Small comment
Why is it? Why is it that only when the dishes are pilled high and the apartment needs to be cleaned, that Veronica becomes sick? Why is it that Veronica gets morphine and I get a pile of dishes? Why is it that the cat needs to go outside more often when Veronica's sick? Oh right. Of course, the cat's trying to escape from Veronica. But, why the rest? Just a thought.

Always the first.....
So nothing exciting has been happening here lately, which is why we haven't been blogging. And Neil actually pointed that out to Joan the other day. So I guess I decided that I felt the need to blog, and therefore something "exciting" happened. Well not really exciting, but at least something worth telling people about.
Yesterday morning (Dec. 11th); and I will quickly mention that it is incredibly green here; I woke up with horrible pains in my stomach. I got up, fed the cat, went to the washroom and went back to bed, feeling a bit better. And then I got up to go to work, and those pains were back. So I took a hot shower and went to work (8am).
Taking the bus, when you are not feeling 100% is always an interesting experience. I tried to not look like I was in pain. And so I was concentrating on my ipod. I especially started to concentrate on it when it crapped out on me, and decided to stop working!!!
Needless to say, I was slightly pissed off. But there are never two without three right?! Well, I got to work; by this point I had decided that I was doing payroll and then going to the hospital; well I signed into my computer, only to discover that my profile was not being found. I don't know where it was, but it was not to be found! And I needed my profile to do payroll, for a number of reasons, but anyways... I had to wait around while the IT guys fixed it. So I ended up getting to the hospital at 11am.
By this point in time I was doubled over in pain, but very calm; the staff at the Vic General are great! I sat down in the waiting room for 2 mins, and there was someone there to come and get me. They wanted to take blood for tests, and they had already gotten urine for other tests.
By this point Neil has arrived. Two people from work had taken me to the hospital. And as soon as Neil arrives in comes the nurse to get me. Funny enough, Neil shares an office with a guy named Jeff, Jeff's girlfriend is a nurse, and her name is Paulina. So Paulina, my nurse brings me out back, I get to put on one of those wonderful blue backless jobbies... and so the fun begins.
They give me my exam, and decide that they are going to give me an ultrasound to find out if it is my appendix. Well in order to do this, they decide that they need to dull my pain. So they hook me up to an IV and give me some gravol and morphine. This is how I spent my day, doped up to feel no pain.
And so in the end, my appendix decided to stay hidden; which apparently is a good thing; and I went home. However, if I am in any pain today I am to go back.
So everyone wish me no pain!!!
Oh, and Greg gets here on Monday night, so we should have stuff to write about then too. :D
