 "She's alive! SHE'S ALIVE!" BWAHAHAHAHA

B has made it through surgery people. What a long fucking day it was. We left the house at 9:20. Arrived at 9:40. First went to the wrong building. Fun. Made B cranky because we walked to the other. Now remember, they haven't had anything to eat since 7pm Thursday. We're already 12 hours into hangry my good friends. And the lord knows, we don't ever want to make this woman hangry. Finally get where we need to be at 10 and they immediately take her back for prep. That's the last I see of her until 6pm. 8 hours of sitting and waiting. I did go to the cafeteria around 11 for a sandwich but otherwise, I found a little corner, setup my laptop, and just did some work to distract me. Shitty internet at the hotel, but enough I could distract with work and other crap. She was done with surgery around 3 and the doc came and walked me through everything. Hey guess what? In addition to all the other shit wrong with her, they also found ovarian endometriosis. Even more reason why that shit needed to come out.

Once in a room, I made sure first and foremost she got food. I know the priorities. All the anesthesia had long worn off and she was hungry. Got food sent up (grilled chicken Caesar salad, mashed potato and gravy, broccoli, rice kripsie treat). Priorities. She has two tiny little incisions (5mm) on either side and one the doctor managed to hide in the belly button. This guy is good. I seriously wish he could be my doctor. They were giving her some pain meds as I was rolling out at 7:45. Got home a little after 8, more cards in the mail, thank you all. Fed cats, made me food, went to bed. 

Heading back this morning around 11 to pick her up. But first I am going to the grocery store to get some easy to eat stuff for the week - soups and pre-packaged good stuff from the fancy store. I want there to be a variety available. I also need to change the sheets and keep the cats out of the bedroom. Hence my being back up so early.

Oh and don't forget to be solemn today to mark that 20 years ago a bunch of people died by being killed by another bunch of people and the other people we attacked pretending it was the bad people but it really wasn't. Mission Accomplished!
