Yeah. I did. Really

Last Saaturday, La, Chabdrika and I watched Prince Caspian, and then went off to MC to watch The Incredible Hulk. Maybe I shouldn't have had multiple beers on an empty stomach, but I felt sober enough.

The next thing I remember was waking up in Kalubowila hospital with my body in bandages. That was Saturday afternoon, when I'd got hit on my way to one of the fish joints beside Savoy theater for dinner.

Sunday morning Kanchana, Bud, Lahiru, Kuncha, Dassa, Seejay and Chanux, and The Mad Monk, all showed up to see me. Which was nice. And then my parents came too, which was better. It was when they left me for the day that things became a lot worse. It was then that they moved me to ward 27, where all the post-op cases were. And I was stuck sitting on a plastic chair for the day.

It was then that I called my parents and asked them to take me home. Lets face it, hospital's no fun if you can't sleep at least nominally in a bed

It didn't help that a cop was coming to take a statement from me about the guy who hit me. I can't remember much, other than I shared a beer or two with my friends while watching Hulk. Is is just me or is it unfair to charge someone knowing that you weren't 100% at fault? I dunno.

I can't write more now. Body hurts and all. But please. feel free to leave a message
