Surgery went well, and recovery

Surgery went well, and recovery is coming along. I thought that my head was clear, in spite of the painkillers, until I tried to read an article on philosophy that a friend sent me. Wow. I haven't read that slowly since I was a wee lad. I am taking that as a sign that I should probably not try to write anything too complex. Hopefully I will be clearer tomorrow. I have some stuff to write about pain and drugs as well as the cultural issues that I have been working on, but I will probably forget all about the insights on pain and drugs, as they happened under the influence of both, so when I am more normal they will probably vanish.

The bad news of the surgery is that I forgot to bring a video tape, so I will not be able to see the film of my insides. Darn. Stuff like that facinates me. Oh well. Melanie says I can probably find something like that available on DVD. True, but it won't be MY insides. Hmmm. See one intestine, you've seen them all?

Back to sleep....
