Hi everyone, it's Cass again with another quick April update!
She had a difficult night, unfortunately. She was in a great deal of pain, and consequently was unable to sleep.
We just chatted via text; she feels a bit better, but is still quite uncomfortable. Hopefully it will be short-lived.
In positive news... she took her first steps today! Yea!!!
"Three laps around the room, sis!" she reported. I told her how proud I was of her... but she had fallen asleep again. :c) (I will forgive you, sis... *this* time. lol)
Her father stopped by today before departing for his return home. (Another friend is taking her home when she is discharged.) Once again I am so, so impressed with how wonderful he has been this entire journey. Why, I may even lop off one or two years of *my* Christmas list that they rightfully owe me, as their Irish-American daughter.
OK, probably not. But the fact that I was considering it speaks volumes. :c)
No doubt this is what everyone would expect from our April, but her sense of humor is intact, Here is one exchange from yesterday:
April: On waking after surgery I requested Doritos and Diet Pepsi... stat
Cass: And... ?
April: Received two saltines water.
Cass: Be sure to tell them you're never coming back.
April: I m sure they will lose a Michelin Guide star as a result of this.
Cass: No doubt. Logging on to Yelp right now to express my outrage on your behalf.
And one more from last night - this one a bit more adult (i.e. what constitutes 99% of our conversations). :c)
April: Hi sis. Waiting to get a shot. In considerable pain.
Cass: I'm sorry, sweetie. :c( Hope it is temporary. Please let me know when you feel better.
April: Will do. Remember that scene in Alien?
Cass: I was thinking of Scanners, but your reference also works.
April: Not my head that hurts, actually. lol
Cass: :D
April: APB - missing hot dog, short furry man, Identified by witness.
Cass: He goes by Dick. Dick Hertz.
And just in case we hadn't thoroughly revealed ourselves as the degenerates we both are, here is the video I promptly sent April... as soon as I finished laughing, that is. :c)
More updates and depravity to follow! Not necessarily in that order, of course... ;-P
