RIO THAT SUCKS. I'm really sorry. Ack indeed.

Suela, you are a saint, and as sarameg says, your saintliness is probably most appreciated by this woman who is sick beyond the telling of it far away from home and everything comfortable within. much ~ma for you, your brother's fiancee, and your sister.

Yeah, that woman is damn lucky to have a family to take care of her, so far away from her own family.

In completely other news, I'm watching Desparate Housewives, and Marcia Cross is way too skinny to look sexy with her back arched -- she was all ribs and clavicle and nasty. Upright, she looks fine.

Rio, fuck, that's suckage. Insurance?

I could go in your place, ita.

I don't see much reason why not. It's not like I know the chick whose birthday it is -- one of the krav instructors invited me. Do I call with my regrets, even though there's already nudity on display, and hopefully booze and noise? Or do I just go to the kitchen and make myself dinner?

What kind of men, ita?

Ones with ... I dunno. Pretty ones, I figure, with the WeHo proximity.

And I'm out of Imitrex -- they may have finally refilled my prescription, but there's no fucking way I'm leaving the house tonight to pick it up. I'll have to make do with Vicodin and ginger ale.

Ouch, ita. I hope you feel better tomorrow.

How old was it?

It IS 3 yrs old. I'm not ready to trash it yet!

Insurance?

Depends on how much my premium would go up. I expect if I go that route it will add a few days and much PITA to this whole process.

Sorry I'm so complainy about this, y'all.

ita, hope the vicodin works all too well. There should be more delivery pharms.

Rio, no need to apologize for complaining! 3 years is too young to kill a car.

May your premiums be dealable and your car get back under your hands soon. But not on ice!

Oh please, Rio -- this is totally complaint-worthy.

Poor sick ita.

And I finally figured out that this is actually an old DH rerun, not last week's. I was kind of confused there for a bit.

MI-5: I'm a little disappointed that they went for the easy and obvious ending. I would have liked it better if the retired double agent had survived, and the senior MI-6 guy had been called on the carpet for his perfidy.

By an odd coincidence, one of the books I am re-reading this weekend is Running Blind by Desmond Bagley, which is another British spy story involving the murders of British agents to further a British espionage operation.
