More or less concussed

Day 3:
Yesterday four of us went to the Vermont bear factory, and to Ben and Jerrys Icecream factory. The drive all over Vermont was well welcoomed. After being in and out of consisousness(or so it seemed) for the past 2,3 or 5 days I was glad to be out of the house. Driving out of the Killington area, I remembered some of the drive up, and meeting at Outback Pizza on my first night. Some of the buildings and signs now looked familar as well. I rembered getting lost and I was able to pick out the roads that we took the wrong turn onto. Things are slowly being pieced together. All but the actual sledding...
At Ben and Jerrys we had a little tour of the factory, sampled some icecream and picked up 12 pints of icecream. Sounds like a lot of icecream.... not really it was promptly taken care of the moment we walked in the door. I loved driving thru the mountains and the twisting and winding roads were a beautiful change from Pittsburgh.
This morning breakfast consisted of butter fries(exactly what they sound like- fries sauteed in a pan with a stick of butter) and some eggs... oh theres also the experimental Sunny Delight and Vodka...this is a new concoction this year and has seemed to go over very well with the hungover breakfast crowd. I'm sticking to straight oj. Hopefully we're going to watch some ski jumping a little later.
On a side note, I have some new colorations to add to my injury list: I'm convinced that the Rutland hospital uses super glue to adhere bandages to patients arms. While peeling off my tape that held my iv bandage on, I exfoliated, waxed, and removed numerous arm hair and several layers of skin. My arm is now a few shades of light purple due to bandage removal! Also, my left eye is starting to develop a little coloration. The bruise/blood from my forehead is starting to ooze down my face and settling nicely in my left eye socket. My right eye is also turning some very deep shades of purple and becoming a little splotchy. The itchyness is continuing and half of my forehead is still numb.
