ZIM IS ME!

Today a little bird told me that my ex girlfriend has a profile on a few datingsites, dating back from before we broke up. It seems my feeling of her having found someone else wasn’t that far off.

I feel used.

Been awhile now since I got back from the hospital. Wound hasn’t completely closed yet. About 15% is still open and it leaks fluid. So I’m still wearing the big band aids to keep my clothes from getting fluidy. Still, they took the stitches out which was kind of a weird feeling. Most of the wound has healed quite good though.

Pain’s completely gone for awhile now as well. When I just got home I couldn’t even get up from the couch because of the pain.

Have been having problems sleeping too, but it isn’t operation related. I just can’t get to sleep. I went to bed 3 hours ago and I haven’t slept a minute. That’s why I’m now updating this blog, not that anyone reads it (I sometimes check the stats and the number of hits is really pathetic. Oh well, it’s not like this is my job or anything).

Except for the potato and the weed this bit pretty much sums it up.

I only smoke weed when I need to,
And I need to get some rest,
I confess, I burnt a hole in the mattress,
Yes, yes, it was me, I plead guilty,
And on the count of three I pull back the duvet,
Make my way to the refrigerator,
One dry potato inside, no lie
Not even bread, jam,
When the light above my head went bam!
I can’t sleep, something’s all over me,
Greasy, insomnia please release me,
And let me dream about making mad love on the heath,
Tearing off tights with my teeth.
But there’s no relief,
I’m wide awake in my kitchen,
It’s dark and I’m lonely,
Oh, if I could only get some sleep,
Creaky noises make my skin creep,
I need to get some sleep,
I can’t get no sleep…

I have the feeling this year’s xmas is going to suck. Sure, I’m spending it with my best friend/business partner and family and the day after with my mom, and the day after that we’re off to play some Settlers of Catan, but it’s not quite optimum, is it? Not exactly how I planned on spending it this year. Still, I’m glad I’ve got some good friends helping me out.

Still not sleepy…

WordPress have finally fixed the mass upload script, so here we go!

Well, I’m home. Going to bed now.

The doctor told me I can go home. I have to wash out the wound 3 times a day and take painkillers and anti-inflammatory drugs for about a week.

I’m now waiting to be discharged so I can go home.

Was rolled out of the operation room around 23:00, and into the recovery room. And around midnight back to the normal room. Operation was good and clean. It looks like I might go home today.

I feel fine, no queeziness, no pain (oother than ofcourse the wound in my side). I even had some tea & biscuits at 4 in the morning.

Ok, so it is appendicitis, and I was going to get operated on 6 hours ago, but the surgery before mine went into overtime and then someone came along who just had to have a c-section and was given my spot.

It’s now 6 hours after I was going to get my appendix removed and I still got it. It’s not exactly going as planned. This point in time also marks 31,5 hours without food or drink.

So the doc’s just been round. He was coming in to tell me they’re going to take me away to surgery, but since the constant pain’s deminished they’re not that keen on it anymore. The ct scan did show an enlarged appendix which would indicate appendicitis, but because the pain’s deminished so much since yesterday, they’re having another chat about it.

It’s now 23 hours since last I ate something and they’re serving lunch. But I’m still not getting anything to eat. I’m starving!

CT scan went alright. They gave me a cd with the scan on it. I just can’t view it now because my Eee doesn’t have a cd drive.

No news yet, waiting on the doctor…

The night went by alright I suppose. I don’t think I’ve kept the other people in my room awake by my snoring. They gave me painkillers in suppository form, but I didn’t take it. Don’t quite like that.

They took another 3 vials of blood this morning and I had to give another urine sample. It’s not easy taking a wee when you haven’t had anything to drink over the past 16 hours. The saline drip is providing me with water, so at least I won’t dehydrate.

I thought they were gojng to take me to the ct scan @ 10:00, but it’s passed that time now and still nothing.

More to come.
