In today's chapter of As vw's Body Implodes, she went to the ER last night after having a couple seizures*. After six hours there, and two more seizures, she's finally being seen and tested to check her med levels (on the theory that aaaallll the new drugs are not playing nice with the old drugs, namely the seizure medication. She may or may not be admitted, depending on what they find (and whether a bed opens up). I'm off to school soon so won't be able to post until later this afternoon, but she wanted me to let you know.
(* Note to anyone who's only really familiar with seizures from TV shows -- this is not the convulsive floppy kind of seizure, it's the zoning out and not hearing or responding to outside stimulus kind of seizure.)
Gah! Thanks for the update, Emily. I'll be praying for vw today, that's for certain.
Just checking weather before hitting the road.
vw - my thoughts are with you!!!!
See y'all soon - well from the home puter that is...
Anytime you can write "Yesterday. Walking down the street in Paris..." you've got an excellent start on a memorable spring day.
yep. at first, I thought it was pretentious, but then I remembered that it was the Buffistas :)
Cash, I just bought my nephew and godson the cutest little French pirate inspired outfits. The little jacket has a pocket for "tresor" and says "a l'abordage" (which after much work, we figured out means "up and at 'em" and the girl's says "zoe, la pirate". SO CUTE. they were inexpensive, so if you want one, send an email to my profile addy. (with size)
{{vw}} Thanks for letting us know Emily. All the ~ma I can muster that the doctors figure out what they have done to frak vw's system so badly.
Black coffee:
Happy Buffistaversary Kristin! I remember like it was yesterday when you jumped in with both feet at the DC F2F. It has been our pleasure to have you here.
Hee. Owen so needs one of those. Maybe Kara, too.
So apparently the Sex Pistols turned down their election into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame with a profanity-laden letter that began "We are not your monkeys."
Welcome, Fern!
((((vw))))
Bless her. Enough already.
Meanwhile, prompted by the lovely SA's splendid pics of her new cut, here is my chic new haircut. (Ignore the fact that the pictures were taken by my phone, or that there's no makeup in pretty much all of them. You can still see the general haircut shape thing, yeah?)
I got it cut prior to going for my interviews, but the lass who cut it didn't understand any English or indeed the miming etc that I offered to indicate 'angled bob, please, gov'nor'. The miming generally works fine with barbers here, but I suspect that this girl doesn't cut short hair very often - it being pretty unusual in Egyptian women - and she clearly hadn't got a clue. I ended up with my hands over my head saying "Enough! Enough! Stop now, please!" in Arabic. 2 days later I was in the UK, and went into a shop which charged me 10 times as much, but did a lovely job of fixing what she'd done. Thus the present 'do.
FAY!! That haircut - and you- look gorgeous!
Also, all your work in taking off weight really shows. The shape of your face is quite different. Beautiful before and after, but I just wanted to let you know that there is quite a difference.
{{{{vw}}}} Much health~ma, bug.
