My dad has his phone off the hook in his room at the hospital. Maybe he's sleepy from pain meds or something. Then again he's an alcoholic so you'd think they'd be careful about narcotics with him. I just want to hear how he's doing. My sister said she couldn't really follow his thought patterns and might fly out there to help him when he gets discharged.

Otherwise I've had a long day but holding up considering. Gotta do my med box on Monday. Oh joy! My favorite chore! /Sarcasm

I gave $10 to a little boy and his mom who were giving away candy if you donated for needy children. I'm at Panera and I saw others give and they seemed genuine so if they're crooks then I'm out $10 I guess.

My study I'm in is getting old. I have to write down everything I eat and drink special powdered drinks that affect my gut bacteria and then collect stool samples. Only a week left! They are looking at how certain drugs- including zyprexa- affect the gut biome.
