THE BEER, DRUGS AND PIZZA DIET II
And another beer / wine and pizza night passes by.
We had around ten or a dozen people involved in this one, including my mate Brenton who happened to be visiting at the time.
I must say if you were to lift a dozen people out of a pub on a Friday night and teleport them to the Epworth rehab centre, provide them with some wheelchairs, crutches, external metal fixations, etc. you'd have our little One Flew Over A Cuckoo's Nest evening.
Plenty of bullshit, jokes and funny stories, exchanges of injury details, bitching about the crap staff ( of which thankfully there are very few ), bitching about the crap food ( of which unfortunately there is a fair bit of ), the odd acquired brain injury patient throwing in his or her ten cents worth ( ever seen two brain damaged people flirting with each other? it's quite outrageous, no inhibitions at all ), liberal splashings of wine and beer, interruptions by nurses to administer injections and dangerous drugs ( nothing like downing your favourite opiate painkiller and washing it down with a nice Cab Shiraz Merlot ).
All good fun, eh. :)
P.S. Oh, and happy anniversary to me!
5 months today since having received a right old slappin' by that semi.
It was my cellmate's 5 month a week ago.
I do believe we are officially the longest serving in here at the moment.
I have it on good authority that the longest anyone has been here in one continuous stint is 14 months, so we're not breaking any records just yet.
