Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'm not sure what that means in this context, but it sounds good.

The doctors and nurses swear my pain management doctors have created a pain contract for me in the ER, and that they must follow that to the letter. No such thing ever happened, because my pain management doctors refuse to prescribe me any sort of medication (don't ask, I can't answer). But when a doctor/nurse is feeling balky, they cite some magic document. My migraine specialist has finally found this document, and I hope he can exercise some degree of control over it. I can't bargain on cool nurses like last week.

If I hadn't had such a decent ER experience Sunday morning, there's no way I could work after two nights of such poor sleep. My head is killing. I just really need to drag myself through every day this week.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I really am the whiniest sick person ever.

OOOH, a challenge!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

A few miles from my apartment, a business had half of its roof blown off.

I was surprised to see all that on the news last night. It rained here, but I didn't notice any crazy wind.

What if I have two independent clauses that have a lot in common and want to be joined together? Why can't they express related idea love?

I didn't notice any crazy wind.

When I was driving in the storm, my car was definitely getting buffeted a bit, but not dangerously so. I guess I avoided the worst of it.
