How Vicodin can make the world a better place

So today was one of those days...
the AC went out officially, on
the hottest day of the year so far....it's ok, though, because the
not-so-nice (read cast-iron-bitch) at the heating/cooling place said
she would send someone next Thursday. Like we all won't be dead by next
Thursday. When she asked what was wrong, I said it sounded like Marine
One was landing on the roof. She said, "So it's still working but it
has a noise?" OK, dumb ass.
I cracked the screen of my laptop--again...
I
missed my cooking class because of a run to the hospital emergency
room. Derek's weight bar has seen more action today than it has in
years...when it landed on his big toe, crushing it and making it bleed
like a stuck pig. It's OK though, because the ER staff thought they
were the Alexandria, VA version of Scrubs. One doctor/nurse was funnier
than the next. I had to laugh when the doctor told me to screw off when
I said that D's pain couldn't match childbirth.
E peeded on me
in the ER--twice. When Derek asked if I wanted to take him out to the
car to change him, I said, "Why? He managed to keep his diaper clean by
peeing out the crack."
Four hours later...
But there is a
silver lining to this cloud. The doctor took me up on my suggestion
that Derek get a tetanus shot and I convinced Derek to give me half of
his bottle of Vicodin for my trouble. OK, I actually held up the script
in front of his face and refused to get it filled at CVS until he
promised to send half the bottle over to my side of the bridge. I think
it'll all be alright.
