12 hours to go. i can barely wait.
i report tomorrow morning for surgery to fix my herniated discs, FINALLY!!
i might be worried if i wasn't so goddamned tired of the pain, and the bs of life in the medical industrial complex.
i am grateful to be able to afford this, and grateful to live in a time where this is considered piddly. but i can barely stand the wait.
well, wish me good drugs, eh lizards?

2. Turn my nightmares into dreams......
SISTER MORPHINE
(M. Jagger/K. Richards/M. Faithfull)

Here I lie in my hospital bed
Tell me, Sister Morphine, when are you coming round again?
Oh, I don't think I can wait that long
Oh, you see that I'm not that strong

The scream of the ambulance is sounding in my ears
Tell me, Sister Morphine, how long have I been lying here?
What am I doing in this place?
Why does the doctor have no face?
Oh, I can't crawl across the floor
Ah, can't you see, Sister Morphine, I'm trying to score

Well it just goes to show
Things are not what they seem
Please, Sister Morphine, turn my nightmares into dreams ...

17. heya lizards- i'm home
everything went pretty well. the surgery went longer cuz they found some bone spurs. the drugs were pretty good. still have a little tingly spot and some numbness where i had crushing pain before, but that is fading fast. post surg pain seems like nothing after what it was like before.
and hey, i am a little taller.
i am so happy.
