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.
Wash: Mal, your dead army buddy's on the bridge! Zoe: He ain't dead. Wash: Oh.

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

In B'ham, I remember a Subway, a Pizza Hut and a couple of local small chains. Sinai was just baaaad overpriced sysco food. Baaaad. I think I got a yogurt and pretzels. Kid happily has spaghetti, but it smelled like boyardee to me. Uhg.

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.
There is a McDonalds IN the Abbott Northwestern Hospital campus (where Daniel was for his leg for those three weeks, yonks ago, and his mom had her heart surgery in January). One of the hospital staff brought her a McRib sandwich when she wasn't eating anything else.

Oh, thanks for the offer, Polgara! I think I should just consider this a fruit cleanse and resume life tomorrow morning. Very kind of you to offer, though.
(Maybe pretending my tea has lemonade and cayenne pepper will make the plain yoghurt tastier)

The boutique hospital near the mall had a Wolfgang Puck certified kitchen and they were ABYSMAL. Ruined a fucking baked potato. Still can't work out the mechanics of that one.

My modest goal right now is to get to sleep as soon as possible (I've asked them to move up the ambien dose to an hour from now, at least) and then wake up AND LEAVE. Life back in my own hands, whoo hah. But thanks for looking out.
Changing gears entirely--my sister has given me links she's trying to spread in fighting for legal abortions in Jamaica. So far she has twitter [link] and Facebook [link] I suggested they try tumblr too. I'm not sure precisely what the law is, but there were approximately 170,000 illegal abortions in 2008.
