the day after (lyn)

I wake up and feel like I've been punched in the face.  Not by some big heavyweight, but maybe a 100-pound girl.   But the pain is dull and I haven’t swelled.  Not bad.

My only trip outside is to Agata to stock up on some easy-to-eat foods, ones that require little chewing. Foods such as:

• 0% Fage with fruit.
• Cooked Alla Bolognese pasta.  I rarely eat pasta but tonight I have a good excuse; it comes doctor-recommended.
• Pureed broccoli (this will be a first).
• Sliced nova and scallion cream cheese.
• Thin-cut prosciutto.
• Chocolate mousse. I haven’t bought this in probably two years, but the consistency makes it easy to eat (for one night, I’ll forget it has a million calories).

I’m set.  Stocked fridge.  The paper.  A good book.  TV. My computer.  A phone.  And even some DVD screeners of some just-released or soon-to-be released movies.  Pretty much all I need.
