I've been having abdominal pains all day. Not quite sharp pains, just kind of a sporadic poking, varying in magnitude and frequency. They've been quite distracting.
I imagined finally that there was a gnome in my intestines, scraping and tapping and prodding with a rusty trowel, looking for structural weaknesses.
I'd like to believe he intends to repair any such weakness, but I know he's looking to get out. I won't really be in a position to care one way or the other what he does after that.
