Sicko in action.

Monday evening...did not go as planned. Fifteen minutes before I was supposed to leave for the day, blodhemn gave me a call because he'd had an accident at work (he slipped on a puddle of oil, fell into some metal shelving, and put a four-inch gash in his forearm) and wanted somebody who was going to be able to drive him home from the hospital after he got stitches because he didn't think he was going to be able to do so. I booked it out of work five minutes early, made it over to the hospital at 5:30, found Will, and sat down with him to wait for the doctors to sew him up. We were optimistic about getting out of there in an hour or two, because 1) the ER didn't look crowded and 2) HE WAS STILL ACTIVELY BLEEDING WTF.

Five hours later, Will finally got his stitches (all fourteen of them) and his tetanus shot. We left the hospital a bit before eleven. Superdouchetastic. D: The good news is that Will's mostly okay now, and since it's an open-and-shut worker's comp case he doesn't have to worry about paying for it.

Tiff and I wound up going over to the old apartment at about midnight and clearing the last of our stuff out. We dropped off the keys afterwards and did a little dance of joy, or would have if we hadn't been fuck-all tired and it hadn't been 1:30am.

Finished HP7 yesterday while at home sick. Vaguely disappointed. Needed moar Neville (then again, everything needs moar Neville--if the last book had been "Neville Longbottom and the Venomous Tentacula," I'd have read that shit in a heartbeat). Epilogue shitty, as I was warned. Rapidly cheered up by Transmetropolitan graphic novels, so it's all good, I suppose.

Maybe writing tonight? Hopefully? *crosses fingers*

Apparantly bleeding wounds aren't cause for concern in ERs because I have had to wait forEVER for stitches too. XD I guess unless you're passing out from the bloodrush they assume you can wait.

But anyway, best of luck to Will and to you on the homefront/sick area. Seriously, what is with everyone coming down with something after Otakon this year? Otaku = germs apparently.

Congrats on getting rid of ye olde hell hole though and on finishing HP (more power to ya since I can't bear the thought of slogging through it)! And writing sounds GOOD! XD I miss reading your work.

In my case, I think I picked the germies up at the hospital, since I was mostly fine by the next day.

Whaaaaaat does Brian want for his birthday? >:3 *totally failing at sneaky*

XD It's hard to know what he wants 'cause he's a pain like that. But, um, as I told Tiff, if you want to write him fanfiction, he likes:
Batman/Catwoman fics
Ranma/Akane fics
NaChoRo fic in some variation
Luffy/Nami fics

Otherwise, um, Batman-related items are always a plus. There's a couple of GNs he wants - Batman: Nightfall, Batman: Child of Dreams
And he is also interested in Batman: The Complete History by Les Daniels.

Alternatively, he's been looking at Crown Duel by Sherwood Smith and The Looking Glass Wars (book 1) by Frank Beddor as two possible fantasy paperback titles.

Heya -

Eek, that sucks. Glad he's okay.

Was wondering - would you and Tiff, (Emily, Brian, Will, etc., if you want to invite them along - on second thought, I can write in Emily's journal, durh) be interested in going glow golfing sometime at Owings Mills Mall? I know that sounds kind of random but it looked kinda fun.

Sounds like fun! Cheesy fun, but still fun. :D
