Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Prosecco. A whole bottle, when I am pretty much a teetotaller. With the raspberries, it went down like delicious water.

Okay, I did my wifely duty and tried to get Dan off the couch where he was watching cartoons and feel asleep. He says he will be up "in a few minutes." I say "Bullshit, buddy, don't tell me if your back hurts tomorrow, cause I tried twce to haul your sleepy ass to bed!" So THERE! Ha.

I had fun tonight, though. It was so nice to be out with friends.

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

I just got back from seeing Juliana's play with JZ. It was awesome, especially Juliana, and it was great to see JZ.

Ok, that is all, I think I will look at gardening sites.

It would be way too dangerous for me to look at gardening sites while drunk. I'd find myself with a hundred dollars worth of seeds.

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

They've given me a bed in the hallway. I don't want to seem ungrateful, but they can't treat me out here. I need monitoring and often oxygen. Not to mention the bright lights and noise. Am unhappy.

That's just wrong, ita.

It's moot for the moment, because the first nurse couldn't get a line in, so I'm waiting for someone else to notice me. I don't even have a bell to ring for extra blankets.

ita, are they working towards getting you a bed in a room? The room schedulers there are either the worst or completely overworked, I can't figure out which.

In the last two visits we have waited over 6 hours for a bed each time. and it was a scheduled surgery where they knew they were admitting her!

I don't think so, kat. They just got a line in (fifth try, three nurses) and apparently the meds are on the way. They used to insist to me that I kept almost dying. I guess I win that argument, if I'm going under un-monitored.

The times I've been scheduled intake the waits have been pretty horrible. And apparently predictable, given everyone's schedule.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

ita, I hope they get you sorted out quickly.
