The surgery

It is confirmed. I have to reschedule. Shit.

Hole in my stomach

Just when I thought I'd been feeling better, my body breaks down and I feel this immense pain and discomfort weighing me down.

"Take the antibiotics after food."

In all my years of medicine consumption, that translates to an hour after eating. So I called my GP today to whine about the emptiness in my stomach and how heavy my chest feels after popping the pills. I was groggy most of yesterday so I didn't notice the pain till much later.

She said I had to come in for consultation.

It turns out that the antibiotics were to be taken IMMEDIATELY after food. Information that would have been useful 2 days ago because my insides are feeling extremely hollow now.

Blah dee blah dee blah... it seems like I might have to postpone Friday's scheduled surgery. Damn.

P.S. Dear Dr Nut, please don't quit your day job. You might suck at it but I think you make an even worse comedian.

Reach out for the sunrise

It's 12:22am and I'm awake. There are 2 possible reasons why:

a) I've slept most of the last 2 days thanks to this bug.
b) I actually stayed awake to see the Duran Duran performance on this episode of Vegas.

I am feeling better. But Simon Le Bon wasn't so hot tonight.

Goodnight.
