We've gone viral!

No, Heidi is not Viral.  Heidi's head-shaving video has gone viral.  It has been viewed 340 times so far.  Wait, you just looked at it.  Now that's 341!  And now you too!  The internet is out of controlllllllllllllllllllllll.   
Wow, I gotta cut down on the Butterfingers

Heidi's blood counts continue to climb.  Her white blood count is up to 0.6.  That's much, much higher than the paltry 0.5 yesterday, or even the 0.5 on Saturday.  Still, she looks completely normal.  Nurse techs see her racing up and down the hall and ask, "you don't act like you should still be here."  The nurses come here and keep asking, "why are you still here?"  The doctors come in on rounds and ask, well they try to ask but are quickly interrupted by Heidi asking, "Why the hell am I still here?"

The short answer is white blood count.  Still too low.  She's had a mild fever on and off the past few days.  Could be another sign of the bone marrow revving up.  Could be a virus, but surely not the viral head-shaving video.  (Oh, now that's 342!)  We ask when they can take off the antibiotics.  They say not yet.  We ask when she can check out.  They say lots of stuff that makes me think it must be political season.

Tomorrow is moving day at 3NW.  They have been renovating one hall here on 3NW.  We thought Heidi would be checked out before it was done, but apparently her white cells had other ideas.  They are moving everything over tomorrow (yes, even including the Halloween decorations and scarrrrrrry jack-o-latern balloon gloves I put up) and then start renovating the rooms in this hallway soon after.  This will be her second move.  At least this one won't be at 4am.

My plan was to write on the walls and floor before we left.  That would be now.  But no fun stick-in-the-mud Heidi won't let me.  I just want everyone to know that the lack of wall defacing is not my doing.  The viral head shaving video was my doing. Omigod!  It's gone steroidal!
