Spring and I went
to visit Gregory in the hospital
tonight. He was awake and coherent and finally in a proper
hospital room; until something like 5:00 pm today he was stuck in room 7 of
the emergency ward since his arrival. From the explanation there seemed to
be a shortage of beds at the hospital.
On the good side he has the whole room to himself.
Around 9:00 pm the nurse somes in to change the bed sheets. We leave the
room, but it was plainly audible that Gregory was not happy about
the situation, what with six broken ribs and a snapped clavicle. Half an
hour and three nurses later, the bed sheets are fresh and Gregory is
receiving the Oh-So-Blessed Pain Killers. Spring leans over to Gregory and
says, “Gregory, we need to work on your blood-curdling scream. Something
that will definitely tell the nurses to back off!” Greg found that
quite amusing.
Fifteen minutes later he's snoring away in drug-induced dreams. We stay for
a bit longer, then head on our way.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go
ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or
entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent
links to that entry only. The format for the links are
simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are
interested in, say 2000/08/01,
so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day
portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's
intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the
page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in
using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If
you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that
important.
