Today my mother was having a surgery. Thankfully it was not something major. Further thanks, it went without a hitch. Well, the process itself that is. The surgery need to be delayed until 3-4 hours behind the scheduled time, due to my mother cannot stop defecating after the prep longer than what was expected, so they skipped a turn ahead. Process is smooth sailing enough though, and the hospital is a good one, including its room facilities.
Now we just need to wait on the lab analysis of the removed tissue, and her recovery.
I left the hospital in the evening, switching watch post with my elder brother. I slept as soon as I arrived, because I didn't really got any sleep the night before while waiting on my mother.
Woke up to a leg cramp, ouch, ouch. It last longer than its normally do as well. My half woke mind remembers reading that I need to keep the leg straight or somesuch and pull the foot up, but uh, trying to command the cramped leg to do so does no good for the cramp. To use my hand to pull on my foot requiring me to rise to sitting position, which hard to do while cramp as well. In hindsight should have tried to swing down from the bed. Anyway, I ended up doing nothing other than trying to command the leg to relax and wait it out.
On the silver lining, with that duration, I was expecting worse post-cramp pain than normal as well, but it turns out even lighter than what I would expect from a shorter duration cramp. Still, I'm not feeling like going out for dinner (the rain season weather is bad enough already)
Go-Food to the rescue! (fyi, food delivery service branching out from a ridehailing service) ... I was having hard time deciding what I want though.
I've been trying to add more fibers to my diet this few weeks, and I haven't really go any yesterday, so I've been trying to add as much as I can today. In the late morning I had a random mix of vegetables from an eatery next door (if I say they sell buffet-like style, it is understandable what I mean?) with just small portion of rice and one perkedel . In the afternoon ... I didn't really eat. Just a unicorn flavor ice cream cornetto (

Thus for dinner I've been craving for some good stuff with decent veggie. But what was to order. Thankfully, Go-Food is offering a free delivery cost promotion. There's a list of shops that I can order without extra cost (well, beyond the surcharge the put on menu price anyway), a long one. I went and went over the list. I want something with vegetable, but I want something good. But I don't want to spend too much either. There's place with good menu, but the price is more than what I'm willing to spend at the moment. There's a place with decent menu, but their price is too high for what it offers. There's a place with cheap menu, but I'm not sure how good they are. There's a place with interesting menu and decent price ... but said menu don't have enough vegetable on it. And there's plenty of places with unappealing menu!
Okay scrolling down the list of shops for almost an hour is fruitless, and I don't get any less hungrier with time. I switched tactic. I'm usually pretty easily agreeable with soup dishes, so I instead searched for soup dishes and went over the result list. Hmm, some unappealing choices, some nice but pricey choices. After some soup-searching, I decide I'm interested enough for a beef rib soup. There's a place that offer one, complete with rice, at 42k IDR (that's a bit less than 3 USD). There's another place that offer at cheaper price ... but it don't come with rice included. The first option, then. But wait! There's yet another place that offer at cheaper price, and not just complete with rice, it also come with assortment of crackers and pickles. This is it!
Not too long after, the order arrived at my door (And yep, it's a good choice) While eating, maybe because I went through such a pickle in choosing my order, I was reminded of Kodoku no Gourmet . So I turn in to watch some episode of Kodoku no Gurume. Considering the premise, it is quite the appropriate companion to my dinner, I'd say.
Tis quite an eventful day.
Now, I just need to finish a post for philosophical debate on infinities and morality in a PMMM quest, and then I can hit the bunk. Or maybe I can do that in the morning instead.
As a closing, a quote from Kodoku no Gourmet:
