Recently I reread Samurai, the autobiography of Sabura Saki (the hightest scroring Japanese fighter ace to survive WWII). At one point he was severly wounded in combat, and had to fly half paralyzed, blind in one eye, almost blind in the other, with an open head wound, for six hours to get back to his base. Anyway, he had to have eye surgery where he had to stare at a spot on the ceiling without moving his eye or blinking for 20 minutes, while the doctor operated on his eye without anesthesia. If he had blinked or moved his eye, he would have been blinded. (whitefont for eye surgery squick). So my eye squick has been broadened and getting a shot in the eye doesn't quite provoke quite the same reaction.

The pill thing sounds incredibly counter-intuitive, tommy, but cool.

For some reason, the pill uses a different steroid than the regular injection, which is (I think) why it's supposed to be better.

DELAYED FLIGHT!

Nooo!

I'm still really down with the idea, and would love to have my boundaries strongly pushed in that regard.

It's true. 7 hours in teh airport were just not enough. We are stretching it out to 8. That is IF teh posted time now stay s true, it is not as if there is anyone from the airline at our gate or anything.

That sucks msbelle!

Ah, Project Runway. The whickety and the whack. Y'all know that there is this girl out there who didn't make the cut and yet decided to try to match the designers challenge for challenge on her own. Project Outcast To quote Nina Garcia, it's not aesthetically pleasing.

7:40 - original departure
8:40 - first listed delayed departure
9:00 - current listed departure, but we've been told it is really 10.

Not the worst thing ever, as I have free wireless and a pillow, but I kinda wanna get home and in my own bed.

Ugh. Flight delays are the worst. Are you at least getting food vouchers?
