ROCH'S TOP SURGERY ESSENTIALS:

bathrobe/housecoat/kimono/whatever. you need A Robe. trust me

dry shampoo and wipes. youre gonna feel sooooo gross by day 3.

box of your favorite snacks from nuts.com or somesuch for easy access

a nice fancy instant ramen for easy meals. not maruchan. mild Jin Ramen was my soup of choice and i went through a lot of it. get some chopped veg and presliced meat to zhuzh it up

roll of vet tape (for making a Drain Holster for the shower)

adhesive removal wipes (VERY IMPORTANT you cannot BELIEVE how raw youre gonna feel after peeling off twenty thousand of those fuckin tegaderms. trust me)

peri bottle (good when you dont have a lot of flexibility yet.)

one of those back pillows with the arms that you can prop yourself up on. good for my fellow side sleepers

a gatorade and an egg drop wonton soup right after the surgery. manna from heaven. gatorade in general is a good thing to have, but also drink a ton of water

the day right after surgery is the worst. take those painkillers the SECOND you wake up and then crawl back into bed.

optional but youre gonna want to try getting out of bed with JUST your core muscles, no arms involved. do some crunches if you want. getting up from a dumbbell chest press is good practice

steel yourself for the drains. its gross. i know its gross. there might be a chunk, its fine. just remember, its yours. you made that. it'd be worse if it was someone ELSE'S drain juice and/or weird chunk. you remember this fact and youll be fine.

Anis are bizarre, coal-black cuckoos with long floppy tails and unique, curiously tall, flattened bills. Groove-billed occurs in a variety of open and semi-open habitats in tropical lowlands and foothills, typically staying low in shrubs and grasses. Gregarious and not particularly graceful; usually seen crashing around awkwardly in small groups.

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH!!! this year i decided to redraw my very first mothpool art from all the way back in 2014 :)
