dreams do come true

i remember years ago, my brother had an asthma attack and was hospitalized for three days. i was so jealous because people were doting on him right and left.  ever since then, i have wanted some excuse (not a major one) to visit the hospital. it's really twisted, i know---he just made it seem like a cozy, spoiled, dream. 

 around the beginning of july, i noticed these weird bumps on my shin and although they were nothing serious, today i got them removed.  the hospital is not all it's cracked up to be, i'll tell ya that much.  but, i did brave an IV, a feat i am very proud of and i can also attest to the fact that the gowns are just as awkward as they say.
