sudden disappearances
Mar. 26th, 2014 11:37 amYou might have noticed my lack of internettage.
Last week, I spent most of my time lying on a couch and groaning, wishing I felt well enough to go outside and actually interact with the world. This week, God answered my prayers by landing me in hospital, where I can interact with as many nurses as my heart desires.
(Nothing serious. I'm just having digestive issues, and they want to keep me on a drip for a few days.)
It's rather unnerving being in a foreign-language hospital. For one thing, I've discovered that my language skills plummet whenever I feel dizzy – leading to a lot of baffled nurses wondering why I'm unable to comprehend things I understood five minutes ago. And for another, I'd feel a lot more calm about taking medicine if questions like "Did they actually say this was a suppository, or was that just my imagination?" didn't keep occurring to me.
Anyway, still in hospital, but now with limited internet. Hurrah!
