Thanks, Strega--that's immensely cheering.
Back from the ER. You're right--blood does speed things up. 11 stitches total, over two cuts (larger of the lip splits, plus the through & through gouge in the cheek). This is going to ache when the lidocaine wears all the way off, that's for sure. In the meanwhile I should do some of that eating (okay, perhaps not) and drinking (break out the bendy straws) that help prevent this silliness.
It was very sweet--a couple nurses and a guy from registration came by to see why I was there and how I was because they knew me from migraine visits.
eesh, ita.
I'm glad it wasn't worse.
You know why the rest of the world hates Americans? Americans mindlessly yelling "U-S-A! U-S-A!" OMG, shut up!
Glad to hear from you ita.
Are you sure it's not Canadians shouting USA USA in order to make people hate Americans?
wait, what? you could hear me?
ION - I got rid of a big piece of furniture tonight - thank you freecycle. I loved the big comfy chair, but it's time had come. ROOM!
ita - I am so sorry, but glad you are back home.
