hey. back from hospital and whirwind trip to CT and back. Dad's good, will be home on Saturday, yay. Tests, good. Doctor is pleased. Dad's cranky but I would be too if I were in the hospital.
Bed now. Work tomorrow. Plane trip Saturday.
Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

Ugh. Have splitting headache. On upside, have internet access back and so can post about it! On downside, headache appears to have eaten pronouns.

Mom is home from the hospital. Her surgery went well. This surgeon is known for "doing it once, getting it right the first time" - let's hope so.
She is hopped up on all kinds of pain meds and has been tucked into bed. I'm not far behind - well, minus the pain meds.

Before I go *poof*. Thanks for all the ~ma. It has been greatly appreciated.
I'm even going to give buffista~ma credit for my flat tire today not requiring a new $110 tire, but just a $18 repair.
With that, I bid you all a fond adeiu. May the night bring you sweet dreams. If not sweet, then hot and kinky.

{{MG}} Recovery~ma to your Mom. And take your pills! At least, lift them, so you can honestly say you've been pumping iron.
{{Teppy}} That is beyond freaking wierd. Lot's of convelesence~ma to your Gramps.
{{Cass}} Peace~ma to the Grandma. I'm sorry your family has to go through this, it is very hard.
IOmemeN, I'm a tad giddy tonight. I took some of my Magic cards in to a game store today and sold most of them. For $1700. Eep. The other 6 are going to be auctioned on e-bay. For, I hope, around $3000. I'm in the state of being able to be knocked down by a feather. If this goes through, I'll be able to totally pay off my Visa card, which will make me very, very happy.

Nuh. Wish I'd saved mine, then. What'd you have, a Black Lotus? Am I making up that name?

The Black Lotus is one of the ones being auctioned. They sell on e-bay for between $700-$1200. I also had 5 of the other 9 Power cards, so those are the ones that will be auctioned. They all sell for between $300 and $700 depending on the card. Seriously, I never thought they'd be this valuable. I only collected them because I thought they were pretty. Last night, to kill some time waiting for a hair appointment, I stopped in a game store and asked if they had a price list, just for S&G. Yeah, they did, and all I did was giggle when I looked at the list.

No shit, Betsy! I feel like one of those people who has an undiscovered Picasso in their attic and takes it into the antique roadshow to find out it's worth a million bucks. My nephew told me a few years ago I had some "valuable" cards; I figured he meant $50 or something! Eep.
