Tonsillectomy

I abhor hospitals. The sterile stench of hospital equipment makes me sick. The rooms are depressing. The stiff beds and miniscule television with four working channels are not enough to keep anyone comfortable. To make matters worse, if you put all of that negativity into one ball, and add terrible service, you've got yourself one crappy hospital stay.

Alright so yesterday, October 21, 2008, I had my tonsils removed. For some time, I had been suffering from a group of small crevices in my tonsils which not only looked disgusting, but also gathered some disgusting things. Every time I ate something, particles of food would get stuck in the crevices and days later I would hack up small greenish-yellow balls of stinky proportions. Yeah... the food WAS rotting in my throat. Disgusting, huh? Not only that, but I would also find myself suffering from a series of throat infections throughout the year which was very annoying. It got worse when I started hacking up the small balls of nastiness at work AND at school and so I decided that it was time for me to get my tonsils removed.

I refuse to go into the details of what happened during my stay at the hospital because it was long and grueling with some of the worst hospital service I had ever witnessed, but I will say that my mother is super mom AND that the medicine I was given was wonderful.

I am thankfully home now and my throat feels as if I have swallowed a series of hard cookie crumbs that have lodged themselves where my tonsils used to be, and my legs and butt cheeks are in a lot of pain from being in bed for two days straight, but other than that, I am glad to be home. I'm still getting great medicine AND I get to eat chocolate pudding, chocolate ice cream, and strawberry Jello without having to feel guilty about it at all. I now also have time to stay home and relax which is something I have not been able to do for some time now due to a few problems I have had at home, and being busy with school and work. I think I'll start on my writing and possibly level my character to 70 before Wrath of the Lich King comes out.

Till then...
