Man, Calli. Enjoy your stay? Gah.
Shoot, I meant to go to the gym but I didn't. Oops. Tomorrow.
Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? Oh right, that would be me. Back to work.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
Home from hospital. All went pretty well, though the surgery took a bit longer than planned, because it turns out I had a touch of endometriosis and didn't know it. Which explains certain symptom patterns I'd always just accepted as Normal For Me. And my anesthesiologist thinks I also have a touch of sleep apnea. The recovery team was a bit anxious about my heart rate and blood pressure (both high in the aftermath) and since I could sense their anxiety it made ME have a bit of a panic attack which made things worse, but once we got that sorted out and I made it to my room in recovery I suddenly became this model patient with nice normal to low blood pressure, no nausea, and manageable pain. The hospital had good wifi! And prompt room service with a varied selection of soothingly bland foods! I'm glad I was able to go home right on schedule, but as hospitals go it was really quite pleasant.
I've been home for about six hours, during which time I've eaten a bowl of soup and a salad, watched the first episode of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, re-read vol 1 of Unbeatable Squirrel Girl, and slept several hours. Tomorrow's goal=more Netflix and reading, plus a shower. Mainly my abs just hurt like hell, and you never realize just how much you use your abs every time you change positions until you have a bunch of little holes in them.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Good stuff, Susan! Glad all went well.

I'm glad that you're home and starting your recovery, Susan.

Great news, Susan, glad to hear it!

Oh yeah. I only had 3 teeny holes, one 3" slice and a small organ removed, but moving from anything resembling prone (defined as not right angle sitting) required complicated weirdass yoga. Walking was fine, but I confess I stood a lot while awake to avoid transitions. Heal well!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Susan, I'm glad you're home and settled in for maximum Netflixing!
Calli, do you need anything home-like from the water-having side of the line? Meanwhile, I'm relieved that you found a Liefur-friendly hotel and a Pokestop. I don't even have one of those within reach.

Susan - so glad it went well and that you are home, safe and sound.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Susan, glad everything went well and you're home safe and sound!
Calli, no water bad! Glad you and Leifur found a cat-friendly hotel for the interim.
I swear, I'm starting to think of stockpiling food and water. My neighbor was talking today about turning a particular hillock into a bunker. I said, uh, who owns that hill? She said, eh, they'll never notice. You know, I appreciate her enthusiasm, and if she does build a bunker, I want a few feet of space in it, so.
