high as a kite

yeah, so I'm a clumsy hazard to myself. managed to drop a box full of food off a shopping cart... slipped on a wet floor, fell over my own foot and crashed onto the stone-floor with my left knee first. coupla ice packs and 2 days later, the other knee decided to join and now I walk like the friggin' hunchback of notre dame. Basically I've been living off painkillers for 3 days now and it starts to affect me. being high as a kite can be lovely.. but not for days...
*sighs*
checked out some universities' websites today... looks like getting a seat to study will turn out quite difficult. and then there's the issue about getting a place to go back to school before that, as well.
I feel old, impotent and crippled. hurting all over. someone take pity on me...
