Heh. When Lilty wrote "packing" I was thinking about what meara or Ple would mean by that phrase - not the getting-ready-for-travel version.
I *did* call various Buffistas from the hospital when I was looped out of my gourd on morphine. I'm told I was amusing.
Yeah. That was good. Morphine calling - it's a whole different vibe. Actually I called you while you were doped up. You didn't remember a thing. But you were very loopy during the call.

When I was hopped up on morphine just after my sinus surgery, I was reportedly pretty funny. Aside from telling Bec that she was "a good wifey" for being there when I woke up, and demanding -- loudly -- that they remove this catheter IMMEDIATELY, I then gazed owlishly at the nurse as she explained that in one hand I had a morphine button, and in the other I had a nurse button. "So, if I hit this button, I get a shot of morphine... And if I hit this button, you get a shot of morphine!"
Now I want to see the Mighty Morphine Power Rangers.
I was pretty boring on morphine, or at least Burrell's DH didn't notice how completely out of my gourd I was. The nurse asked if I was still in pain. I was, and told her so, but there was no way I was taking any more of the stuff.
I was in pain, sure, but I really didn't care.

Pretty much the definition of morphine.
Hmmm, JZ's new gen-u-wine leather knee high boots were a ridiculous deal at $38 (no shipping charge).
The applicable question was "Is the pain bothering you?" Not so much "Does it still hurt?"
I wonder if they usually bother with that distinction.
yay date is on!
loved the letters - DH was a tad cruder than anything I saw here..
glad to hear that the buffistas near and dear seem to be safe.
and I am wondering if the ex-pat thing is a habit of speech?
and yay Susan !
did I leave anything out?
like that fact that Matt broke his toe? by dropping a bandsaw on it?
Whatever he was doing--even if he was
trying
to break his toe--maybe you should tell him he's doing it
wrong.
Ooh. I've found a page of echidna pics: [link]
