I think I had a point when I started typing that post. Now I think I just want to be in a cool air-conditioned bar.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Of course, I told myself if I got freelance work this month, I'd buy new glasses, but I just got an email from my favorite store about their summer stuff being on sale, and I WANT IT.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Always Anti-fascist!
Worst pain: Mostly digestive, I gotta say. Apart from something emotional.

Mostly digestive, I gotta say.IBS. Turns out I don't like Demerol though. Made me paranoid.
I should really stop pretending to work today. I just built a graphic for this Web site. Hi-res vector. D'oh. Rastering the motha now. [Translation: I wrote something! In Portugeuse. For the Elbownians. D'oh! Dilberting the pretty words now.]

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Car accident featuring: fractured coccyx while laying on a back board (I was literally sitting in the hospital moaning, "my ass! my ass!" because I was pretty out of it) and no pain meds for the first few days since I had liver lacerations.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
The cauterizing of the nostril - this would be to prevent or stop too much bleeding?
That is correct.
I've never heard of cauterizing a nostril before. And it sounds awful.
It is indeed awful. And being a well-read 10 y.o. I knew what cauterizing meant, though I presumed that it would involve local anesthetics and maybe some electrical device. Not the doctor having the nurse hold my arms down, while he dipped a q-tip in a big jar of highly caustic chemical and then stick it up my nose. And then...while I was trembling with pain and rage...he did it to my other nostil. It was between the two that I had to Not!Punch him with great effort.
There was some screaming at my Mom later, and feelings of Betrayal and Mistrust of the Medical People.

Our wings are not tired.
Youch!
The sales tax here at 6.5% seemed like a deal after seeing 9.75% in upstate NY. We don't have any income tax in Florida, but my real estate taxes are a killer. Last year $7000. I think tax free is this week. I need to go school shopping quick.

My ass was grass, and that backboard was the lawnmower.
