My Perspective Changed From a Hospital Bed:

Wake up call.
Sounds like you hear it.
If you start this manic pace again, stop and look at your family.
They would miss you.

If you just like sipping a lot of coffee, maybe switch to decaf after the first couple of regular cups?

We dont need any premature entries in the Fallen Stars room.

I wasn't felling well Tuesday. We had recorded very late and I was driving home about 2pm. I decided to go to the hospital and its a good thing I did.

By 4pm I had started pissing blood and passing clots and then my urine flow stopped altogether around 5pm. The morphine was for the pain and panic that set in.

Having to pee and not being able to really freaked me out.

That's some crazy feces, man... :shock:

But, if you were smart enough to get yourself to the hospital... then you're smart enough to know what you need to do. Or, uhm, not to do... :victoire:
 
Today is a good day, albeit a rainy one. Showered, ate for the first time since Tuesday at lunchtime, sitting up by myself...even playing guitar.

I knew something was wrong Tuesday morning. I just assumed it was the 12 hour session, but I've done a lot of those and never had trouble urinating.

Ya, I'm not in a hurry to get there!
 
Ok, so the studio has one of those big, industrial coffee pots. We (everyone) typically drink 10-15 of those little, white Styrofoam cups a day pure black....and sometimes more. Doing this, and not drinking water, caused dehydration and caused the urine to go septic, creating a very rapid onset UTI.

Sorry Robert - didn't pick up on this thread earlier. Be well. But UTIs are strange things - they can cause hallucination and all sorts of brain issues. Is that all OK for you?

Hey, Don! I've really been out of it but no hallucinations. The blood cultures suggest the infection has not spread to the blood, for which I am grateful.

I have trouble urinating when taking viagra; the upward trajectory does not make for hitting the bowl easily.
I guess thats more of an aiming thing then.....

I've been campaigning for years to put a urinal in the house. The wife does not like the idea. But I think I am whittling her down and I have faith that one day I shall pee at home like a man.

Yes, it requires extraordinary skills. Much like shooting a basketball from 25' for that 3-pointer... :cautious:

Have you tried a handstand?

Sorry for the derail, but here we go......
No handstand but I have tried using a plastic cup as a backboard, ie pee into the inverted cup above the toilet.
potty talk I know, but these are serious, urgent issues, in the moment at least.

Most times I can get things under control and proceed as normal by mimic of one of my heroes:

[Austin tries to resist to Fembots] Baseball, cold showers, baseball, cold showers. [One of the fembots stands over him and opens her legs] Margaret Thatcher naked on a cold day! Margaret Thatcher naked on a cold day!

Urinals are practical, but damn, the splashback! Peeing standing up is best outside (with the wind blowing in the right direction...) with nothing in the way. This is my kind of urinal, by the way:
