Finally home, got in last night.  Got released from the hospital a few days ago though, but stayed at my parents’ place, since you have to be under observation for a period afterwards.  What an ordeal.

Stone’s been removed, no complications or anything, so it’s just recovery time now.  Thanks to everyone who sent supportive emails, evemails, chocolates, and other items. :)  I expect I’ll be back to my regular routine in the next couple of weeks, providing recovery moves forward at a decent pace.

That includes getting back to EVE and comic making (yay!).  I’ve been missing that a lot.

Oh and if anyone’s curious, I managed to satisfy my gaming itch while in the hospital, with my PSP and Wipeout Pure.  Love that series, and that game still continues to be amazing.

Well, there’s just one more day to go, and I’ll be (finally) going under the knife to get this accursed kidney stone out. After what I hope will be a short post-op recovery period, I’ll be happy to return to work, driving, EVE, and well… life.

I still can’t believe it’ll be two months since this stupid thing’s symptoms got acute, and only now do I get to have it dealt with. It’s a complete waste of my productive time, and it’s been the polar opposite of anything resembling time off. Not fun, not recommended by me to anyone at all. And I can’t wait to get back to doing comics again.
So this is me signing off for a few days. See you all on the other side of the gate.

No I haven’t quit doing WDA and ENV, no I haven’t quit playing EVE, and no I’m not dead. What I am is basically bed- and sofa-ridden thanks to a big kidney stone sitting inside my kidney. It’s not going anywhere, and will have to be surgically removed. The symptoms got nasty on the 22nd of December, so you can imagine this hasn’t exactly been a fun time for me. Fear not, though. I’m still around, set some looooong skills training in EVE, and hope to be back to the land of the living soon.
