piploverI have my CT scan in a few hours, so I'm drinking the stuff that's supposed to let them see my insides better. OMG, it tastes foul. I chose the berry, because the only other option was mocha, and just the taste of coffee makes me feel sick sometimes. I don't know if would have made any difference, though. At first you're like, Hmmm, not so bad. Then you really taste it and it's like, OMG, I want to squeegee my tongue!! And the horrible thing is I have to keep drinking the stuff. You drink a half of the two bottles every hour, and then the last bit a half hour before you go. Ick!! I tried holding my nose, but that really didn't help, and I can't eat or drink anything until after the scan.
Ugh.
On the plus side? I have Avengers!!

Date: 2012-09-26 05:23 pm (UTC)The King looked down at the young unconscious guardsman, and then at the small figure standing beside him, wearing a woeful expression.
"I'm sorry, sire," Pippin said ruefully. "He gave me no choice."
There were several voices from the rest of the onlookers, all raised in support of Pippin's statement.
Aragorn shook his head. "What happened?"
"We were sparring, but he grew angry when I started getting the better of him." Pippin looked up with an expression of hurt. "He was really trying to injure me…or well…he was serious."
"He might have killed Sir Peregrin!" said one of the other guardsmen, and there were murmurs of assent.
"How did you best him, then, Pippin?" the King asked.
"When I realised he was truly angry, I ducked beneath his legs and tripped him from behind. Then I used the hilt of my sword to knock him out. I had to hit him pretty hard since he had a helm on. I hope he isn't injured too badly."
There was a pitiful moan from the prone figure. "I do not think that he is, Pippin. However, he may be wishing you had killed him by the time I get through with him."

Date: 2012-09-28 03:17 pm (UTC)Thanks! I'm thankful the scan was done and over with in about 10 minutes. I'm torn between hoping for a perfectly normal scan and that they will find something to explain why the pain keeps coming back.
