Minor ops

[louiselux]

I had a sebaceous cyst removed from my head this morning, so that was exciting. The doctor called me a 'good girl' twice, and said I was very brave. I wanted to point out I was 38 and not 12, but actually it was kind of comforting.

He numbed my head and then there was a lot of pressure and muttering about needing the non-toothed scissors, which the nurse did not possess. Then more muttering and more pressure, and then he said "Haha! I got it all." Then the weird dragging dead feeling of having numb skin stitched. That was the worst thing.

Now I have vast dressing stuck to the side of my head, and a new bald patch.

After that, Mr Lux walked me home in case I had a funny turn, and left me on the sofa watching the Olympics.

Commentator quote of the day, from the men's high bar finals: "That man deserves a biscuit!"

I'm thiknking Scoobie Snacks, myself, but Mr Announcer might not necessarily have been of the Mystery Machine Generation...?

Hope your hed recovers (the outside, at least?)! How many days do you think you'll be able to get away with putting "Oooh, I feel dizzy!" before every request before everyone notices and stops scrambling to help? ;)

I think the scrambling to help's worn off already, although Mr Lux is being adorable as ever, helping me afix the dressings and he's going to help me wash my hair later.

Hope you're feeling chipper too. *tender hugs*
