ita !, that is exactly the kind of team advocacy that makes the difference. Fight!

Art Crawl!!!
The doctor came in - definitely spending the night.
He says that I have about 100 pockets in my colon. But there was one that looked different so he tried to make it bleed but couldn't - anyway, he clipped that one and we've just got to keep our fingers crosses that its the one that was the culprit.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Oh Steph, I totally understand the rage! Hoping that you found the calm and are currently kicking someone's ass over at the hospital. Much ~ma to you and your father.
And sumi, much ~ma to you as well. Second night at the hospital isn't fun. I am so so glad you went in to have things checked.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
sumi,
I don't quite understand the colon, but I'm nodding over here.
the hospital has wifi, so it can't be all bad.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Fingers crossed for you, sumi!
Um, holy crap. I am now doing extra work Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, then Monday and Tuesday. The new dates are for this movie - [link] (OMG, I might breathe the same air as Common!). Also, I just pulled up the calculator on my computer dashboard, and I have a widget that I'd totally forgotten about... it's been exactly nine months since I moved to New Orleans. Wow.

Glad to hear your doctors are on the ball, sumi. I hope your stay is relatively short.
smonster, that sounds absolutely awesome! Have fun with it all!

It sounds like your doctor is both attentive and communicative, sumi. I like him! Here's hoping for a quick release.
Fun stuff, smonster!

Ugh. Dear Girl from OKCupid--if your first question, in response to my email (since we both rated each other highly and OKCupid told us so) is "How long have you been single?"...that tells me YOU are still too wrapped up in your last relationship or are probably very seriously serial monogamist--and assume everyone else is too. Not really my bag.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
sumi, I'm glad you're getting good care! 100 pockets sounds like you won some sort of colon lottery. (Yay?)
Still confused about what's going on with my dad, although I'm starting to suspect some of that is how he's relaying the information to me. When he went to the hospital last night, since he presented with chest pains and has a 20-year (egad!) history of heart disease, the ER ran the battery of tests that get run when someone shows up with chest pain (EKG, blood tests for troponin, etc.). So no heart attack, which I more or less knew as of last night.
As for why they're keeping him until Monday? According to him, the cardiologist is changing some of his (many, MANY) medications and wants to see if that helps the chest pain. I can understand wanting to keep him there to observe him in case anything goes awry. I don't really understand what tests, if any, they'll run on him Monday. Again, I think he's not real clear on what's going on, and then he's relaying his muddled understanding of it to me.
I am not going over there today, but I probably will tomorrow, just so I can ask a medical professional what exactly is going on.
As for me, Tim is camping, and I am going to get carry-out sushi in 10 minutes, watch some Buffy in honor of the 15th anniversary, and go to bed ridiculously early, since I got about 5 hours of sleep last night and no nap today.
