so this is probably as good a time as any

How you feeling after your operation? I imagine it must be pretty weird seeing a stump instead of a leg, even if you were ready for it.

The cool (?) thing is, this leg was fucked up for so long already that it wasn't so much of a shock. I've been using a gigantic leg brace and ace wraps and shit for long enough that it was honestly weirder to see my normal leg; so now that there's a stump instead, it happens to line up *pretty* close to where my brace started, and it's actually not weird to look at for me. The strangest thing is definitely moving it -- since the residual limb weighs basically nothing at all, it's like zero-g or something. I've also got a little bit of phantom-sensation going on, which is pretty surreal.

Glad to hear it all went well mdk. :)

[Awson]

Keep this up and in 2030 you can be like robocop.

Future's looking good bro.

Glad you're okay <3

Glad you're doing so well MDK.

[Cayden Black]

I may be a stranger, but I am still glad you seem to be in the clear MDK. And remember, you can now be an extra in movies where you leg gets blown off!! (They do hire people for that, honest!)

[mdk]

Owwwwwwwww.

Slept on it weird, and now everything sucks

Pop some morphine and down it with whiskey.

That will definitely make you feel better. Totally.

The trick is to keep working out, cuz for some reason once you break through the pain, it goes away ish. Courage is curage. HOP IT OFF

Speaking of this, and the prospect of a prosthetic, here's your welcome-back.

[mdk]

That is beyond weird. Can't watch it all ATM. Anyway apparently the way it works is I take a few weeks to heal/shrink before we really start talking prosthetics. For now I get to roll around and creep people out with only one shoe.

But just to prove what a boss I am, I've already checked out if the hospital. Definitely need to pace myself a bit but this is all going ludicrously smooth. It was fun to roll around the inpatient rooms and see guys with like, a broken toe, begging for more painkillers. Me and my fat nurse were laughing at everybody. It was great.

[Raxacoricofallapatorius]

Sounds like you're taking this all very well.

[mdk]

I'm compiling a list of places to go..... Thinking IHOP has to be near the top, what else you got

[andromedene]

Go get some cheesecake.

KFC? Buy some drumsticks and stare everyone down.

Trivia question -- how many bones are in MDK's body now? If you google it you lose.
