It's not interesting. I had a routine surgery (gallbladder removal) and after a week, I went to sit up and something that felt like a spring popped inside me. Within a half hour, I literally couldn't move on my own. I was awake, I could talk, but I wouldn't have been able to reach for the phone. I was alone too, but my sister was on the way coincidentally. She called an ambulance and off I went for emergency surgery. One of the clamps had popped and bile (?) was spilling into my insides. I'd also developed an infection inside my body, around my belly button. I was in the hospital for a month to recover from that. Most of my joking comes from the way I acted on the pain medication, with the hallucinations and all. Once in a while my sister will say that she was really scared at the time, and I know I've gone too far.
