Because I didn’t have to go to that sorry-assed hospital today! YAY!!! 
Although we’d been told at first that the springage would likely be today, we were very pleasantly surprised when Dr. Y came by yesterday and asked Mike if he wanted to go home then, or wait another day.
Well…does a bear shit in the woods? Is the Pope Catholic? Do I hate the Y*****s? You get the idea!
So, springage took place yesterday evening. Luckily, I had brought street clothes for Mike to wear upon said springage, in preparation for today, so it was good, NOT a jinx as I had feared! Dr. Y put in the order for the release, and shortly after that, a nurse came in the with springage paperwork. By this timel Mike was dressed and ready to go. The nurse asked if he wanted to be taken downstairs in a wheelchair, or if he wanted to walk. This was surprising, as I always thought that hospitals had some kind of rule about taking sprung patients to the exit in a chair. Mike said he’d walk. The last time he was in there, we had to wait FOREVER for the transport guy to come with a chair…which they INSISTED he have at that time. But given the choice…yeah, he’ll walk…anything to get out of that place ASAP!
However, he did wait in the main lobby while I went to the Parking Garage From Hell to get the car.
