its official

It's official, I definitely have the best excuse for delayed posts ever...

I was in the hospital for three days recieving i.v. antibiotics for a nasty spider bite which developed an infection and started spreading up my leg...it looked even more disgusting than it sounds. It was my first hospitalization in eighteen years, and needless to say, I wasn't too happy about it.

I was also not happy about how many holes got poked in my flesh.


Nevertheless there are a few things that I am already missing about St. Paul's hospital...


-the reprieve from the Daily Quest to Find Toilet while out of the house during the day between castings


-the window over my bed (I lived in a windowless cave of a room for a month when I first arrived in HK)


-the lack of spiders in my bed which lead to hospitalizations, as well as the lack of roaches, ants, and small unidentifiable bugs which I squish whenever I spot small black specks moving across my computer screen


-not having to pay for water or TP


-operational and sanitary plumbing (aka a toilet that doesn't plug and shower that doesn't flood)...I'm noticing a recurring toilet-based theme in this list...


-the other luxuries of living somewhere where other people do everything for you


-last but not least, this menu...


No, I never tried the 'grass crap'
