Wed 3/9

...so i visited the ron-man today. well, for someone who just had a third of his lung removed less than 24 hrs. ago, he looked and seemed damn good. voice a little hoarse but strong. sleep-deprived from, what i would guess, a great deal of poking and prodding, he was lucid. and though there's been a bit of a learning curve on his pain management (after all, as ron himself would put it: "pain is just another way of feeling"), his sense of humor remained fully intact...

...inquired around the ICU if they had a 'soft stinky cheese' IV at the ready for him, but to no avail...

...also, and of particular note: post-op, in ICU, drugged, only 66% lunged, unrested, being constantly pressured/reminded to find the light of Scientology, ron-man is still beating everybody else in his nba fantasy league (i'm sure this doesn't rankle jake at all, ahem)...

...feel better, ron-dog...
