A quick story explaining yet another reason why I am so happily in love with ![[info]](http://p-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) jnanacandra... For those few that don't know H has hearing aids. Over the years I've developed an international Andrei sign language system. It is not really grounded in any form of formal sign language beyond maybe years of pantomime. I've gotten very good at conveying concepts and topics. For example this morning I successfully conveyed: "You know, I realize the baby is still asleep, but as soon as you turn on the shower, he's going to wake up. Don't worry, I'll watch him." None of this was voiced, only Andrei-signed. And I can assure you, she understood. Granted, my signing has gotten complex enough that I often go into non-sensical but realistic looking signs. Today, I went into a sign after the above concept. H looked at me, nodded, swung her hips around and did a dance move that could only be described as a sideways froog. I gave her a thumbs up. She'd countered my non-sensical mime with some of her own... And we'd agreed on our non-communication. That was awesome. She hugged me and went off to the shower. She is so muchly with the awesome :) Tags: communication, humour, love

I have just lumbered back into the bed room.I'd say I am up from 20% to about 50%. That which has me still down is congestion that is slowly breaking up and some of the worst muscle aches I have ever had while sick. Now, I've had sore muscles on occasion while ill, but this is entirely new. The small of my back is entirely on fire and locked up. It's as if I've pulled a muscle entirely and sent it off to be abused somewhere. jnanacandra has been treating me like a prince this week. And I really need to comment about how incredible this is. We have movers arriving in 8 days. Not 2 weeks, not 10 days, but 8. The last 3 days have been an utter loss to me. Most of the time I have been immobile in bed. The spasm-ing in my back has left me grumpy and irritable. Right now I am typing during one of those pauses in pain where it's only a throbbing annoyance in my back rather than an oil based fire. Earlier I asked jnanacandra if she could run for some more drugs and cough drops. I also suggested we need food. I really didn't eat much yesterday at all. Well, until she cooked dinner. (And it was awesome) She came back from the store, with drugs, cough drops, sandwich fixin's and a cream soda that I really like. (No, chite not Dr. Brown's ;) She's also been working on the house non-stop while I've been laid up. Again, it's just entirely awesome. Many times this week have I blessed my good fortune for having done enough good deeds to deserve having someone like her in my life. I love her very much. And I just felt like making it firmly known to any and all. :)  Der Kommissar - 80s Pop Culture Disc 4Tags: health, love
