Don't be surprised if you remember your uncles phrase at some point. After emergency surgery a few years back (on Christmas Day no less), I would suddenly remember things as long as 4 to 6 months later. I would quickly turn to my wife and ask questions as a memory would return.

Ask your uncle if he will double it to $300, if you remember within 6 months.

He already took insurance and told me what the phrase was. But that was yesterday, and I still can't remember

Apparently I said a lot of crazy things under the influence of drugs. Good lesson kids, DON'T DO DRUGS! If motivation that you will wind up telling your parents all sorts of crazy secrets and things you didn't particularly want them to know isn't enough, then I don't know what is.

What's even crazier is that not only do I remember anything I said, but there were some people that even came to visit me that I don't remember being there at all. Some visitors I do remember (like my girlfriend), but others I don't (like my not-so-nice co-worker.) I wonder if the drugs gave me a selective memory? (I honestly don't remember him. It's not like I'm trying to block him out of my memory....)

I still have a prescription for Percocet, which I occasionally use when I'm experiencing severe pain. That stuff totally mellows me out, I notice especially in my face. It feels like I have no face muscles, and my mind is somewhere else. When I'm on the Percocet, I try not to talk to anyone or write anything in fear of embarrassing myself . It's funny thought, because I did actually write some poetry while in the hospital under the heavy drugs, something I've never been able to do.

So moral of the story, Don't Do Drugs (unless you need them),
Jacob
