I got down to 3, then woke up in the recovery room. I was quite belligerent to the nurse because why did they not do the operation? They got me in here, naked in a gown, got everyone together, gave me some anaesthetic then just moved me to another room? What was the fucking point? Would I have to come back again to get it done because I dont have any holiday days from work. Fucks sake fucking pointless man.

Then I looked down and saw all the blood and bandages and "oh right yeah. Sorry. Thanks."

If that were me, I would take comfort in the fact that they probably laughed at me for it.
