Oh… yeah… umm… I think I may have kind of forgot to mention the fact that I’m having surgery on Friday. Not a big deal. Nothing to worry about. Just a hernia. I’ll be bedridden for less than a week and then I’ll be back on the chain gang.
In the meantime, being just a Newbie/Elementary learner, I was wondering if some of you more advanced students might help me with some vocabulary I might need should I ever find myself in a similar situation in China.
Don’t forget to include characters, Pinyin and English in your examples! Thanks! Here’s my vocab wish list:
I think it’s time for another painkiller.
May I please have another pillow?
Be careful! I think you may have ripped my stitches!
Nurse? Isn’t it time for my sponge bath?
I swear I thought she was 18!
*cough* That, uh, last one might have multiple uses.
I’m going to be stuck behind this keyboard for a few days, so expect to hear from me now and then. I’d like to catch up on some of my Chinese studies while I have the downtime.
Anybody want to come over and watch a few seasons of Venture Bros. with me?

Well, it may be simple surgery but it’s still going to involve scalpes and such. Not nice… I hope everything will go well and you’ll recover as fast as you hope and be able to get some CPod lessons done.
That brings back some memories.. always wondered if it was from playing the trumpet.
Good luck.. and remember no full body crunches this weekend Frank.
All the best, Frank!
Hope you get well soon
