Tubeless

I just got back from the hospital where they removed my catheter. I was really curious about how they were going to do it - maybe put a knee on my chest and pull, or something exciting like that - but it was pretty uneventful. I got a few injections of Novocain, then when I was sufficiently numb, he made few little cuts in the skin, tugged a few times, and before I even knew what happened, he was stitching me up.

It's still numb now, which feels strange. But the cool thing is, it's bleeding a bit, so it looks kind of like I've been shot :-)

Quick! Release a rap album while your faux bullet wound still gives you street cred!
