It's a great room. A corner room with views on two sides. It does have this couch/table thing that I think is supposed to be able to be converted into an actual couch for overnight stays, but it looks terribly uncomfortable. The hospital probably has cots they can provide, but I haven't looked into it yet.
I have a two-bedroom apartment, however, that has one free bedroom, currently (since Terry is using the guest room). Anyone is welcome to my king size bed at any point if they come to visit. (As long as you aren't allergic to cats.) And you'll be next door to Calli! So there would be carpooling options, and the town buses are free. And there's always Uber/Lyft. (I live about 2.5 miles from the hospital.)
There are also several hotels within walking distance of the hospital, but they can get pricey.
Thanks for the fic recs!
Aargh. Nigel head of the theatre wants to know if I am better and wants to meet. I basically want to just throw him off a roof. I really just wanted to try a month with no theatre to see how it felt. Can I tell him to fuck off, politely, until December?
Also, gotta vent: they failed to perform a successful lumbar puncture on me this evening after NINE ATTEMPTS. I think they were going to keep trying, but I had to put a stop to the utter bullshit insanity.
So tomorrow I get it done under x-ray.
NINE?!? Oh, hell to the no.
Oh no. That sounds terrible
Dammit, amyth, that's awful. Who are these people? Isn't there some grizzled OB/GYN veteran who's been doing spinals on people in labor since forever they can drag in?
Seriously. Nine tries is way beyond okay. After two they should have called someone else in!
Sophia, tell him no! With glee!
So a reply like
Nigel, thank you for your concern. I can be available to meet after December 1st.
Would. Not be nutty? I honestly think I won't go back.
