Post-op

I am now tonsil-free. The post-op pain is indeed as advertised, but apparently, I have a good tolerance for pain and I'm not going crazy. It's just so uncomfortable to swallow. You know that it's not going to be pleasant when your doctor tells you that he would be very happy if you could take down water over the weekend. LOL. I thought: I'm fucked -- really? Water? I think I'm going to lose weight this week...

Mental note: I could have sworn I was in the set of ER this morning. Some of those surgeons walking around (including mine) were damn cute! Clooney doctors do exist people! In abundance! I was thinking: are you a doctor or a model? Can I take your picture?

Anyway, the part that I didn't like (aside from the pain of course) was being woken up by the sound of children crying in pain. Actually, the whole waking up thing was unpleasant as I felt that they were rushing me before I was back to my senses -- a nurse gave me a post-op rundown but I had no idea what she was talking about. Oh, I do remember: No sex when I get home. Damn! I had plans.

In the above picture, I'm very happy to model the latest in ambulatory care fashion...

The shirt I wore to the infirmary -- how appropriate! (Taken 5:30 AM)

Heading back home -- yeah, still trying to be fabulous, but OMG, I'm a mess!

Here's a better picture to show that I'm home and A-OK! Jell-O is my friend!

Depending on how I feel in a bit, I most likely will not blog for a couple of days -- but who knows. I will read your comments since it makes me feel good and loved. Baby-sit me virtually while I heal. I'm just here. LOL. I've also sworn off speaking for now since that's also uncomfortable. While giving directions to the driver an hour ago I had to say "One Sixteen and Lexington Trenta Minuto" on a cellphone. I hated my life right there.

Try to behave, ok? I leave you guys in the able hands of the Forever Youngsters, the CCGs and other Rickey regulars.

I'm happy that I'm not miserable, when I possibly could well be. I'm glad I did this.

Okay, time to gorge on anti-biotics and pain-killers.

I love you all!
