Holy hell, meara! I hope your leg heals quickly.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen
Oh meara, how awful!! I'm so sorry this happened, and that your night in the hospital was so horrible. Hooray for Buffista rescues.
Wishing you all the best.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Ugh, re the opioid puking. Morphine does the same thing to me (and of course if you're getting your opioids in a hospital setting, guaranteed you're already more than miserable enough already anyway without adding puking to the list). I'm so sorry.

Because books.
Oh meara, you poor thing. I'm so sorry! And what everyone has said about an easy trip home and quick healing.
Just FYI for Buffistas in the Greater Philadelphia area, I am on call for emergencies here. :-)
flea, I'm so glad you went! And plus, you get to say told you so to Caspar about your internet friend.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
There's been a fire about 5 miles east of me most of today. The wind seems to be mostly to the South, so not particularly worrying, but seeing the smoke continue to pile up is not pleasant.

I'm not seeing so much smoke, yay! And my lawn is mown. It still looks terrible and unkempt, but at least it isn't all tall weeds

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Oh, meara. That's so miserable.
I can't offer much practical help from here, but if you like I can come up with some alternate stories for when you are asked what happened. For instance... Jeff Gillooly.

Mostly right now I'm trying to figure out how I'm going to like, live, for the next several weeks. When I can't live at home with all my stairs. :( going to stay with a friend for a few days but hate to feel so dependent on them and I won't be able to go do shit...
