off. We have been enjoying The Haunting of Hill House (2018) in which strange spectral figures slowly approach along dark corridors; it is preferred that we have good lighting in the drawing room for watching it.

With having injured my back on Thursday I was amused to realize that perhaps it is good that I did not bump into either of my children last night as I shuffled slowly along the dark hallway with my crooked gait: after yesterday evening's viewing, for a moment they may have been appropriately horrified.

I will recover fine in the end. I am a little better from day to day and I am used to nursing my back, it is not a new kind of injury for me. Thursday evening's analgesics offered negligible relief so I did not bother with any yesterday. Needless to say I shall be skipping workouts for a couple of days yet. I hope to be fairly mobile by Monday morning when I am to speak at a symposium in Dundee. [personal profile] mst3kmoxie will kindly drive me in for it if need be.

Update: [personal profile] mst3kmoxie did drive me in and the talk went fine. Once I got back home I was very glad to rest on a comfortable chair in the evening.
