I've gotten so many emails, I feel like I need to respond publicly. I don't want any of you to worry about me, I'm fine. Before we move on to other topics (and tomorrow's post is a good one!), I just want to assure you I'm picking myself up and moving forward. Last week's drama was a surprise ... a sad and heartbreaking surprise, but oh well.
It certainly isn't the first time in my life I've been disappointed or hurt by a friend.
Such is life.
I'm seeing my doc/surgeon this week. I've decided to wait and discuss my future PT with him before I make any appointments. If I were going to be working with a PT for a month or two like normal people do, it wouldn't matter much. However, I will probably need someone to work with me on an ongoing basis for ... um, forever.
(Good God, it's hard to admit that.)
Personality matters, a lot, to me.
I need someone who can learn when to push me and when to hug me. I need a PT who can laugh - a lot. I do know a few PTs who have become my friends these last few years. They're people I've met through The Torturer. The thing is, I think I need a fresh start ... a start that isn't associated with The Torturer at all, in any way, whatsoever.
In the meantime, my arm was really acting up over the weekend. It was cold and rainy here on Saturday and that never seems to help. I decided to pick up a few items for home use to hold me over. It might take a few weeks to get set up with a new PT (if my insurance will even cover it) and I can't afford to neglect my arm for very long.
Since my accident, I've spent a lot of time learning to do arm stretches with a big exercise ball so I bought one to help stretch my arm muscles at home.
I realized as I looked at the box, the very answer I've been looking for was right there in front of me ... and he's got six-pack abs too!
What do you think?
Maybe he's available for hire?
After all, I did say personality matters, a lot, to me.

And *personality* he has in spades!

He does look like a nice guy. You should try him!
Posted by: Mo | February 08, 2010 at 04:10 AM
I'll bet he'd know when to push you...
Posted by: Maureen@IslandRoar | February 08, 2010 at 04:53 AM

Hmmm, well, yes. If he doesn't work out, send him right on over - I could use some, er, pushing and hugging myself.
Posted by: Jan | February 08, 2010 at 05:50 AM
Oh yes! Lots of personality!!!
Posted by: Linda | February 08, 2010 at 05:55 AM
Ha ha! This is one of the reasons I love you. Even when life shits on you, you make us laugh. Maybe if you find a pt that is hot enough he'll help you get over the torturer.
Posted by: Kelly | February 08, 2010 at 06:54 AM
That's the spirit! He is scrumptious and I am sure he has a winning personality to go with the body! ;)
Posted by: Michelle Pixie | February 08, 2010 at 07:55 AM
Nice!! I hope the new PT looks just like him! That'd sure keep your mind off any pain...

GAWD! I dont know how you managed the lipstick kissie, I would have left bite marks!!!!! ahahahaha we are freakin SOOOO funny!
Posted by: Joanne | February 08, 2010 at 08:20 AM
OH, the important stuff. I would call around and find out who accepts what is left of your insurance, make a list and go visit. Pick out the ones you like and then ask your doctor. That way you will make him aware that you care, and want the best. Please also leave room to forgive the Torturer, you know he cannot possibly be happy about his decision, even if he could have done it more personally, I know it could not have been easy for him. I would even ask him for help on your final pick, once you have interviewed some PT's. Then if he is not nice we promise to poo-poo him forever!
Posted by: Joanne | February 08, 2010 at 08:24 AM
Ha! I love him!

You know Suzanne, this post..... it's just....well, it's not doing a thing for me. Nothing. I guess I'll head somewhere else. Maybe here. http://damncoolpics.blogspot.com/2008/03/girls-of-israeli-army.html If only I wasn't old, fat, and gentile. Dang it. :-)

Lol..good to see you're getting back to the 24 I've grown so fond of. And I saw that "BIG DIAMETER" on that box! Go get 'em!
Posted by: Jenn in Tenn | February 08, 2010 at 12:28 PM
LOL! hahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!
Loving the BIG DIAMETER!!
Posted by: Cecilia | February 08, 2010 at 01:41 PM
I think he will do.
Posted by: Kim @ Beautiful Wreck | February 08, 2010 at 03:28 PM
I think a man who can sit on his balls is intriguing. Interview him and make him show you first.
Posted by: Fragrant Liar | February 08, 2010 at 04:45 PM
I've fallen behind on the past three or four posts; I had no idea you had broken up! What a bummer.
But I love your attitude in this post, and I think you should continue posting about possible hot PTs.
And I love all of the play on words going on here in the comments! That Fragrant Liar!
Posted by: Jason | February 08, 2010 at 07:58 PM
Well if you decide not to take him, I'll have him!
I think you need someone like Richard Simmons :)

been out of the loop around the webz for a few weeks... sorry about your break up. This? a perfect rebound guy! *snort*
