Having a sore tail-bone (specifically, a bruised coccyx I got from sitting down hard on Mac's men's room's floor last Thursday), I decided to stay home, resting, this past weekend. It hurts pretty much all the time, but it's worse when I sit and slightly less worse when I lie in my bed on my back.

I canceled my trip to Brattleboro, Vermont. I couldn't imagine two four-hour-plus drives within forty-eight hours.

I watched movies (To Catch a Thief, Inside Llewyn Davis, Runner, Runner, binge-watched Daredevil (both seasons) and the first season of Jessica Jones. I enjoyed it all. In between that screen-work, I played a lot of Sudoku and read emails.

So, a screen-dominated weekend.

I didn''t have much of an appetite, nor much of a thirst, and not even a desire to play (I declined available playing options).

I'm happy to report that every morning the ache has been a little less.


Today, I did some grocery shopping and cashed my jury duty check.

But the weekend has left me empty, with nothing really to talk about.

Diet Comment
I've been eating - and drinking - very lightly since Thursday. It's due to low appetite during my convalescence from the pain in my ass. I find my weight on a radical, and therefore, presumably brief, down-trend. I suspect my next posting will include a gain.

  1. I am starting to worry ( a little) about how little you are eating. I doubt that you take in more that one thousand calories per day and probably less. I understand that pain takes away your appetite but this predates the pain. Love you

  2. My appetite is back - I ate and hydrated enough today (Monday) to gain weight, and it is going to be the same for Tuesday and probably going forward. You are right, after Thursday my eating has been sparse, but that is over as of the end of the weekend.
