Earthquakes and conspiracies

I have been slightly too preoccupied with feeling sorry for myself the last couple of days, and I didn't realise that another of nature's sinister inventions unfortunately has taken places. I am of course talking about the earthquake i Chile and the subsequent danger of tsunamis in the whole pacific.
This far, it seems that the tsunamis have been confined to forceful waves of not to extreme height.
Even though lack of tsunamis, the extent of this disaster is humongous, and my thoughts go to those affected..

Not to be bizarre, but 2 earthquakes of this size, so close in time and place could give rise to quite a few conspiracy theories.
For example, I bet that there are those out there who swear that this is brought on by the USA as a step in their evil plan to gain world dominion. Of course this task was carried out by the CIA, as to make everyone think it was just nature playing trick again.
Others, I'm sure, will take this as a sign that the end is nigh and that these are all signs that world will go under. Or maybe that the multiple tsunamis are just a foretaste of "The great flood". I wonder what they make of the abundant tsunami-warnings?
I stick to the boring scientific theory, that there're some movements in the crust, and that stuff like this happens whether we like it or not.
Still, i think its fun to play with theories of conspiracy theories.
Here's a favourite:



On other news, I was finally let out of the hospital this evening. Of course, it had to happen, as nobody brought me those easter eggs. Apparently my wellbeing isn't really important for anyone :P
Its a wonderful feeling, knowing that I wont wake up to get injections in my back, have to get infusions and new cannulas. Im just savouring every moment and really hope that i won't have to go back.


I realise now, that in addition to being sad because of the pain, what annoyed me the most must be the "room-mates".
I was allowed going outside for a couple of hours today too, and really enjoyed it. My good friend Anniken came and picked me up from the ward, and we had coffee for 3 good hrs. (Luckily it was decaf).
Later, i realised that my canula had to come out, as the whole area around it had turned blue and was quite tender.
When I got back to the ward, the "roomies" discovered my missing canula at once, and also made sure to inform the nurse that i hadn't got my injections for the evening. Neither had i been eating as they could observe, so the list of their report to the nurse was LONG :P
It was at that point i decided that I had to go home. I know, being a med student, I know, I should be the first one to realise the importance of finishing a hospital stay the right way.
However, I don't feel like i have done something, the doctor was nice and said yes to my request to go home without much ado. Only thing was that i had to promise to go see the neurologist tomorrow morning, and I have no problems doing that :)

Good night!
