I'm back....and I'm feeling much better now!

[ash_pixie]

So Friday night, instead of going out, I went to the hospital. Satruday night, instead of dancing, I was sleeping off anesthisia from surgery and exhaustion from being up for more then 24 hours with two short naps. Sunday night, well, more sleep, and a fight not to rip out my IV lock that they refused to remove until I was released--even though my beeping friend and its bladder of cool saline had already been exhiled from my room.

And now? I'm home--minus my apendix. I'm sore, a little bloated (due to swelling and the air they put in you so they can see where they are working), a bit stiff and slow on my feet...but I'll mend. Thanks for the kind thoughts, phonecalls and visits from friends and loved ones, they helped keep me from being bored stiff!!

And now I have to figure out how to fill the two to three weeks I'm not allowed to lift a thing--and therefore do my job.

Reasd books, watch movies, write, hunt for jobs online, just relax! :)

I was about to invite you over for dinner until I remembered that my kitchen is in pieces.

Well, thanks for the thought. Your kitchen will be back in better form then ever very soon--and then I'll venture over to your place and let you cook for me, ok? For now, I'm tired. I think I need another nap.

Glad to hear you are ok. *massive hugs*

Now is the perfect time to look for a new job!

Oh I know, and I will---after I get past the constant exhaustion!

Glad to hear you are feeling better!

Thanks, I'm glad to be feeling better. How are things with you guys?

[the-siobhan.livejournal.com]

I'm not going to the blood bank today. :-)

oi vey. glad to hear everything is on the mend!
Lemme know if you need anything. I'm just upstairs and I don't mind in the slightest. ^_^

Thanks. You know, you never really realize how shitty you felt until you start to feel better? It is taking me a while though to train the little dog not to jump on the big, puffy tummy. He keeps trying to clean the spot on my wrist where the IV was. He missed me so much, but for being someone who gets really bored really quickly if I'm gone more then say 10 hours, he was really a good boy while I was in the hospital.

As far as anything I need, give me a few daysand a shower and I might not mind some company....

Yay for getting better!

[ash-pixie.livejournal.com]

I agree. How's your cold coming along?

BTW, how would you feel about working in/helping run a coffee shop around the Queen and Roncesvalles Antique store district??

[ravensee.livejournal.com]

I still have this silly cold. :(

That sounds interesting....if I had the time right now, but I wouldn't mind looking into it! Send me the info: ravensee@gmail.com

I'll go for a little walk (or maybe a streetcar ride) and get the info today and let you know. I only saw it in passing on Thursday? and wanted to go back by it to check it out later in the weekend, but that was yet another plan thwarted by an "organ" the size of a pinky finger.

I would mention that we're hiring again, but it's mostly shift work right now.

I have heard that we're going to have some basic IT support openings in another month or so. It's nothing glamourous, mostly plugging in keyboards and replacing mice, but it's nine to five and reasonably stable. If that kind of thing is at all interesting then either watch the joblist or let me know and I can look out for you.

[ash-pixie.livejournal.com]

Cool, I'll keep an eye out--but just in case I miss anything, if you do see something, pass it along. I don't have much of an IT background, but plugging in computers and adding hardware and input devices is something I'm quite comfortable with.

Oh, shit...

Glad to hear you're better.
