[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Good news, even qualified good news in a bad situation, is always welcome.
Damn straight. Did I ever tell folks about what happened with the electrocardiologist? We've got surgery scheduled for May 23rd, where they send in a catheter and pinpoint which control circuit is misfiring. Granted "heart surgery on your husband" makes my blood pressure learn the macarena, but the words "the rest of the heart is fine" are worth hearing. This has all been residual damage from the first and worst attack.
Now, if my boss will stop bitching about the cost of health care and trying to think of ways to tricky-foot his way around things and just let the status quo be, we can maybe get things put to rights.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I KNOW! I'm looking at flights to Memphis the first week in June. Blech.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.
Calli, we're here for you. Lean as much as you need to.
eta: Connie, good thoughts floating Utah-wards for best outcomes.

Flights to Detroit the first week in June aren't too bad. (I'm going to my nephew's graduation.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I hope this leads to really effective treatment, connie.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Dentist-ma for askye.
Calli, congrats on dodging one bullet, so to speak.
Best wishes, connie.

Michigan, middle of July. Not seeing anything below $300, really. I'm trying to avoid overnight flights in case Em decides to be cranky. I'm not sure we'll have a seat for her this time.

They gave us a booklet on the procedure. They send in a catheter and attach electrodes to various parts of the heart itself, then proceed to stimulate various areas in order "to induce an incident." "You may faint, but this is part of the procedure and is not cause for alarm." IE, when we find the bad boy that causes your heart to say "What the fuck!" we know we're in the right place. Once they've found it, they then remove it, and another part takes over control.
Damn, I just realized I should tell his sister and all, so she can be there if seh wants. Immediate family, blah blah, right to be there, etc. Do a spouse's right to sit there without having to talk to anyone outweigh any sibling rights to keep watch over their brother? Nah, I'll let him tell her if he wants. He hasn't made a point of telling her in the past.
