@naporeon and @makershot told me about their team name on Bastille Day. It was Bastille Magnolias.
yeah, they always have awesome team names
@Munkus Beaver - You're a pro. Yeah, it was just about exactly 9 hours. Of which 8 of them I was practically dying of thirst, but they couldn't give me anything to drink.
Yet when I had to drink the solution for the CAT scan it was mixed with water (then I had a shitty reaction to it). I pointed that out and asked if I couldn't get a little and they said no.
Logic--
Evidently I had a combination of food poisoning and "a horrible case of the flu" apparently.
It will likely be a long time before I look at seafood or hollandaise the same. Just thinking of either makes me almost retch. :S
I still feel shitty, though not nearly as bad as then, obviously.
The reason for the "No water" thing is "Just in case we have to do emergency surgery" because having any amount of stuff in your stomach will be an issue.
Of course, one nurse once said "We can't give water to patients being admitted in the ER, sir." She then opened a cupboard which had clearly visible plastic cups and walked out of the room.
EDIT: How long was your wait time in the ER before you got seen?
EDIT2: I'm guessing you drank the barium solution to make your intestines more visible? Tastes like shit and you basically have to chug the shit quick, and one thing every 15 minutes?
Not too long before I saw the nurse, although it was about 30-45 minutes before I got an IV after the triage doctor.
Yeah, I dunno why the barium fucked with me this time, but it made me pretty sick.
@Theidar Oh... see that's actually pretty useful information. Still sucks, but now at least I know.
OP updated w/ latest matches
Thanks, a significant number of people get sick from barium(or gastrograffin whichever they had you drink). It's great because you give it to people with nausea and vomiting or diarrhea to find out what's wrong and it's side effects are nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.
Hmmmm a Think Geek package has arrived at my apartment. Of course, it's the one day I'm not there :P I don't remember ordering anything recently, so perhaps this is a gift! Update shortly.
Assumption correct! My Satan has purchased me the illustrious BAG OF HOLDING!
My roommate (who opened it and snapped the photo in my absence) said there was no message, so my Satan is still a mystery! But thank you, mysterious gifter!
i have this bag and it is incredible
Same bag, same Zero hoodie, soon Kusu we shall be indistinguishable from each other.
So! Got home from school today to find a package from amazon on the table (I'm assuming my roommate got it and it didn't spontaneously appear but I'm not ruling that out yet).
Well, let's take a look inside!
Hooooly Christ there's a lot in there! Let's take a look!
Yaaay! I love Hark a Vagrant! Now I can get my history webcrumblics without the internet!
ooh, Persepolis! I've heard a lot of good things about these books, definitely looking forward to cracking them open.
Music! Gorillaz! Excellent! This is their one album I didn't have yet so now I've got the complete set.
Ass creed! :shock:
Looks like there's going to be some murdering on the docket tonight!
I don't see any name on the note attached, but thank you so much secret satan, whoever you are!

So I finally get a package redelivered that the USPS "tried to deliver" then took to the Post Office.
I mean, I have a front door and I have an apt office where people regularly drop off packages. But they choose to be different. Shocking how they're going bankrupt...
But I digress... When I get it, I realize this isn't the same size as the package I was expecting.
OH CRAP... it's from Satan! :O
That's pretty big...
(that's what he said)
Oh Ho!
Holy crap! Real knives! Finally! Had these on my list for forever, but never got them until now! Weee!
Yesss! A lot of my old baking stuff was left behind in Seattle due to space/weight and shipping costs. Finally, my kitchen, she is reborn!
And my Satan is revealed to be the great doctor @Theidar
Helping diagnose my ER woes AND shipping me delightful holiday gifts, thank you!
And yes, the handcrafted marshmallows were awesome.
I did share with coworkers, however, as I couldn't eat all of them by myself. ;3

So I'm a horrible person and didn't get my box shipped out today, but in my defense it's because while I was out & about I got my satan another present.

So today I found a box at my door, so I brought it in and put it on my desk

My Satan is SCHIDE, thank you Schide for the shiny packages I am about to rip the hell open
Lets dig it all out and see what we have
Hey that really is a lot of stuff, god damn. Very curious about what the batteries in the lower left are for.
Well let's start with the tastiest looking thing
some god damn chocolate covered pretzels oh my god they are so good
Okay that's a good start, but lets not go crazy here. Wait. What is this? Oh man oh man ohmanohman

So my gifts showed up from my Satan! I wish my phone would connect to my PC so I could upload them!
I got a nice tin of Maple Ice Mints, which I am very quickly munching my way through, two L.E. Modesitt books, Snow Crash and seasons 1 of Venture Bros. and Metalocalypse! Thank you, Mint!

Man, people are getting awesome presents!
I am going to go use my munchstache cookie cutters right now. I am so excited.

I have to apologize for not writing a more thorough card but I was just about to leave for the post office when I realized I had forgot to write anything, so...
Just assume that I gave you you stuff either because I thought you'd like it or I like it and hoped you would like it. Or something.
But glad you like everything!

these pretzels are so good but they are finite in number
Yay! @ketbra I'm glad you like your presents! I'm putting together something a bit more personalised that I'll send myself. Since it'll be coming from Australia, I wanted I make sure you had some gifts prior to Christmas

When I saw the bakeware on your list and was like:
Neville is in need of baking materials! This must be fixed immediately!
Super glad you liked everything.
