    I just had an emergency surgery.  Before I could even open my eyes (coming out of surgery) I could hear everyone talking and joking.  First thing I said was,

    "Are you talking about WeddingBee?"

    I just thought it was really funny.  They were probably like... "What?"  They said, "No, WillyStreet"  (Our local co-op.)  I just thought it was funny that weddingbee was THAT on my mind.  :)

    Any other funny coming-to tales?

    lol!!  that's too funny - hope you have a fast recovery!!

    when I had a colonoscopy (not fun), apparently I told them I was dreaming and put me back to sleep... then proceeded to talk about how the hospital socks were my favorite color (turqouise)...

    tksjewelry  Thank you so much- I remember I checked in to weddingbee right before the surgery- I think I went to the ER that night- I had been sick for a week and didn't know what was wrong- I called it the "death flu."  Turns out, I was kind of right!  But anyhow, I think you said you hoped I was feeling better that night (1 month ago) so thank you.  I missed a month of my life, but I am doing much better now and am just really tired.

    His Barista  Thanks!  I was kind of embarrassed because it was a little random, but hey they sound similar.

    MissAsB  Thanks, I am doing a lot better.

    Emergency surgery is freaky.  I think it was especially difficult because I wasn't expecting it.

    @cbee: when I had my wisdom teeth taken out and I woke up I had no idea what was going. I tried jumping out of bed as fast as possible and my mom was like sit back down!!! I was extremely confused and kept trying to take the nasty cotton out of my mouth (bad bad idea)

    Hope you get better soon!!

    @cbee: I woke up and the anesthesiologist asked if I could remember his name, and I had to think about it, but then I said "Kevin!" He said I had read his shirt, but I told him I couldn't have, I was blind.

    I meant that I had no contacts in and my eyes were having a lot of trouble focusing what little vision I did have from the medications. But I was swearing up and down that I was blind.

    MsYellowJacket  That is so funny!  I was like a "Chatty Kathy" and before I even had my eyes open.  But when the good stuff wore off I was crying like a baby :/  It was a weird experience.  Hey, by the way, did they make you not eat or drink?  I had a really affected appendix and it was leaking, so I had an appendectomy, but they had to keep me in the hospital for a week!  I was only allowed to swap my mouth, no water even.  It was tough!

    Sorry about the surgery I hope you heal up real fast :) 

    when I started waking up after I got my wisdom teeth removed they got mad at me because I wouldn't stop talking. I don't even know what I was saying really but I remember thinking they didn't start so I didn't see what the big deal was.

    cyndistar3  That is so funny!  I could not stop talking either!  I felt like they were all my best friends and I was chatting it up about groceries.  Someone even told me about an organic rotisserie chicken at Trader Joes for 12.99.  I still remember that.  I was getting grocery tips and debating how I refuse to pay to join the co-op.

    helenberrycrunch  That is so funny!  So you really thought you couldn't see?

    SweetRose2011  Oh my gosh, so you were just totally confused?  That would be awful, good thing your mom was there.

    Ms Hedgehog  Exactly :)

    @cbee: I knew I could see, just poorly. I couldn't communicate that, though, so I kept swearing I was blind.

    @cbee: lol that is hilarious! I asked them if they were going to start soon because I was getting tired lol. They said they were already done and that I needed to keep my mouth shut tight to stop the bleeding. then I said "wow, that was really nice". I can't remember what else I was talking about but I remember them telling me to stop talking haha.

    @cbee: so sorry!  I hope things are looking up now!  Yes - it's a day and a half of fasting and laxatives... not a fun experience!!  Things were happening that I didn't know my body was capable of during the prep...

    when I was little I had my tonsils taken out. I specifically asked if they could put them in a jar for me (I was morbid child), so when I came to still in the O/R I asked where they had put my tonsils, and whined I had wanted them in a jar. LOL

    when I woke up from an upper GI scope, I immediately paniced and said "Where is my baby, where is my baby?!"  Meanwhile, my baby sat in her carrier about two foot away, looking at me the whole time.

    When I came to after my knee surgery back in high school, I woke up to find my parents walking with me and my bed as we were rolled into the recovery room.  I managed to say, "Hi Mama.  Hi Daddy.  I'm okay.  I love you."  Then I passed out again hardcore.

    I was put under for that surgery with laughing gas, and I was CONVINCED as I was going under that the anesthesiologist had been to Minnesota, and I was trying to talk to him about the Mall of America.  I was giggling hysterically, counting backward, and going on and on about loons in the mall.
