Let's see. Here are some other less cliché ways (?) to describe the highs and lows of being in the hospital:
Peaks and valleys
Apexes and bases
Waves and trenches
Horns and tails
Elbows and asses
As and Fs
:)s and :(s
Jon Stewarts and rush limbaughs
Dirty carpets and swept cherrywood
Almost OKs and extra shitties
Anybody have any other good ones?
Donuts and Brussels Sprouts?
(unless the Brussels sprouts are roasted, in which case they are darn tasty. ;)

Crack and crack?
Your 6th drink and your hangover?
James Frey and James Frey?
No idea why these are all revolve around substance abuse. Maybe because I'm painfully sober and coffee-free this morning.
Wishing you more peaks, apexes, and waves, mama.

20th century Tom Cruise and 21st Century Tom Cruise?
Chocolate and arsenic?
"Oh my gosh, you're my favorite author and I bought your book for all my friends!" and "What's your name again?"
Another week closer! Yay!

Clean as a whistle vs. that not-so-fresh feeling?
Michael Jackson from the Thriller era vs. er, now?
Taking a warm bath vs. having to pee really really bad?
I'll think of more, don't worry. :-)
