the last 48 Hours...or what i remember of them...

The good thing about pain...

the pain KILLERS. ahhh...yes...

sweet delirium.

No idea of whether you're coming or going...

or what that nice lady with the pink smock is doing in your arm...

or what that red stuff is doing coming out of your arm....

it is GRAND!!!

Spent most of Friday morning in the emergency room...which i've noticed is no longer abbreviated ER. it's now ED. at first i kept thinking, "WHY are they abbreviating what has been known in over 100 years as the EMERGENCY ROOM the SAME abbreviation for Erectile dysfunction?!?!"

The Emergency Department (as it is now called), was actually nice. i had my own room, with a TV (so that Jacob could watch the rest of the Caps game), and my own light switch so i could turn the lights off and sleep for 30 minutes, or until the nurse came to get my vitals....again.

The best part of the....morning...was actually NOT the heated blankets they gave us...although that did help! it was the pain killers! i felt like my innards were exploding (which, in fact, they were) and not only did they "take the edge off"...but i could've been run over by a bus at high speed, placed under a 40 car train, then dropped off the side of the grand canyon, and still i would've felt no pain.

OHHHHH SWEET DELIRIUM!

the coming off of said meds, however, made me felt like i was hit by a moving bus, placed under a 40 car train, and dangling off the side of the grand canyon.

I know in the last 48 hours, i received lots of text messages and maybe phone calls, but i honestly can't remember. and if you are one of these people who messaged me in some fashion, but have not heard from me. just remember....i was busy dangling off the side of the grand canyon. i apologize! your well-wishes are appreciated!! :o)
