Argh...

The sick man by Laurits Andersen Ring (Source)
I am under the weather, hope to be operational again this afternoon.

For now?



It was a funny skit, back in the day.

The real thing?

Not so funny...

Update:

Went to the Doc Friday morning, got checked out, got a prescription for antibiotics and sent on my way.


FWIW, I feel much better today than yesterday.

Still and all, the next few days will be light fare, clear liquids, broth, that kind of thing.

However, no alcohol.

Yes, I know vodka is a clear liquid.

One of the antibiotics is clearly labeled NO ALCOHOL.

Damn...

But I'm strong, I can hack it.

I think...

  1. Feel better soon, Sarge!

    This should help, not. Your neck o' the woods though...

  2. It's only funny if you've never had diverticulitis.

    1. The whining is funny. The need to really scope out the menu at any dining establishment is not.

      Sesame seeds and peanuts are my kryptonite. Sometimes it just happens no matter what I eat. Stress might be a factor.

  3. Doctor told me I had it...scary stuff. Turned out to be kidney stones, not sure which is worse, but at least the stones were blasted and gone. Take care and get better.

    1. I've heard tales of folks with kidney stones, no fun, no fun at all.

      Thanks Joe.

      I credit the prayers and thoughts of my friends.

      The antibiotics help too!

      Thanks Rev.

  5. ARGH is right! Glad your update shows you are on the mend. I have a dear friend with Diverticulitis and it is no picnic and as you say, not for sissies. Be smart my friend and take extra good care of yourself.
