Post-surgery

This honeymoon period before the nerve block wears off is really very pleasant. I can bend my knee and do my exercises without pain for the first time since... well, since I started doing them four months ago. Am assured that agony will commence eventually but the nurse who just came by said they'd proactively start me on pain killers. Am sharing a room with three quiet people (and not like the guy swearing down the hallway). Even the food was quite edible. So not bad at all.
