ER

Earlier today I wasn't feeling well.  I was feeling so bad I ended up in the emergency room at the local hospital.   Long story short, I have a kidney stone.  Considering things that my imagination had conjured, a kidney stone is better.  The pain had subsided while waiting for tests.  I was released today with some prescriptions and walked out without assistance.   I needed assistance to get to the car and into the hospital.  Now I get to watch for the 3 mm stone to pass.

In other news I was taught a new game after dinner tonight.   It is called wikirace. Basically,  people start on one particular wiki page and race to a different, unrelated particular wiki page.  It was fun... and a little frustrating when I couldn't find cheese for a while on the milk page.  That is my happy for the day-well, and being alive and not in the hospital. 

What I really am is grateful.   K, Z, C, and E all helped me in one way or another to get to the hospital.  I don't even know if Four or Gideon knew what was happening.  The hospital staff was great, a little serious maybe,  but they tolerated my swearing -not at them- just about the pain.  K let people know.  If you are one of those people and I didn't get back to you, my apologies, going to the hospital and pain is tiring.

Today's temporary jewelry.




Stay safe.
