Hmm. I felt like they gave me a ridiculous number of pain pills when I left surgery. But now I'm awake in the middle of the night (yes, only about 48 hours after surgery) having woken in pain and taken more meds, thinking it's really only about 4-5 days worth. I'm supposed to take 1-3 pills every 4 or more hours and got 70 pills. Which is 6-18 pills a day. So that could be as little as 4 days, even though it seemed like a crazy amount of pills when I picked it up! I mean, maybe my pain will be controlled by Tylenol by then? But right now I'm the middle of the night, it doesn't feel that way. And I have nowhere else to whine in the middle of the night, and I feel y'all will understand and be helpful with your own experiences. (I mostly was taking 2, during the day today, and that was ok (not great, but I'm not expecting it to take alllll the pain away?) and 3 at night to help me sleep? But yeah, woke up 3-5 hours after my last dose all "owwww")

Meara, stay on top of the pain. Set an alarm ever 4 hours if you have to.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Also a person on the internet apologized to me!

Amazing!

We got lucky when it came to Michael.

Glad to hear it!

That sounds right to me.

In other news, I went to the club last night! With Laura and Brendon! And stayed up past 2! And slept until 9! All in all, a successful night.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Another problem: I keep waking up and the internet is not coming up with enough to entertain me but I am too out of it to read. Will need to figure this out...

Jigsaw Planet fills that not-too-thinky something-to-do niche for me.

Clearly it's not just on The Good Place that impossible things are happening!

Thanks Aurelia, I'll try that! I've been playing a lot of solitaire and am about to sign up for some additional tv/streaming services I think...get into some awful reality tv shows maybe?

I also submitted a personal ad on this Instagram personals thing. Who knows when it will get posted but I asked for cute people to send me pics or meet :)

I have to say, the method of cleaning your microwave by heating up water and letting it sit is nigh on miraculous. I need to stop cleaning the kitchen so I can cook dinner before D&D tonight.
