Greetings, fuckers. A quick post from the hospital wi-fi with the MacBook. Yes, hospital. We're waiting for katie to be discharged. On the weekend, she started feeling a bit ill. No big news there -- it happens a lot these days. (one day, an explanation into that remark will be made)
On monday night, she was thinking it was a UTI, a kidney infection, or worst yet, another stone. Keep in mind, she had a stone a year ago.
yesterday, she was in such writhing pain that her friend Lori drove her to the ER in Madison. I have very few complaints about our HMO as yet, but one of them is a lack of facilities anywhere near Beloit.
I got off wr0k early and went to the hospital. I then drove home to Beloit to grab a few things, let the dog out to take a shit, and then I drove back to Mad.
I wound up sleeping here all night. She's gotten a CT scan, and they've confirmed the existence of another 3mm stone in her left kidney.
Now here's the good part: it is a year, to the day, when she was last hospitalized for a kidney stone. But the even better part, according to the douchebags at UW Hopsital Endocrinology department, there's nothing that peculiar about that. (Like I said, one day I will explain what's been going on the last few months and our travails with various endocrinologists, but you don't want to hear it today, trust me. I don't have time to type it anyway.)
So yeah, sometime, last (rachel just called -- she's in Milwaukee Early) night, Greg and Chris made it to Beloit and are holed up there. Chris asked me for a place to get a car repair done, so I hope that works out.
I'm going to be bringing Katie home soon. Someone's gonna have to leave to pick up rachel. Maybe by the time I get home, Chris will have his truck fixed, then we can go into downtown MKE to the butcher shop to pick up the TUTap meat, meet up with Greg and Rachel, and then head up.
Yesterday for my last day at wr0k for a week, I wrote a 3000 line SQL script that didn't work, and on Monday servers were crashing all over the place.
Yes Sean, it's gonna be a long fucking day. Just another in a long fucking week. But soon, we'll all be at Witch Lake, and with a little luck, we'll all get the chance to unwind a bit.
Out for now, fuckers. Later.
