Here are the things I am willing to admit to having done today:

06:06 Getting ready for the parents to arrive in 25 minutes to drive me up to Columbia to get the frame and fixators pulled out of my leg. #
06:20 They're almost here, so time to go. Further updates from the road. #
06:38 On the road. Sort of. Stuck behind a train. #
07:21 Watching Detective Conan episodes on my iPod Touch. Handy little thing. Sun coming up, getting in my eyes. #
08:40 Bought some stuff at the Wal-Mart in Camdenten. Waiting for the folks to finish returning a clock to someone. #
09:53 Moved up to the front seat in Jeff City. Not far to Columbia. #
10:15 Arriving in Columbia. #
10:31 At hospital registration, hurrying up and waiting. #
10:43 twitpic.com/p8ne1 - Construction at MU in #comu #
10:47 Checking in for surgery. After this I'll go back and undress and they'll start an IV on me. #
10:59 Still waiting in the waiting room. Listening to CNN. #
11:08 Geez, I'm sleepy already and I haven't even been called yet. Well, I'm about to get a whole lot of sleep very soon now. #
11:55 Still sitting in the waiting room, waiting. #
12:04 After an hour of waiting I have hopes they'll call for me soon. #
12:09 They may be forlorn hopes though. #
12:16 Did get to watch a Conan OAV while waiting though. #
12:19 I've been told they're running about 90 minutes behind today. Which means it should only be ten more minutes or so. We hope. #
12:47 Watched another Detective Conan. Still waiting, and starving. #
12:51 I'm told it should be REAL SOON NOW. #
13:00 Two hours and counting. #
13:15 I'm told I'm going to be called next. But they haven't told me how "next" I'll be. #
13:22 Called at last! Changing now. #
13:32 twitpic.com/p98fq - A last look at the thing on my leg. #
13:34 Getting blood pressure and stuff done. #
13:45 Signed the consent form. Now waiting on them to start an IV and move me to the operating room. #
13:57 IV in. Dehydrated as I am, it was "fun". #
13:58 Signing off for surgery now. Later! #
15:55 twitpic.com/p9srd - Leg: the aftermath #
16:20 Enjoyed a cabbage bun and orange juice, and took two Percocets. Will eat more at Jeff City. #
17:02 We hit an Imo's in Jeff City and Dad got me a small deluxe pizza. Mmm, I love Imo's. Some people don't, but I do. #
17:34 It's amazing how convenient the Touch is for watching videos. #
19:25 Almost home. Really drowsy. Guess that's the Percocets. Think I'm going to head to bed as soon as I'm there. #
19:53 Home at last. Pretty worn out. Crashing hard, soon. #
20:10 It sure is nice to be able to take shorts off without having to work them over something big and metal. #
