Post two

I think I like Blogger--it feels more like I'm typing in a vacuum than when I post to my LiveJournal, since the community is really LJ's strongest feature, but I guess that's okay, they're not really the same thing. LJ has always seemed like a group of friends; BlogSpot feels more like self-publishing.

I started this blog on day two of being laid up in bed due to a bite by a copperhead snake. Now on day three, slight progress has been made in healing of my foot, swollen from knee the bite spot on my left pinky toe. I still can't really stand up or even sit up, since lowering my foot from its elevated position causes it to hurt like mad.

Getting to be a total bum and lie in bed all day is great, but I'd like to be able to get from here to the bathroom without assistance soon. It's good to have goals.
