As some of you may know, I have been sick this past week. This has been a sickness actually induced by the doctor. Thanks, doc. I was informed that there was a miserably large kidney stone I had to confront before it turned evil and tried to kill me. The doctor planned a preimtive strike. Unfortunately for me, this entailed anesthesia and a stint that has to remain for the entire week. In case you didn't know, THIS SUCKS!! I have horrible back pain and cramping in my abdomen. Women - this feels like labor. Men - you have no idea. The meds for pain make me feel cloudy and stupid. Stupid like: My friends from Houston called to say that the insane decision to STAY in Houston DURING A HURRICANE actually turned out okay. I was relieved and happy they called. Then, when the doorbell rang and Betty Kuipers was standing there with a meal for dinner, I suddenly thought "Oh! Tim doesn't actually want to talk to me...I need to get dinner...Ummmmm....Okay....bye Tim...Glad you're alive......this food looks GREAT!"


Yes.


Stupid.
