Today? THE day? Damn time flies.
Take photos, and save some of the "gunk" for us!

OMG I can't think straight and my stomach is in knots!
Thank god I wore nice underwear today because when they do the autopsy at least they will say "she wears nice underwear."
If I don't come back, it's been great knowing you all. Carry on with the fun, dick-waving, and jonging, and please don't forget me...

Errrr, but T, if you don't come back that'll kind of screw up the big Sky trip....so good luck, don't forget the pics! :D
That's true...nevermind I'll be back!
:)
I wonder how he will react when I say "Can I take pictures?" Maybe I should video me asking him...
Sprite
ARRRGGGGHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It's still there. :(
He wants me to go to the hos-pi-tal to get it taken out. I asked if I could just sanitize an exacto knife w/ a match tonite and do it myself but he was not getting my sense of humor there...
So I have to wait for the scheduling phone call and stew in the anticipation of having this guy, who's mildly annoyed w/ me, slice me open next week.
Big bonus though: I got THIRTY vicodins for post-op use. Woo-hoo! Partay time!
Sprite
Wha? Hospital... pfft, bet he just gets a butt load more money for procedures there? How deep under the skin does it appear to be... I've always just used a sharp needle(like), sterilized it then just picked at the flesh on the shallow end until you can tweezer it out. :eek:
Edit, something like this could work too?

lol...
You have NO idea how much I'm chompin' at the bit to do some self-surgery here. I have needle sharp tweezers and just now began picking a little until some voice of reason forced me to stop (why can't it just stfu?)
Want...it...out..now!!!!
I better have my cel-mate lock up all sharp objects until I get this surgery. And my kid to do the same for me at home!
:::twitch:::
Sprite
Vicodin for all @ the Magic mini.!!!!
Now we just need some to bring the Robitussin. This is going to be one sweet party.

There has to be something in there to make this easy.
dig it out
We all know you'll wait... Hey, is that Doc cute? Maybe he just wants to see you again? Would explain the nearly sheer panties too! :fm: Anyway, back on topic. I've found if you make lots of little pics/cuts/tears at the skin, each one not really much more than the last... it makes it easier. There is a certain point where it changes from a "snag" to a "yikes" though... must be something to do with depth of nerves???Quote:

"THAT'S a splinta"
[/crocodile dundee]
kick that alien body's ass, Sprite!
Holy fucking sliver! It's out...but they had to knock me unconscious and all (that was great) so I could not take pix for you bitches.
The thing was hudge...he said it was a very broad wooden splinter with all kinds of gross gelatinous bodily secretions that had formed all around it. He asked "what were you doing?" I told him...making a ski chair! He said "Oh yeah, of course--I get a lot of that here!" Luv the smart ass docs. ;)
So anyway I even got a few stitches and all. That medication was GREAT! Man, I didn't feel a thing. I'm talking to the anesthesia guy, who was a hoot...and then next thing you know Im like "Are they going to do this or what?" And the nurse says "it's done!" They knocked me out that deeply and instantly. Devine!
Of course my lovely cousin is taking all kinds of care of me so she picks me up and drops me at her place to rest and even feeds me. Then she went back to work. I went to get up to do something because I'm not the type who can sit still for long (I should be sleeping really, I just took a vicodin but I"m not even tired). So I kind of lose my balance and put my hand down and "OWCH!!!" Ugh, I lift the bandage and I tore the stitches a little. I'm such a calamity.
It will be fine though. I just tightened the bandage. It's weird not seeing the alien body there anymore. I was growing attached to it. I even had a pet name for it..."Fucking Splinter." Oh well, everything has its season I guess. And it was time to say goodbye to the lodged alien body.
I asked if I could take it home in a little tube of formaldehyde and they said "No."
Spoil-sports!
Well, back to your regularly scheduled time-wasting and nonsense. I'm skiing tomorrow. Hope I don't rip any more stitches. That shit feels awful...like little needles pulling at your skin. Ewwwww!

Congrats on surviving. My ex had a pretty large splinter in her heel that she got while walking around Italy for a month. It callused over and I got to cut it out, as soon as I made the first cut the thing literally exploded out of her skin. It was awesome.
this thread makes my toes curl. so glad you got it out, spritely. did he let you keep it?
Did they dress you up in one of those backless hospital gowns? Just wondering.
BD4A needs to read more closely.
Glad you're OK, sprite. Is it your "One Bean Salad Tossing" hand? :D:D:D:D
Salad tossing? :eek::eek: Glad to hear you survived sprite!
Was this supposed to be a joke? :nonono2:Quote:
