it has been ten days since i have been removed from the real world: work, news, life. i havent been a very graceful invalid. the constant pain, headaches and low grade fever keep me cranky and tired. i know that i suffer from a minor (and temporary, inshallah) injury, for which i am thankful. this does not stop me from feeling sorry for myself though. i know people who function well even when they are not physically feeling one hundred per cent. if only i was one of them. (perhaps this will be incentive to take better care of my body in the future..)
ten days is not a long time. and yet, my hibernation so far has left me reluctant to go back outside. i dont want to shed my pajamas, look in the mirror or have a conversation about anything more complicated than my next meal. this stems from the days before i fell i suppose.. whatever the reason for the fall and injury (assuming there is one of course), i am sure it was not meant to cause further retreat.
it has taken me 35 mins to type the two above paras. time to reward myself with painkillers.

hi girl,
i hope someone is pampering you. pamper yourself if at all possible. ice cream, shocolada, chick flicks, and other (non)-guilty pleasures.
flowers too.
love,
chi
out of curiousity, what's schocolada? sounds interesting... Meryam- you never mentioned this--
it's chocolate - pronounced in my strange reworking of the arabic accent. :)
