TAN#155: TANkful Yanti's still alive (Page 25)

Ah ha! You're STILL still here.

Overall much better, still up and down a bit, but that's to be expected. The hard part now is putting a leash on myself.

Sounds like an awesome vaca to me.

Go to Toronto. Drink a lot tonight. Puke on his shoes.

And keep sending those resumes out

You know me so well

Kido - 2011-12-02 8:42 AM I miss my coffee. it's been almost 48 hours since I had any! Plus I'm starving. I'm jonesing gor some eggs bennie and bacon.

no coffee or food allowed??� or just no good food allowed??

They don't allow anything after midnight the day day of your surgery. So when I got out at 6pm it had almost been 24 hours. They have me jello and even a sandwitch to eat and the wife got me a big cookie from the cafeteria at 9pm. But that's not NEARLY what I'm used to from what I was eating during IM training.

well it's the day after, go get some NOMS!

The mention of noms made me think of White Castle. That sounds SO good right now. That's on the bucket list when I go home to STL for Christmas to see my parents.

White Castle >>> Steak and Shake.Five Guys beats them all though, but isn't cheap.

I haven't been to a steak and shake in forever. I used to go to five guys all the time! The best pizza. I'm also going to hit up Imo's and Ted Drews. The usual spots.

Why is it the first thing out of the hospital, you want nothing more than a cheeseburger? I think I've done this 5 times now. Bike accident, 2x achilles surgery, 2x colonoscopy; I have made Susan hit the drive through on the way home.

Not me, but usually when I've just been ejected from a hospital it was for something that involved a lot of puking and abdominal procedures.

However, I have gotten through the majority of difficult races thinking about cheeseburgers afterwards. And piglets.

I like to think of myself knowing you.

I am thankful that I have the ability to live the life that I do. I am thankful that I have the resources to pay my bills comfortably. I am very thankful for all that. I am thankful that I am employable/employed. I really am. I may complain about it a lot, but I do realize that I am very, very lucky. 

Thanks for the perspective check

To you and SharShar ... yes, I need to be tied to my bed.

And how often do you do it?

Excellent start. You can nibble the tips of my fingers, too.

*running for cover*

Sarcastic or not, I do need that some times

It's true that employers take advantage of the economy, and employees. Which is a huge reason there is no professional loyalty anymore. Very few people are lifers these days, because people understand that if the company thought it would be advantageous to get rid of you, they would... so employees think that if it is advantageous to them to leave, they will. Kinda sad, but hey, it's business, right?

sadly, i didn't even look at the price today of the brownie balls.

Talking to Latin men now?

 ha

@ kido...i went to williams sonoma...holy  cow...what they want for an espresso maker. i could buy at starbucks for two years, straight...every day, and it still wouldn't be what the price of that was. i have wanted one though, an espresso maker. i noticed a few posts up...you're on meds? sorry to hear you're not feeling well.

for the group...what is wawa?

I'm killing time in my hospital room, hence the flurry of posts. I'm also posting on my smart phone, so lots of typos. But I am on some pain meds! And low on sleep. I don't think these are the fun pain meds though. I don't feel pain, but I don't feel dreamy either.

since you have nothing better to do...ha could you retell why you're there?

In a nuttshell, a annoying little case of thyroid cancer, so here to let the butchers hack it out (actually, my doctor is fantastic). They grabbed a couple lymph nodes while they were digging around in there. It's a nuisance really, doc days I can be training again in a week.

 

omg...i had no idea. wow. i will be praying for a full recovery very soon. you'll be done with everything, after this hospital trip?

Very sadly, they'll need to fry him for a while, too. So keep the prayers coming ...

Only the good die young so Kido and myself are in the clear.

I'm not going drinking with my boss(es), so no puking on THEIR shoes... but I can puke on my friend's shoes if you think that'll help?
