AgentBirdnest: Oooohhh... Good idea! *takes a screenshot of that first sentence, so Owl knows I'm not lying* :-)
'Course I'll take care of myself. I wouldn't be a Survivor (2.38) if I didn't. Besides, this thread needs a healthy Agent to do really important things, like... uhh... well, I don't do much, but at least I don't go out of my way to break anything around here :-p
I hear that people get ice cream when they get tonsil surgery. Maybe they will let you snort ice cream instead? :-p
You're very important here! We need you for counter-espionage. Without our resident Agent, foreign spies might infiltrate the thread, and where would we be then?
Whahahaha. I had that exact surgery as a kid. My parents had previously threatened that I might have to stay in the hospital for a night if I didn't drink enough after the surgery, and they had jokingly hinted that I might not get my presents (for being a good little girl) until later in that case. Well, for a 5 year old kid presents are of course serious business. So the first thing I did after waking up (okay, not quite the first thing, first I puked blood all over myself, but the second thing) was drink seven glasses of lemonade in one go, immediately followed by a large scoop of ice cream. All the nurses on duty gathered around my bed in amazement, as in all their years doing those surgeries they had never seen anything quite like that.
But no, I'm afraid the only thing I'll be snorting is salt water, and it's gonna hurt like hell. ;P
