Simon: I, uh... I never-never shot anyone before. Book: I was there, son. I'm fair sure you haven't shot anyone yet.

Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

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

I'm sure there are at least some reasons it works that way, but it's not very transparent for the patient, so it can often seem like "whenever we get around to it."

I think a large part of it is that patients who are ready to be released are (almost always) by definition the healthiest in the hospital, and therefore a pretty low priority unless the hospital is short on rooms.

Our wings are not tired

I am so glad Drew is going to get out today. We thought he would be out this morning maybe, but ah well.

If the GI doctor ever comes to see me. I'm waiting for them to release me and no sign of them yet.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Eeeeee! I need to call you and hash out details, but not tonight.

but we saw the airport had a disco so we decided to stay and dance.

...yeah, that's plausible.

May you be released soon, ND.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Aw geez. Sorry. Proves I shouldn't post jokes late at night. DJ, forgot about that, sorry to dredge up things.

I'm so sorry. I wasn't thinking when I laughed.
Yup, that was me.

Erin_O, are you ok? I hope you had a good nights sleep.

I am no longer in training for police dispatch at work
I hope this means that you are now out of training mode, and not out of a job mode.

If you know me you know I don't deal well with just sitting around waiting. That's what I've been doing since Friday night at 11 PM.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

It's ok. Not crying into my cornflakes or anything.

In other animal news, I feel so sorry for Ozymandias having to deal with his stupid people. I have clearly put something he wants in or on the dresser. I keep showing him things and he just looks back at the dresser and whines ever more plaintively, and then he looks at me and sighs as is to say, "Oy, you dumb girl, I'm looking right at it!"

not your mom's socks.

Today at Wondermark is apparently a Buffista day: [link]

We've been enjoying a visit with D! Instead of the planned biking expedition, we hid from the rain at the art museum. Very nice, this art thing! And yes, making plans to visit Amy!

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

((erin))

Police dispatching is very stressful work.

*crossing fingers ND gets released today and that his health is in good enough shape to be released*
