Done, for realsies, oh please make it so

Thanks for the interweb love! I'm home from the hospital, considerably more sliced than I had anticipated but so ridiculously glad to have the surgery behind me. I had naively assumed that this procedure would be of the "one or two wee l'il cuts deep down in your belly button" variety, but alas, the powers that be had their hearts set on something a bit more "giant robot machine with multiple arms that will cut you up five times across the center of your abdomen." So. My days of hitting up the reference desk in my halter top are apparently over. At least they were good while they lasted.

Recovering now, back to work tomorrow. As you do.

I'll be back later to demand answers from all my nurse friends about the fable of "Yes It Is Imperative That We Wake You Up at 4:00 AM to Draw Blood, Then Again at 4:25 to Take Your Vitals, and Then Again at 5:00 To Announce That We Are Giving You A Fresh Glass of Water."

*snort* so it's not just recently-delivered moms that get the joy of a 20 minute check-in cycle while in the hospital? Good to know.

I haven't been worried too much about this because you were calming me with your humor. But I want to send more warm wishes to you because I think it must've been scarier than we realize. xo.

This can't have effect in actual fact, that is exactly what I consider.
