So folks, remember GTL and t-shirt time? Well, it's physio time!!!
Yesterday was the first session with my favourite physiotherapist in the world. Seriously, if you ever need a great physio, let me know- I have ya covered! Anyways, she hooked me up to the "shocker", showed me some patellar tracking stuff and then I got to learn some new exercises. By new, I mean, I already know them, but they're new to my program now. I am so stoked!!! Shockingly my range of motion is good (I figured it would be as the specialist told me to bend it and stretch it to prevent a blood clot).
Next session tomorrow!
Remember I was having qualms about the taxi stuff? Whether to tip or not to tip. Well, I am not tipping. Now the dispatcher guesses it's me when I call... And the drives with the taxis have gotten quite hilarious. Yesterday a guy probably in his late 20s or early 30s picked me up. He asked if I lived there and pointed to the garage. No sir, I don't live in a detached garage. Then he asked if I lived in the "big house". Jeez guy. What do you think? No, I live in the trailer out back with the tarp on it. The remainder of the conversation was interesting. He wanted to know if I owned house (yes, I am a millionaire that has a beaten up VW Cabrio named Marley), what my parents do for work, and what I do for work. I think I managed to convert him from banking at RBC to WSCU- now if that isn't a good employee, I don't know what is. The taxi home was even more amusing. Different gentleman this time, and the cab was tricked out! We're talking black lights, flashing lights, sunroof, the whole 9 yards. He lost points for not turning down the right street, but I forgave him.
It was a pretty productive day. Saw a friend who is moving downtown this weekend, had sushi (how I have missed sushi) and watched a lacrosse game. I am pretty happy that I had the surgery so fast, because I should be walking and getting back to a somewhat normal life by the end of May and that means awesomeness for the summer! And friend is trying to get me to move downtown..... I can't imagine being 29 and finally living in the city.... Maybe my life will be less Girls and more Sex in the City minus all the sex and fabulous handbags. It will probably be more like The Mindy Project- now to just become a doctor.....
