Well........I was off to a great start on Monday...and then somehow my 'beginning of the week/fresh start' enthusiastic state of euphoria' all came to a dramatic grinding halt, when I landed myself in hospital with a not so hospitable pair of medical staff.

Something is not quite right in the pit of my being (some gastro-intestinal issue yet to be diagnosed) Oh the pain. Good god. I was sure I was about to give birth to octuplet baby hippos. This seemed even more plausible following the first round of phentenol (morphine equivalent). I came home on wednesday with a severe case of post narcotic inebriation, the crutch of my pants torn (a so called dispute with the ambo guys)...and a packet of enemas.
