I got no more—what is this?

And tonight I spent nine hours in the ER. It turns out I was not as much better last week as the doctors thought.

I need to find something else to do on weekends.

Oh dear. Nine hours in the ER sounds like a horrific mix of terrible worry and (based on my few experiences, where you spend a lot of time waiting for someone to tell you just how worried you should be) terrible boredom. I hope you find something with either more soothing boredom or more nurturing excitement.

Thank God, I had brought a book and my mother had brought a book and rushthatspeaks had brought multiple books and so I did not go totally out of my mind, but there was way too much waiting with no information and nothing else to do. It was as bad as an airport.

I hope you find something with either more soothing boredom or more nurturing excitement.

Thank you!

In my experience worse than airports, at least in airports you can go find things to amuse yourself/get away from screaming kids....

Also, eeek! Hoping for sensible doctors and a quick resolution.

That sentence initially ended "almost as bad as an airport. At least at airports they don't prod you" and then I remembered, no, never mind, now they do.

Thank you. Sensible doctors is an important factor here.

Yes, the waiting is always hard. Glad you had books and company, and best wishes for an uneventful weekend in this regard.

Thank you. I was really hoping to see Buster Keaton on Sunday and have no idea of the odds right now. I am tired of my weekends being messed with like this.

I read two new books and re-read part of a third. It really could have been much worse.
