Revenge of Zombie Foot!

I had a nice entry planned out yesterday, but unfortunately my first foray into making a Yahoo! photo album became an exercise in frustration and ultimate patience. You suck so bad, Yahoo! !

Anyway, without any more ado, ZOMBIE FOOT!

That's a damn lot of pictures of a creepy foot. The descriptions pretty much explain everything. I forget at this point which pictures I took to show progress or just, like, a change in the flash and composition. Also, Zombie Foot is fine now. I forgot to include a follow-up picture. Just assume it looks like my other, normal foot. There's still a little dark spot where the impact was, though.

Also! These pictures are thanks to my wonderful boyfriend, who got them off my camera and onto a CD for me. He's so useful. Like, say I really wanted to identify a model flying craft for geektactular (but possibley important - you never know!) reasons, he could instantly provide me with that information. This is not a complete list of reasons.

In other news, I am greatly concerned with the state of my body. It's all ... puffy. My face and various limbs seem far more ... round. Than before. Which I've noticed only in the past week. At first I was alarmed, because I thought I had gained a million pounds, and was ready to lay the blame at the thyroid (it's at about this time after the procedure that the whole slowly down thing is supposed to "kick in"). But, I don't know. Today I noticed that my hands seemed puffy. The ring that I occasionally wear and is typically loose left a pretty good mark when I took it off. That's ... something going on. Hopefully not something Chocolate Factory-esque. My mother suggested that it might be from sodium due to eating out and taking in most of my food of late. I've been drinking lots of water today. It still could be the thyroid. I hope it goes away.

In other body news, I've been getting a lot of muscle cramps, mostly in the hip area, but also in my shoulders and back. As mayhem will tell you, I am Bendy like a circus freak. So, in any given day, I arrange my limbs in many ways that most people typically wouldn't. But they're not unusual motions for me. But for the past couple weeks, I'll do something, swing my leg up, or stretch my arms, and some random muscle around a joint will seize up. The worst yet was today when I was setting up my Brand New Christmas Present DVD Player (note to above discussion: presents). I sat down into a somewhat tight space, and my entire right hip cramped. It wasn't really painful as much as it was hilariously and alarmingly incapacitating.

It occurs to me that this started soon after my birthday. I think my body is now officially Old. Or perhaps I could ask my useful boyfriend if I have some tropical disease. Or, I had blood work done today, so maybe that will turn up something.

Also, I need a ... internet money card. Thing.
