Time for me to shake up the format a little. The Pain heading is gone now, because I’m not in any noticeable pain anymore. Also going the way of the dodo is the sleep heading, because I’m sleeping without any problem as of late. If anything, sleep is too easy. Only big news is that tomorrow after work is the two-week check-up. Now as I’ve said before, any time that I have to head to the doctors here, I’m gonna get a little nervous because they don’t exactly treat me gently. Luckily I think all they’re going to do is replace the bands holding me shut. I think. I hope. Who knows, I might come home in unbearable pain again. Beats me.
Anyway, here’s the rest of the update…
Diet: Looks like I’ve gotten my weight to stabilize finally. Looks like learning how to make delicious, delicious shakes and smoothies along with decent soups in a blender has got my calorie intake at a pretty good level. Add it some oatmeal and mashed potatoes and we’re doing just fine. It’s not as good as actual food, but it’s much better than tasteless rice porridge and cream soup everyday. Now if I eat cream soup, it’s almost a nice change.
Mood: This is a little iffy… now I’m completely fine in most scenarios, but the other night we went out with some friends to the local bar around here. When we were in there, I saw someone who vaguely resembled the guy who hit me. I was immediately taken with the urge to go over there and just start swinging away. The problem was that it wasn’t the guy. That guy had nothing to do with it… he just sort of vaguely resembled the guy. All that ends up happening is I let all the anger and rage come bubbling up to the surface and kind of ruin my night. Nothing happened… it just surprised me that all those emotions came up at that time.
Justice: So we’ve heard nothing lately. At this point, it’s time for another round of discussions with the embassy trying to get them to put some pressure on the police around here. At this point, I kind of assume that they’re not looking for him. I have absolutely nothing to back that up with, but that’s my feeling. The last conversation with the detective in charge came about a week ago at this point. Since then… silence. I bet if I let this drop, there’s a good chance that nothing will ever come of it. Although I bet if I kicked at couple hundred bucks at the cop, he could pick him up within minutes. But to hell with that…
