First day back at work after my adventures in health care!
Now that I look back on it, my EMT was kinda cute...
I think the closest thing we have to a conclusion is a combination of dehydration, electrolyte imbalance, stress and some sort of stomach condition. The last bit was figured out because the symptoms of dizziness, rapid heartbeat, shallow breathing and general oh'shittery would reemerge (to a lesser degree) whenever I ate something. I really does thrill me that this is more akin to indigestion than any actual heart problems.

To all who responded, emailed or otherwise left note: Thank you for affirming you prefer me more alive than dead.

On Alito: honestly, all this angst at the Democrats is understood, but misplaced. Being mad at the puppet on the left hand when it comes to procedure. Justice is not obtained by any law.
Keep fighting, or capitulating, or whatever it is you think is your thing to do. As time passes, the less I'm convinced the solution will be found within this particular system as it stands.

I'm not sure on the 'why' of the date, but tonight I'm going to raise a glass to the fallen pope.

I don't know... if you died but then became a zombie, that might be Ok. There's no one I'd rather have eat my brains than you.

I"m not scheduled to be zombified for some time, for better or worse.

Thanks for the sentiment, man. <3

Shut up! Go back to bed, America. Your government is in control. Here's Love Connection. Watch this and get fat and stupid. By the way, keep drinking beer, you fucking morons.

You smell better alive. I mean, assuming you've showered lately.

Seriously, I'm glad you're okay. *whew*

[scottopic.livejournal.com]

As of yesterday, yes, I do smell better than I would dead.

Thanks!

Dead Scotts aren't much fun. I prefer you alive.

[scottopic.livejournal.com]

You do? Why???? :o
What nefarious plans have you wrought??

oops, i missed the other one. glad you're not dead! drink gatoraid to ward off electrolyte imbalance

It's my new beverage of choice, barely edging out Dran-o!

Slow down sonny. We kinda want to keep you in an ambulatory state for a bit longer. I'm sure the Greek would be most upset if you kicked off due to lack of preventive maintenace.

WTF is your icon about?

Badgers? We don't need no stinking Badgers.

Your EMT wasn't a young blond girl was it?

[scottopic.livejournal.com]

No, a redhead. I think I was just glad she knew what was going on when I had no idea.

My roommate is an EMT and she works out there. Supposedly, she is the only cute, strait, female EMT is Dakalb Co. hehehe.
I’m glad you’re OK. I always say better safe than sorry when it comes to your health. I put off going to the emergency room once and went to the doctor the next day instead. It turned out my colon had ruptured and I should have gone to the emergency room the night before. Had I gotten care sooner the infection wouldn’t have been so bad. Had I not gone at all it would have killed me. So I think you were smart to get your pain checked out.

Just because I haven't had a chance to yet:
I wanted to affirm that I, too, prefer you alive to dead.

[unrepentant.livejournal.com]

You die at the scene, I'm rolling your body.

But, with, you know, love.

Glad you're feeling better, dude.

Of course we prefer alive.
