Recovering From Dog Attack And Injury With A Solid Weekend

I am super fortunate that I called up a couple of my buddies and hung out with them the entire weekend since I was no longer able to work. Instead of sitting around sad, I had some good meals, went to an improv theater, went to a mini art district, chilled/slept well, had many laughs, and overall got a lot of much needed rest. I was even able to get my neighbor to get me some peroxide and ointment last minute while I was changing out my bandage. Called a best friend and shot the shit with him a while.

I am super grateful and blessed to have people in my life – all I need to do is ask or tell them what I need. Sounds obvious, but being an adult man, I’ve learned I can’t expect things to just happen. I’m learning that the old adage: “ask and you shall receive” stands true when done properly. And honestly, my mood has been superb this weekend given all that. I could’ve been a negative bitch, but I had a wonderful time. Me being negative about my hand won’t help me any.

Related, I’ll be taking time to revamp somethings. I won’t be able to do my normal workout routine or bartend for a little bit, so I think this will be good time for some healthy contemplation. Considering pausing dating short-term too to take care of myself… I have some leads to “finalize” before deciding that. But I am more important than that frivolous stuff. I know that I can always return when I am well again and kick ass.

I did create a FetLife account and took quite some time to intentionally write up about myself and my desires. Sounds funny, but I took it sort of as a journaling exercise to ask myself what I like from a sexual standpoint. I’ve never really done this, and I will keep working on it to further find out more about myself. I joined some online groups, and posted some messages… just an experiment, so we’ll see how far I go with that.

I think this is a blessing in disguise, but I will figure out my next steps later.
