So I'm here at the hospital again. My sister may be getting discharged today, today or tomorrow.
Book: Yes, I'd forgotten you're moonlighting as a criminal mastermind now. Got your next heist planned? Simon: No. But I'm thinking about growing a big black mustache. I'm a traditionalist.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Fingers crossed firmly for you, Burrell.

Geez. I know I spoil Charlie, both because that's who I am and because of his back story, but even he knows the sit command, and I am working on the barking.
Speaking of Charlie, even though he really does like the doggie day care I take him to, in order to get into the premises, he has to go through this little chain link corridor, where there is usually a man standing, and then I leave him, so every morning I have to put on my excited voice to make it a happy happy joy joy thing instead of a fear thing, and I just keep thinking that I really need someone like that to get me into work.
I suspect they would get punched a lot though.

Because books.
~Ma for your sister, Burrell, and for you.
We never got Lucy to stop barking, either, but she definitely knew how to sit and all that.
This is a really dog-friendly town, and I see so many really well-behaved and trained dogs in town, as well as people bringing puppies out to properly socialize them.

thanks ita, Lee & Amy. I'm not even sure which answer is best. I suspect discharge, except my sister is anxious about going home.

So.. $7K for a new A/C. Not at all how I wanted to spent my savings.

information libertarian
Discharge with a wound like you described would be stressful, but I think staying in the hospital would be more stressful for me.
I am back at work after 3 weeks away and have like 50 emails, maybe, and half of them are "today's schedule changed, go look at it" which I can delete without reading. It's weird how little email this workplace generates, but on days like today I do not mind!

I am sitting on the filter that just show's me my boss's emails. I can see the count from specific departments or "reply now!" people, but even the weekend makes me nervous to view my list as a whole. Hopefully getting off the mailing list of my old department will help.
I'm trying to update status reports, which is the thing at work I'm worst at, and I got distracted by Victoria Falls and the Devil's Swimming Pool. When I recover from that, it's to start shivering again. I cannot dress for the summer A/C here this year. Severe lack of focus so far.
