bird hold?
'War Stories'

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Yeah, the bird thing is an additional confusion.
Melted cheese on demand would be amazing magic too.
Is there an orderly you can bribe to get you a grilled cheese from the cafeteria?
Do you have a bird you like to hold?
I got it!
(Dr. Seuss)
The last time my grandmother was in the hospital for her heart, my mother told them about her throat thing, so she only got ground meals. And no salt. That was fun for her.
Just one foot. It's tucked into the crook of my knee to warm it up. My body is weird. I'm pretty sure I bruised the balls of both my feet the last couple of nights in the pool. Doing the same thing I do every day. I don't even know.
The baby robin was fun to hold. But pigeons are much more substantial and muscular. t /literal
Since the room service seems totally okay with delivering cold toast I am not going to ask them to violate a grilled cheese on my behalf. I don't want that on my conscience or my tongue.
Their fruit plates aren't as bad as you'd expect, but it's ridiculously hard to get a constant supply of tea. Like, once they brought two tea bags instead of one. If I didn't have my travel mug it'd be a pain on the tech staff too as I bothered them for hot water.
I've always been amazed at the lack of food diversity in hospitals. Even when it is the food court/hospital food service kitchen shared by the spendy new HYOOOGE Childrens and oncology complex in Birmingham, which is on the downtown UAB campus. Tons of donors and froo-froo stuff and yet the food court is teeny and uninspired. Hell, there's only one Starbucks in there and no other coffee shop in two huge, sprawling buildings. Now granted, plenty of good places to find food and drink nearby, walkable even, but if you can't stray far, lame.
And don't even try to find anything filling at Sinai here. And Ft Hood Hospital? The hospital for the largest army base in the US? After 7, vending machines only. The grilled cheese was...recognizable?
The hospital where I had Jake and Children's here in Philly both have McDonald's right in the building. Which was convenient, but probably not the best choice in a place of, you know, health.
Can I bring you anything, ita?
The cafeteria is much better than the kitchen, but neither are great.
And they can't fucking give me my last med until 10:30. I don't have two more hours of nothing in particular left in me. I wonder if I can skip that one...
