*Sh-sh, They're in a Courtroom

I am now tonsil-free, and I hurt like hell.  Yesterday I felt pretty good until last night, then BAM pain was my friend.  My tongue hurts worse than my throat at times due to the oxygen tube and the stretching of my tongue with forceps (glad I knew that after-the-fact).  I also took a good look down my throat last night. Whoa. Big, white holes. I am glad it was laser surgery; consequently, less bleeding. The doctor said all went smoothly and he really cleaned out my throat. I am looking forward to feeling like a new woman in the long run. Goodbye tonsillitis forever.  I found myself awake at 4 am this morning feeling like I had 2 giant golf balls stuck in my throat. I sucked on a green fruit juice bar (thanks sis) and waited for the pain medicine to kick in, and I found myself wondering if Tom-weirdo-Cruise would have suggested I take a vitamin and hunker down.  Up his I took drugs, and I am not a pill popper.

* I read this article last night, and I had to reread it again this morning to make sure I really read what I thought I did and it just wasn't the drugs making me think I read a story about a judge who used a penis pump in his courtroom during cases.  I REALLY DID READ IT. The link is there, read it for yourself.  Even if I could talk at this moment, I am speechless in that 'holy crap he did not' way.  I don't understand why the court reporter didn't report it for at least 2 years! C'mon woman! 

The allegations came to light after a police officer who was in Thompson's court heard pumping sounds and took photos of the device during a break in the proceedings.

I wanted to know if the 'device' was full or empty. That would have been the clincher. I think this judge is screwed.  Pardon the pun.
