dear diary,

the pain is ALMOST unbearable.

i haven't taken a dump in two days either. that can't be healthy.

i see the doctor this morning and i'm going to beg him to put me down.

if my nipples did fall off, i'd want to be nipless, because how funny would that be? i'd be the life of the party everywhere. i mean, if people still invited me to parties since i'd be known as the nipless freak.

i talked to someone last night and her daughter had the same surgery a month or two ago with the same doctor.

i think her quote was "oh my daughter was out shopping by the third day. she didn't have any pain at all."

and i said "i hate you."

actually i said "did they make her breathe into a little plastic spoo-dad so she didn't catch pneumonia?"

and there was a lot of silence and then she said "uh, noooooooo?" you know how like people will end a phrase or a word with a higher pitched voice like it's a question or something to that effect? right.

so apparently i'm a freak in my recovery. apparently no one has ever had post op boobs so painful that they couldn't stand or sit down and laying down all day feels soooooooo grody.

dude i haven't taken a shower since sunday either. like, i meant to take one on tuesday morning before the surgery, but i totally woke up late. so now i'm uber nasty.

but my hair looks like prince's!
