Materia Medica

Thanks to all for your thoughts, wishes, and prayers.

And to the divine poppy.

And a new pain med called something very much like taradiddle.

And two bags of saline drip.

Under the influence of which I made an off color remark. The color in question being a very dark red.

"Oh, they pricked your finger."
"At least they didn't finger my prick."

And Barsanuphius, a stuffed animal of indeterminate species which Srsti (yes the r is a vowel, deal with it) brought back to the emergency room from her late dinner break. I should have called him Peter for two reasons, but that would have been pompously Papistical.

The offending particle, when I pissed it out attempting to produce sufficient urine to insert a dipstick into, was insultingly small, at least compared to some of the things I have passed in the past, especially after the lithotripsy.

Home by midnight.

Cheerful? Well I gotta tell you, they say renal colic is the worst pain known to medical science, and when it stops, you sure feel like cheering!

I guess I have an older crowd on my friends list. Lots of illness, grieving, worry.

Wouldn't mind a physics test or two. Sixteen feet per second per second. That's one of the answers, right? And eff equals emm eh.
