Well, I'm out of the hospital

I just spent 3 days and 3 glorious nights at *beautiful* Self Memorial, for a glorious midweek vacation due in no small part to a bum appendix.

I was at work, doing paperwork, when I noticed some annoying abdominal pain. I'd had pain before, but this was new. So, I begged for a day off, then went to my doc. He sent me to a surgeon, who then sent me to the emergency room to check in for some tests. Then they sent me down for some tests, which involved a wonderful trip in and out of the CT. All told - acute appendicitis, necessitating immediate surgery, so I got rushed into the OR, stat. I had some cutie nurses, and I've had more people seeing my bare ass than I'd cared to, but that's okay, 'cause I work out.

So, in case anyone's been wondering about me, I've been in the hospital. I now have three nice incisions in my stomach that are stapled shut and hurt like MFers, but I got all next week off. So, good job, appendix; you did good.

After a few days, I'll hope to get back to some daily posting. This Friday, I hope I'll the All Day post up. If not, I'll put two up to make up for it later.
