I get acrylics, I should add.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So I ended up in the ER today, and the doctor's plan was to give me what I take at home (but had run out of). The attending asked him (in front of me, which was almost embarassing) "Whose idea was that?" He almost tried to pass the buck back to me. Almost my most frustrating visit to date. The stadol (which I take at home, but run out of in a week) gives me an hour or two if I double the dose. That's so not what I go to the ER for.
Still, the good news is that the staff was all "Long time no see!" Well, the rest of the staff, not unsure resident. But I have started out 2009 with increased time between visits, so that's good.
As well as quelling the migraine I'd had for a couple dates, the procedure soreness seems to be quieter. So that's good too.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I'm only at 2 weeks, but I'm kind crazy about pushing and cutting my cuticles so the gap from the tip to the base is like an eighth of an inch.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
Work has confirmed they are sending me away on TDY. Five fully comped winter weeks in south Florida instead of Kansas City, yay!

I wish you didn't have to roll the dice with each ER visit, ita. I wish you could see the same crew who knew the drill every time. The main nurse when I was with you was so sure he could stick you and so frustrated when he couldn't. I wish you could get the ones with the right drugs and the surefire stick every time. All after, of course, I wish you didn't need to go at all.

Now tagless for your comfort.
msbelle, I usually went 2-2 1/2 weeks between fills. I've been biting so badly, I should go back to acrylics.

Ugh, ita. I'm sorry.
Grace had her g-tube replaced at bedside today (which is excellent because her g-tube had been leaking for several weeks). The procedure took 2-3 minutes but, from the RTs report, was probably pretty uncomfortable. It made for crabby girl the rest of the day. But she was willing to sit on her stool.

Oh so cute! She does look like she thinking "really? I'm supposed to perch myself on top of this?"
I feel like I have no place complaining, but about a month ago I tweaked my back right between my shoulder blades. Well that's feeling better now, but now my left hand and arm get a bit numb. Grrr. Back to the PT/chiro I guess?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
