Tired.

First of all, codeine is not what it is cracked up to be. Makes me sick, woozy merely dulls the pain. Doesn't actually get rid of the pain, doesn't give me neat hallucinations - doesn't give me any, for that matter - and doesn't let me sleep well.

Jello and pudding are beginning to pale. I will be happy when this is all over. And I'll have steak for supper, followed by a really crisp apple for dessert. Because that day will come, sooner or later.
