Something's wrong from the moon, my friends
Something's wrong from the moon
As I look down at you my friends
Something's wrong from the moon
Poor little man
You been run down
Poor little man
You're all run down
I can see right through your eyes
I can see right through your weary eyes
I can hear right through your cries... Read More
Wow that video was strangely beautiful. You know what? It still gets me when I see pics of the earth from space. I don't why, but it always touches me to see our little blue planet.
So, I've been spending a lot of time watching NASA footage over the last week. I am so incredibly jazzed about the return to manned flight to the moon. The Apollo 11 landing is my very first memory as a child. It's really interesting to me how a phrase (or smell, or any sensory input) can virtually transport you in time to a moment in... Read More
I am right back in my parents living room, 1969, my father has just woken us all up to watch something "you'll remember your whole life".
I was four at the time but I have a very distinct memory of being plopped in front of the TV and hearing that exact same phrase from Mom & Dad. Have you been watching "When We Left Earth" on the Discovery Channel? It's fantastic!
Well, I am writing this from my desk at work, that's right, I'M BAAAAACK. No pain meds, no antibiotics, no restrictions. Now I don't have to submit a stupid status report everyday to account for my time. That got SO old.
I already put in for my first vacation for the week of the 4th. I thought they would hit the roof, but no, I... Read More
I got two more tubes removed yesterday. They had one running around my abdominal cavity sucking up rogue fluid that was hiding out in the void space between organs. Man that was a weird feeling. Imagine an eel sitting in amongst your belly suddenly grabbed and pulled out. I felt all this twisting and turning as the tube came out and a residual slime trail... Read More
Oooh....that tube thing doesn't sound like a very cool feeling. Glad you're on the mend. I tried calling once when you were sleeping. i hope its' not too early to be left on your own. Are you going to have a nurse to help you at all when you're home or is that necesarry at this point?
Well, had a little excitement last night. The tech recorded my neighbors temp on my chart and stirred up a bees nest. I had people flying about my room, drawing blood for cultures, scheduling cat scans, changing my status back to no food/water, etc etc etc. I was like, WTF!! Then they told me I spiked a fever and they were doing all this stuff... Read More
Guess what was just delivered to my room, you're never gonna guess, go on, guess...guess.. A FRUIT (and more) BASKET!!!! I am doing a spiritual happy-dance!! I held the basket close and such wonderful smells danced over me, nutty, chocholatty, sugary, yummy yummy yummy! Thank you all for the kind wished and a definite great big hug to you amazingly beautify person. there are... Read More
How long are you going to be laid up? Are you going to be ambulatory after this or are you going to be bedridden for a while during the healing? That sound like such a painful injury. Are you allowed to laugh or will that blow some stitches? I don't want to be saying anything funny and send you back to the hospital.
so sad to hear that you've been laid up !! Glad that someone got you what you had been craving! I hope you are in good shape again soon, and home and happy xoxo T
I am out of the ICU!!! Back to the surgical floor. And I can swallow some water! life just doesn't get any better. the room is really warm, new construction everywhere, but there is ice. I found one unexpected plus to having been exposed to MRSA, isolation rooms!! No roomie in the hospital! i'd almost trade A/C for the privacy...almost. Room 640 at Bayview Medical... Read More
Well, still in ICU, still with the catheter, but they were very busy today. My nurse didnt even have time to come in and introduce herself this morning. The PT guys came by and put me in the little chair in my little room. I should be out of ICU today as rooms open up. And DMAC that fruit basket looked so deliscious I wanted... Read More
wow, i have a lot to say by no time to say it. i've been back in the hospital since last sunday, large umbilical hernia with some bowel caught up. Translate, pain, lots of pain. just had surgery saturday, they brought me out without pain meds for a reason, but i dont know what itwas. and the nurse asked me what my level of pain... Read More
Holy shit! Sorry man, I had no idea. See what happens when I don't hang in chat for a kabillion years.
Hope you get to feeling better quickly. Tell nurse Adolf to bite your ass.
