I wish I had some fun drugs right now. I'm not in pain, just really really bored. I'm at the doctor's office having my blood sugar tested, which takes an hour after they give you the glucose drink. I just want somebody to come poke me with a needle so I can leave already!
Oh, Pacey! You blind idiot. Can't you see she doesn't love you?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
I see a potential career path. Does it matter which rules?Sadly, not so much.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I wish I had some fun drugs right now.
Me too! My current ones (for migraines and allergies) SUCK and aren't doing what they are supposed to.

I'm kind of in pain, and I wouldn't say no to fun drugs. I'm going to limp home now and see if I can't get this glass out of my foot.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Several Buffistas were the lucky (?) recipients of my morphine-addled phone calls from the hospital. "I just want to say that MORPHINE...IS...THE...SHIT!!!!"
Teppy the drug fiend is pretty amusing. Though Ple on Red Bull and vodka is even funnier. "Whathefuckever..."

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Yay! We're going out in a bit to have dinner with a friend who's visiting from out of town.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I wouldn't mind drugs right now, after our Big Work Event today. Phew! I hope I can stand up again soon, like I need to...

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
The morphine drip in the hospital helped with pain, but if it was high enough to knock out the pain, it also made me very spacey and dropped my blood pressure so low that I kept nodding off. Then the Vicodin worked a treat-- except for the projectile vomiting. Now, I'm on Ibuprofen and it works well.
Just back from my two-week post-op appointment. I'm doing very well and am cleared to drive short distances--so it's off to the movies with my mom tomorrow!

S has the "I feel the pain, I just don't care any more" response to morphine, though she says it does dull the pain a little.
She responds to other pain meds by hallucinating and acting very crazy/strange. It scares the living crapola out of me, and I'd prefer to never see her like that again.
Actually, I saw her as she was coming out of a general anasthetic once and that scared me even more. It was like she had severe brain damage, and she also was breathing funny. I wanted to cry and throw up.
This was at the county hospital. When she's been under general at St. Joe's, she's come out of it much quicker and responded much better. The ansthesiologist at St. Joe's is much more careful. The ones at the county hospital can't seem to be arsed to adjust their dosages to the body size and physiology of the patient. Seems dangerous to me.

Considering the same thing nearly made me a widow ten years ago, yeah, it's a bit dangerous. They didn't weigh him and figured he was lying about his declared weight and added a hundred pounds.
