Oh Where, Oh Where can Nathan be?

i won't go into great detail, but Thursday Night I went to the E.R. and after only 15, count' em 15 hours, they admitted me to the hospital. Don't get excited, it's something with lots of electrolytes and apparent dehydration and anti-something or other out of whack. I've had all sorts of blood tests, x-rays, amd other "look at your insides tests" whose names I can't remember since I'm a litlle out of it. (Typing this has bee hell, and included massive amounts of backspacing.)

Anyway, I don't expect to be online a whole lot for the next few days, but I expect to make a full recovery, hopefully in the next few days.

Nathan.

Hope you're feeling better soon. Rest. Do what the doctor told you to do. Watch something mindless on TV. And take care of yourself.

Blood tests and x-rays and needles, oh my!

Yes, yes, rest, do what you're told, take care of yourself, get better.

Oh no! Hope you feel better soon - and the anti-whatever it is turns out to be relatively minor, in the scheme of things. Rest - without wet cats.

WAH!

I'd noticed your absence, but if I'd guessed you were sick I wouldn't have sent you that snarky txt!

Get well soon! And drink lots of liquids!

mattw said...

That stinks. Get better soon. Plenty of liquids and all that.

If you hadn't seen I got your hat...OMG...I just figured it out. The hat was your source of power and now that you don't have it any more you are suceptable to human disease. I need to get on a flight to New York quick!

MWT said...

Poor Nathan. :(

Hope you feel better soon.

BOY. Don't make us come to cheer you up in person. You will be embarrassed.

Oh, okay. Which hospital?

(Feel better. Fast. I need you healthy.)

Hope you're hydrated and back to kickin' ass real soon now, Commander. The tactical meetings just aren't the same without you.

On a scale of Wooziness (highest being 10), he's at a 13.

He says send all your UCF magic powers.

Wait, that's me asking for your magic powers.

The only powers we have is me, and I'm quite certain I wouldn't be any help. Armpit noises aren't nearly as therapeutic as you'd think.

Sadly, it's probably due to the LHC that you're sick Nathan. I guess we picked the wrong team. Let's all go stalk someone now -- it might help. :)

It's the new stove, obviously putting out bad waves.

You should put the old one back in and send the behemoth to me. That would make you feel better.

15 hours? Dude, I would have puked on somebody behind the reception desk. I get stabby if I have to wait more than fifteen minutes.

Get better, that's an order. We're rudderless without you, oh beloved leader.

Eric said...

Au contraire, Shawn! I've seen, with my own eyes, you hold a pair of black holes in your bare hands like it was nothing at all!

I hereby nominate Shawn to travel to New York to lay hands on our leper... er... I mean leader! I know he can do it!

In the alternative, I nominate John to bring Nathan food unless he gets better within 24 hours.... :-D

Ilya said...

That's terrible, Nathan! I hope you'll get better soon.

Random Michelle K said...

Anon GF,

Let us know if there's anything you need. We've heard horror stories about what a terrible patient he is. I figure if we can keep you from killing him, that's important too!

MWT said...

I bet a small order of stinky tofu would clear that wooziness right out. I second the motion to send John. :)

I think he prefers the morphine to the tofu.

See what happens when i take a day or two to do stuff.....stuff here happens!
I hope you feel better soon....do what the docs tell you to do!

John the Scientist said...

Damn, I've been offline. On the way with the tofu in the morning.

Mucho, mucho good health vibes out to you, Nathan! Feel better soon!

Tom said...

Nathan, get better soon, or JTS will be there with the stinky tofu! You're probably too weak to resist, so the best thing to do is to get better before he shows up!

Ewwww, stinky tofu!
