Idiots.

Though sometimes that includes myself.

Why are we not surprised?

I never understood the need to display multiple US flags in your yard. We get it, you live in america. You love America. We get that too. Are you afraid someone will think you no longer wish to be American if you took your flags down?

Just like google promised to not be evil?

The best advice of keeping moving has already been suggested, but buy a real book, and maybe a crossword or other such like. Avoid technology.

I don’t know the answer to that.

Yeah that makes sense. It wasn’t something I had considered before the op.

Ah yes, I also remember having a sore throat after, but I don’t recall them telling me beforehand that they would intubate me.

I don’t know what they gave me. I don’t recall them ever telling me. I do know that my sleep for the next three weeks sucked due to pain, and an abscess that got a little bit out of control.

They told me they were starting to put me to sleep (can’t remember the exact words), and I must have gone under before they finished the sentence. Next thing I remember is waking up in the recovery ward, feeling completely at peace. The most peaceful I have ever felt in my life. I fell asleep again and woke up later in the same ward.
