I'm in the ER for the second time in 3 weeks, and they're going to admit me today. [View all]

I have a bad infection and I'm pretty high on morphine.

Not sure how long I'll be here, but I may not be posting for a bit.

So you all behave yourselves.

If I croak, you are all in my will for 2 dollars each, until my entire estate of $32 is exhausted.
