Sleepy. That's mostly what I feel.

I had to have the general anesthesia, which was cool with me because I know the drill. And it was the shortest procedure I've ever had, so the nausea and achy throat were minimal.

Right now my knee is bandaged with what appears to be about 400 layers of fabric. I'm supposed to watch for swelling but I have no idea how I'd know.

But there is only vague pain, and hobbitt just got home with the medications. The pharmacist said I should start, right now, with the maximum dosage of oxycodone. What? I have a pretty high threshold for pain, and I have no intentions of breakdancing, so I think I'll hold off on that.

And now for some more sleep.
