Where’s Ethan?

Hello, people of Earth who read my blog.

So you’re going to ask, where the hell has Ethan been, and why hasn’t he blogged lately? Well, there are two reasons for this.

One, I was on jury duty. The case ended in a conviction, but I was in there for a couple days. Yup, I sat on a jury. If you every have the opportunity to do this, DO IT. It is fun. You end up catching up on your reading and listening to your iPod a lot while the court takes recesses. I think we spent 2 hours in the courtroom and the rest of the time being escorted in and out by bailiffs. In the end the drug dealer was convicted so justice was served.

Two, I was in the hospital. The other day I had a pain in my gutty works and it got worse over time. My doctor thought it might be appendicitis, so instead of chancing it, I went to the emergency room where they gave me pain killers. Here is me on pain killers.

It wasn’t a bad experience, but it took a loooong time to get through and it left me dead tired for an entire day. Turns out it wasn’t appendicitis at all, but a very painful pulled muscle. If you get one of these, I’m sorry, because they really, really hurt. And hospital food ain’t grand.

Funny story though, as I was leaving the nurse told me that she wished I could have stayed. “All my patients are so old, it’s like a retirement home.” I told her that for her sake I wished I was staying, but for my own I was glad to be getting out.

Next week is another week though, and hopefully I’ll have a scanner soon so I can scan photos of the awesome Christian Archie comics I just got sent to me from Australia. That’s right, all of the Archie characters are Christians. And they all witness for Christ. It’s mind-blowing.

Until next time, hopefully I don’t get sick or have crime happen!
