Post-clipping: I’m tired, miserable, uncomfortable, and utterly bored, please help.

On Monday August 10th I had a craniotomy to clip an aneurysm on my right ophthalmic nerve.

Now I’m back at home and going slightly crazy. My hair is matted and disgusting, the headaches while expected and not nearly as bad as I thought fluctuate in location, intensity, and type, no way I arrange my body feels comfortable, and my default activity, reading, just makes the headaches worse.

I’ve got five weeks left of forced recuperation and FMLA, how do I stay sane?

Any and all advice greatly appreciated.

Today the good guys won!! (Movie theater edition)

Went to the Odyssey today and unbelievably (although it really wasn’t) this pair of rude as fuck parents sat their kid, maybe six years old, down between them and turned on a fucking iPad.

No seriously, they brought a six year old to an R rated movie and thought no one would notice the kid watching peppa pig or some shit on YouTube just because the kid was wedged between them.
Well I absolutely noticed and immediately left the theater to have a chat with the manager. The manager waited about five minutes, probably in hopes that they’d turn it off as soon as the movie started.

Spoiler alert: they didn’t.

But I am thrilled to report the manager made them leave when they refused to turn it off!!! We won!! A victory against the invasion of bad, entitled parents and their inability to properly parent.
