So I was lying there in hospital with these nurses. These to me 10 year old youngsters on either side. One drawing blood the other stabbing an I.V. into me. I mentioned that "I used to be afraid of needles".
"Not anymore?" one asked.
"No" I mumbled in a semi-conscious haze.
"They've become old friends."
I mean as Richard Pryor said after setting himself on fire while free basing.
"...fuck it I'm alive."
So far so good.
