Is it (SLIGHTLY) "SAD"?!

Movie qotes are a GREAT sign that my accident didn't COMPLETELY ERASE my memory.
I.e.
 
."CHIM-CHIMINEE-CHIM-CHIM-CHY-ROO, HOO!"
THAT'S from 'Ace Ventura: Pet Detective'.

THIS IS HUGE!

..."THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!"--'The Office'
Joking aside--THIS is a bit personal--, but I JUST "asked" staff to sit me on my "porcelain throne".  So, while there, I BOTH secreted urine AND excreted fecal matter!

"THAT JUST HAPPENED!"--ME

So, my Occupational Therapist just came to my room and asked me to try putting on a shirt.  So, I put on a tee-shirt--over my current shirt--with VERY LITTLE assistance then took it off.  I repeated this procedure 'sans' undershirt.  (RELAX, LADIES!)

I'm ROLLIN'!

In physical therapy just now, I rolled from the "on-my-back" position to "prone" twice in each direction.  THIS IS HUGE!  ("THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!"--Michael Scott, 'The Office') I also lied (NOT laid) on my stomach and played Connect 4.  (I won both games, but THAT'S NOT IMPORTANT!)

MORE PROGRESS

Today, I demonstrated--by "going through the motions"--(to completion) (INCLUDING squeezing the toothpaste--that I can brush my teeth. 
Oh yeah!  THIS was my "Occupational Therapy" today.

A STEP BACKWARDS

...UNFORTUNATELY!

This morning a new staff girl woke me up and tried to put me in my chair--AROUND 5 A.M.!  I resisted, so she tried rolling me onto my BAD, INJURED shoulder and dragging me in my bed.  IS SHE ILLITERATE?!  My "file" says that my left shoulder is SEVERELY injured.  THAT HURT!
