Walking funny again

I got my second set of Killer Death Injections of Doooom this morning.

As before, I pinched myself awfully hard during each one to distract myself from the pain-and-wrongness sensation. (Last time, the welts I made by pinching took four days to fade. Aren't you glad you now know this detail?) Also as before, I have the anaesthetic effect over much of my foot without benefit of actual anaesthesia. Last time, this effect took about a day to fade.

There are dark purplish dots at the entry points where the needle went in. Those haven't faded from last time, so now I look like I have measles or something. If they all stay for seven weeks I won't be able to resist taking a photo of the resultant mess. :-)

If I concentrate really hard I can walk almost-normally with my partially numb feet.

Saving my energy

From a comment I made elsewhere:

Sometimes I think I got so good at "saving my energy for something I care about" that I forgot to find anything to care about.
