Bit buzzed, and sleepy.

A lot better than last night before going to bed.

 :wine: +   :rofl:  =  :zzz:

Ah, you have grasped Mathematics well, Lady Weeble.

The pictures make it easier!  :laugh:

Annoyed that my injured finger seems to be getting infected despite my precautions. Back I go to Urgent Care.  :facepalm2:

Have you been taking antibiotics for it?

Yes, 3x a day as ordered, and I use Neosporin on my dressings. Two things come to mind: The splint I got at the orthopedic appointment
is a boxy metal one that pinches, and it is wrapped with super-absorbent first aid tape (very much like crepe paper). The first splint I had
was a plastic helmet that covered the gauze pretty well to keep it dry, and did NOT squeeze my nail bed! Tomorrow I intend to ask about
returning to the original splint.  :viking:

I think they probably will put you on stronger antibiotics if your finger is getting infected despite taking antibiotics three times a day.

I remember when my mom's big toe got infected from a sand crack, they put her in the hospital and gave her IV antibiotics and then sent her home with more IV antibiotics.  Cipro was the one they sent her home with.

I hope it doesn't end up in a hospital stay! Thanks for the warning...  :hide:

^ I haven't been on much lately, but it sounds like you had a nasty mishap (as much as I'd love the details - it sounds yucky, so will pass!!!) But hope it is on the mend soon x

Very well rested. Between yesterday evening and this morning I think I got about 11 or 12 hours of sleep. I haven't done that since last time I was real sick 2.5 or 3 years ago.

Groggy from waking up and a little sinus headache to boot.
