Benny got stoned!!!

Sorry I haven�t updated in a while! I�ve had to deal with lots of stuff lately. Last Wednesday I had to rush Benny to the hospital. I was about to leave for work that morning and he started to complain about a pain in his side. I assume it�s gas and tell him it�s not a big deal and ignore it. Next thing I know the poor guy is curled up in a ball on the bathroom floor. I manage, somehow, to get him to the car and drove to the hospital. We got there at 6:30am. The Valet wasn�t anywhere to be seen so I drop him off and try to find parking. Boy was that hell! I end up parking a block down the road and I had to walk with heels. Of course, that�s the last thing on my mind. My man is in pain, in the hospital, and I�m not there with him!!!

So, I�m running to the hospital, in heels, and find out what room he�s located in. When I go in, I see him huddled in a corner, in one of those silly patient gowns, the ones that open in the back, vomiting into a blue plastic bag. It was a pathetic site. He was in terrible pain and the damn nurse was trying to ask him insurance questions. That�s when I turned into Bitchy Wife and took over the situation. I took care of the paper work quickly and insisted that they give him something for pain. The doctor comes in shortly and suspects it�s a kidney stone. He schedules a few tests and orders for some morphine. �The nurse will be in here shortly with that.� Who knew that shortly meant almost half an hour! After 15 minutes go by with Benny writhing in pain on the hospital bed, I get angry. I draw on my dormant PMS powers and go into total bitch mode. I grab the first nurse I see and drag her into the room. She is not pleased. �Do you see him? He is in extreme pain and has been like this for longer then I find acceptable. You are going to find the person that is giving out the meds and you are going to send them here.� She looked really pissed but my heels made me taller then her, so my hovering had a dramatic effect. Less then a few minutes later the nurse comes with drugs. I�ve already been declared a bitch by half the staff, I�m sure, so I stand in a corner, giving off an aura of bitchdom, making sure no one makes any mistakes. The morphine didn�t work so they inject him with Vicatin and two other drugs. He finally starts to feel less pain, and I start to relax. To the nurse�s surprise, I�m a nice person when I�m not in panic mode�go figure. So Benny does all of the tests and finds out that he has a not to small kidney stone. Yay!!! Fun!!! We leave at 10:30am, I drop him off at home, and I head to work. It�s been over a week and he still hasn�t passed it�poor baby.

The wedding.

The wedding went with out a hitch. We had played the night before, at The Main Stage, so my voice was a little raw. However, I pulled off the Ave Maria, sang the Mass of the Angels, and managed a few harmonies in the communion hymn. No to mention, I had been hitting �the sauce� with the bride and my fellow brides maids before the wedding. Go me! I had recruited an awesome pianist and cantor, so the wedding music was beautiful! Co5 played that night and we rocked the party! I�d give more details, but my memory is a bit off on most of the night. Oh, well, we played and no one died!!!!
