Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: SINSULL Date: 19 Jan 10 - 12:59 PM That's not Michelle. It's Jacqui. That Chardonnay catheter is flowing a bit fast. Wasn't that box full an hour ago???? Memories of the Getaway: She's not breathing...I think she's dead....GOOD! She's moving and breathing. Probably needs the rest after all the drama last week. Close the door and leave her with the teddies. SPAW! Get away from that door. I said with the teddies not in one. Dirty old man... Michele bypassed the Recovery Ward and went straight home. Ingrate! All that painting and decorating and what happens? A drunken Jacqui flops on the bed. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: GUEST,WYS-out Date: 19 Jan 10 - 11:46 AM How's everyone doing back here this morning? Here, the licking of wounds is almost done-- and just in time to fly again, too. (I'm planning on taking my head with me, because I can re-attach it without Ratched, and I will not need to tuck it underneath my arm, LOL. ~Susan |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: Stilly River Sage Date: 19 Jan 10 - 11:41 AM I put in one last appearance in the holiday tavern, but I'm glad the hall coat closet is still connected back to the recovery ward. (Did you know they have booths in the tavern now?) How's everyone doing back here this morning? Someone ought to stick their head into the tavern kitchen in a few minutes and get some dibs on those muffins I smelled. I think they're blueberry. Oh, Look, Michelle is here, buried under all of those bears. I bet she's getting a little hot. . . |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: gnu Date: 18 Jan 10 - 03:30 PM Severn... "Or sing Eileen MacAroon" I know a cookie there, Eileeeen MacArooooon. Fired in that oven ware. Fired with tender care. Flour and coconut, Eileeeen MacArooooon. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: Stilly River Sage Date: 18 Jan 10 - 01:47 PM There seems to be a rather large stack of stuffed animals that accumulated on the bed in Michelle's room overnight. You'll have to look hard to find her in with the critters. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Montgomery Ward 2010 From: Severn Date: 18 Jan 10 - 12:29 PM The gang at the tavern just sent us a load of special commemorative Wotsomatta U. jello cubes colored Pomagranate and Puce. I know the Tidy Bowl game was played a while ago and I lost some money when dear old W.U. went down the tubes. I'm not sure where it's been or if it's any fresher than the green stuff they feed me daily in here, but I get the special sugar-free stuff, so bon appetit to the rest of you! I'd heard rumors it was originally destined to be funneled through Scotland for relief via the "Haggis For Haiti" group, but they must have sent it to "our own private Hades" by mistake. If it smells a bit squiddy, I wouldn't mess with it....... I'm feeling morphined-ish than ever after breakfast, so they must be planning to torture me extra hard today. So I guess that means that I don't get to get out to the annual Martin Luther King Jr. Birthday white sales to get a good deal on some king sized sheets. I'll put the radio on the local Pacifica station WPFW, though, as they always have some good documentary programming about the man. Last year ar this time, I'd have been listening to it while working overtime at the Post Office where some friends put me on to it some years ago, but I'm free at last from that part of it! Happy American Holiday, world! |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: Severn Date: 17 Jan 10 - 01:33 AM SINSULL, Would you even dance the Macaroona for us for one? Or sing Eileen MacAroon? Would you commit mass murder for several Macareen? What would happen if you put quicklime in de coconut? |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: SINSULL Date: 16 Jan 10 - 07:04 PM Do they serve Pina Coladas here or can I order in from the Tavern? I would kill for a macaroon. You put the lime in the coconut And drink down Call the doctor and he You put the lime in the coconut And drank it down????? |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: Donuel Date: 16 Jan 10 - 03:26 PM I have a Squidward plush toy that sounds perfect for Tom I have recovered the ability to walk pain free after 20 months. Now its hard to see where I am walking since both my eyes have detached and a veil like rain on the windshield makes it hard to see against light backgrounds like this reply to thread box. Finally I can no longer trust my eyes. Now If I see something unsual I can dismiss it with impunity. Like Don RUmsfeld would say "you don;t get the trade off you want , you get the trade off you have." |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: SINSULL Date: 16 Jan 10 - 01:27 PM She put the lime in the coconut and drank it down... Great! Now I need a padded room and earphones to drive the worm out. Thanks a lot. Pure white room for me. Make sure there's a dog bed for Seamus preferably a green plaid. Put the F$#@**%^in lime in the %^@)*&%*&^#*( coconut and choke to death on it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: Morticia Date: 16 Jan 10 - 11:15 AM I certainly have the qualifying incision but I think I am sufficiently recovered to dispense coffee and crabbiness in equal proportions....only I can't hold a heavy cup with my left arm for any length of time so you'll have to catch. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: VirginiaTam Date: 16 Jan 10 - 07:15 AM It seems to me that the inmates... err patients will need some art therapy. Also they will need to learn to breath deeply after surgery to help keep lungs clear and strong. So I deliver with all my good intentions for the inmates... err patients several packs of Blow paint pens WARNING: This toy is not suitable for responsible adults Someone will need to supervise the inmates... err patients, to prevent unapproved (by Sinsull) redecorating of the ward and its inmates... err patients. |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: Bat Goddess Date: 16 Jan 10 - 06:51 AM What Beanie labeled as "squid" is definitely an octopus and a few tentacles shy, among other things. I have a Beanie-sized plush squid I acquired at the Monterey Bay Aquarium about 10 years ago -- they make a nice pair. What REALLY aren't anatomically correct are rubber bait squid -- but a bunch of 'em make a cool flapper dress (all those fringes!). Linn |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: Severn Date: 16 Jan 10 - 03:27 AM If you see Severn leaning against or hanging off doors, doorframes, beds, tables or flailing his arms and doing seemingly weird stuff,with a TENS machine and electrodes attatched to him, he's supposed to be doing all that stuff. Door mounted pulleys, huge rubber bands, his corkscrew walking stick, barbells and towels are other props that figure in. Everything seems to be a potential prop for strengthening excercises and stretches. It's working slowly, but it's working, and he's left to his own devices a lot of the time, so he can't afford to get lazy. Don't let him. It's gonna take a helluva long time, but he'll get through it. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: Liz the Squeak Date: 15 Jan 10 - 10:06 PM Just a strong stomach and a hob-nailed liver! Here's healing thoughts going out to all those folks who needs 'em... LTS |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: Stilly River Sage Date: 15 Jan 10 - 09:56 PM Anatomical correctness is rarely required at Mudcat. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: Jeri Date: 15 Jan 10 - 09:47 PM I have a Beanie squid that turns 10 on Jan 25th. Of course he's not anatomically correct, but he's cute anyway. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: Bat Goddess Date: 15 Jan 10 - 09:39 PM One of the post-Christmas marked down toys at Sears just across the way from Sears Optical is a really cute and tasteful baby pterodactyl -- when you touch its tongue it flaps its baby wings and squawks. I think it's the last one -- but if it's still there on Sunday I'm going to have to buy it. To add to the decor...especially if there are no plump plush squid. It's not pink, but right now I think it's cuter than most flamingoes. Wonder if I should take Tom's concertina to the hospital tomorrow? Linn |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: Severn Date: 15 Jan 10 - 06:35 PM Who amongst us shall bear the blame and who shall blame the bear? If it wasn't bears causing the trouble bruin and the blessed mess, could it have been The Pope? And there WERE woods (but not Tiger) and a few irons and a putter in the room a while ago, but they're gone now. And that might explain the prescence of the nuns. Maybe the Pope's across the road at the public links. Except, if it WAS the Pope, he would have healed her, right? Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm............ 'Tis a puzzlement...... Whatever, don't step in a "Kodiak Moment",,,,, |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: VirginiaTam Date: 15 Jan 10 - 05:10 PM You put the lime in the coconut Damn... I posted my recovery ward ideas to the wrong thread. Can't be bothered to copy and paste them from the LilyFestre thread. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: AllisonA(Animaterra) Date: 15 Jan 10 - 05:04 PM All right, all right, here is the candy striper with the shovel- gimme a break, already, with bears in one room and flamingos (ugh- have you ever smelled them???) in another- and, oh, no, please- are those NUNS??? That's it- mix me a peppermint patty, and stat! |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: SINSULL Date: 15 Jan 10 - 04:49 PM So what are the steaming brown foul smelling piles on the floor in there. And why is that cuddly 8' bear tearing my new sheets apart. He may be your relative but he is still sh******ng all over the place. This is a hospital you know. Where's Liz with the booze? I need a drink. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: ClaireBear Date: 15 Jan 10 - 04:37 PM SINS, I said it in the other thread and I'll say it here too: If you ain't got no woods in that room, you ain't got no bear XXXX. Honestly, some people! |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: SINSULL Date: 15 Jan 10 - 04:13 PM Definitely not the red room, SEv. How about a nice cooling ultramarine blue? The sheets are especially softened for sensitive skin. Songs of the whales for music. And a huge aloe plant. Meantime, somebody check Michelle's room. Silly River Sage filled it with brown bears - real ones. I draw the line at shovelling bear XXXX.Who would believe a falling squid could cause so much grief. Anybody see Nurse Ratched? She can handle the bears. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: Severn Date: 15 Jan 10 - 03:37 PM Severn comes back slightly morphined up from his PT torture stretches wondering what kind of sheets will be on HIS bed and why they put nurse InterVenus DiMilo, of all people, in charge of strengthening and stretching arms and shoulders. They must've been shorthanded.... Still, if she had arms, I'd grab one, pull and make a wish or two. (Sigh!). That reminds me, where are these Candy Strippers I overheard someone talking about? I know that, in my ward, every night is Burns Night, but could I have a break from the Scottish music? A little bit of constant "Neil Gow fiddles while Robert Burns" goes a long way. What's this? "A Choking Farewell"? Jay Ungar fiddles while Ken Burns will do for a while... And please swap the constant reruns of "77 Sunset Strip" and Edd "Kookie" Byrnes for a little George & Gracie fer crissake! That way, Robert still burns, if only between George's finger and thumb. Being "The New Crispy Minstrel" is getting a little old by now, but life still hurts and progress goes slowly, but it goes..... |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: SINSULL Date: 15 Jan 10 - 02:56 PM And then there was the beatnik who painted his entire apartment white, furnished it with white furniture and drew a pencil thin blue line on the wall around the entire place. As his friends came in he was heard to say Welcome to my sanitary pad. |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: catspaw49 Date: 15 Jan 10 - 02:44 PM You can carry this stuff overboard if you're not careful. Like when I was in my "cool-beat" period where I did everything in black. I blacked out the windows and painted my room sompletely black. First thing happened was I lost my bowling ball........ Spaw |

Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: Amos Date: 15 Jan 10 - 02:22 PM Can I check in in order to recover from the Mudcat? I think a course of amphetamine IV would probably wake me up all right. And a video game where I can blow up Fox News anchorpeople and the guys who run tech support for Epson. A |
Subject: RE: BS: Mudcat Recovery Ward 2010 From: ClaireBear Date: 15 Jan 10 - 02:14 PM If you want to make Linn happy, just throw in any number of rubber squid. She'll never notice the absence of flamingoes then. (Hmmmm, great venereal term that: "an absence of flamingoes") Kendall's room needs black leather, or is he planning on wearing the black kidskin hospital gown again? And for Michelle -- well, I haven't met her, but I'm thinking one of those Mexican pottery sun figurines like this one might be a nice addition. Or this one, which is a more feminine aspect of the sun than one usually sees. Hope she likes it. |
