I feel like I’ve been really busy the last few days, when in actual fact they haven’t really been that busy but they have been relatively stressful.
The weekend was hot as fuckery, so there was a lot of swimming and a lot of sitting around on the couch complaining about said heat.
Then Loz got sick on Sunday night so we went to the Sandringham Emergency Department. It sucked. After 22 hours in there, they finally transferred her to the Freemasons Epworth. For Loz there was a lot of pain and morphine. For me there was a lot of sitting around at the end of her bed watching her sway in and out of conciousness.
She’s home now, feeling better and almost back to her old self.
Here’s a list of things that are annoying me lately-
- Sandringhams Emergency Department and the lack of empathy from any of the nurses. Don’t get me wrong, I know nurses are hard working underpaid folks, but seriously, they were so busy trying to swap shifts with eachother so they could get to Robbie Williams concert, they couldn’t be arsed attending to most of the patients. A strongly worded letter will be sent to the appropriate people about the whole Sandy ED debarcle.
- If you don’t live here, and someone who lives here doesn’t have a place on the couch, get the fuck up and let them have a seat. It’s really rude to let the people who actually pay rent here sit on the floor instead of their own couches.
- Bills, bills and more bills. Where are they coming from!?!?
- Distance
- Cat food that gets stuck on the kitchen lino
- My shitful mattress. It both sucks and blows. The purchase of a new mattress is getting imminent.
- Arseholes who leave bottles and rubbish on my beach. Take it home with you fuckers.
- My broken drawer.
- Nate continually downloading ridiculous amounts of crap onto my PC.
- My diminishing friendship with Greg.
Likewise, here’s a list of things I’m digging at the moment-
- Having a dog around the house. His name is Elvis and we’re dog sitting for 8 weeks. He’s so fun to have around and he’s been so wonderfully behaved. I know, after only having him for a few days, that I will cry when he leaves.
- The fact that the presences of a dog in the house has forced the kitties to band together to form a badarse feline army for their own preservation. I love it!
- The nurse at the Epworth last night. She was a gem and made Loz’s stay in hospital just a bit easier.
- Sitting in Loz’s hospital room last night and having 2 horn players, 2 singers and a real live Santa clause march into the room and perform Silent Night. It was entirely surreal! Plus it came with lollies from Santa! It was the cats pajamas!
- Hanging out with Michael. He’s so easy to be around and he makes me laugh. It’s really awesome to have a new friend.
- Club Dark “Mild and Creamy” chocolate. So good it makes me moist.
- Living with Nate and Loz.
- The beach!
