Boredom

The boredom is excruciating. If the clock on the wall ticked I would have smashed it by now. As it's quiet it escapes my wrath. There's only so much Bargain Hunt and Deal Or No Deal I can stomach. Kindle for iPod is lovely but text too small for extended reading sessions. Nothing happens as you watch a small cog of the NHS trundle past your door. Shitting the bed helps kill some time but it's not the best pastime. Still nothing happens and the minutes seem like hours, the hours like days. I go for a little drive around the ward in my wheelchair and a half hour passes but it felt like an hour! Still nothing happens. Maybe it's time for a sleep that'll pass an hour or two. Get comfy and settled just nodding off and in comes the nurse to do your obs. Awake! Nothing happens. Never mind soon be bedtime.

  1. As soon as you are home there will be no escape...and you'll be counting down the hours until little people's bedtime just so that you have enough peace and quiet for crap TV. Remember bargain hunt has got to be better than Cbeebies!!!
