Day Two

I'm sure you're all dying to know. This morning I woke up with little to no pain. I wouldn't say I'm back to 100%, and I'm not doing backflips down the halls, but I do feel pretty darn good. Yesterday afternoon I felt kind of hazy and scatterbrained, and I had a mild headache that was easily treated with Tylenol; but today none of that continues. It still feels odd to not be in pain. I'll get up from my chair and feel awkward because I'm putting more weight on my right leg out of habit, even though neither hip hurts. We went to the Phillies game last night (hooray for a win!), and thanks to some lovely traffic, we made it from our seats to our car in about a half hour (foot traffic), the parking lot to the highway (about 4-6 blocks) in about an hour, out of Philly (20 miles? 30?) in about an hour, and then the rest of the way home in about 45 minutes. Needless to say, we were up way past our normal bed time, and more or less just crashed when we got home. I slept through the night and even spent some time on my stomach this morning – a position that's been uncomfortable for me for a while now – and though there was some discomfort, it wasn't that bad. Hopefully this trend will continue.
