Spidra, any more word on how your dad is doing?
I'm sad now. I had to cancel my trip. Too many things conspired against me. First my MIL bailing on me, then the face ouchy (getting worse not better), then the event particulars changed requiring Brendon to only be there Tuesday. So I called Delta and now have a credit for a future trip. Changed his reservations, etc. That was a couple hours of annoyance.
I was looking forward to seeing St. Louis with my sweety and Anne. Just wasn't meant to be this time. Poop.
Laura, I'm so sorry you can't make your trip.
cough international schools cough
Would be lovely! But I'm not sure how to go about it...
(Although in person I'm pretty much, well, just me. Er. But I have lots of shiny handbags! They're pretty exciting! And it's conceivable that I might have a tattoo whilst in SF. Maybe. Possibley...)
Fay far outshines her own handbags. Plus she's a Person Who Wears Hats (and makes it work).
Laura, they took a scraping of the skin on your face, right? Could that have caused the infection? Or is that just a regular ol' complication? Sorry your trip got cancelled.
Aww for smitten billytea! And also, an x-post from my LJ:
According to scientists who made rare observations of wombats having sex, published in December, there was chasing, biting, grunting, and stops and starts, along with the female's bewildering "figure-eight dance," which she employed as a pre-requisite for being mounted.
I thought we were keeping the Snot Monster busy here, Cash. Sorry it got to your house too. I've spent two nights quasi-sleeping in the rocking chair holding Mal so his drainage doesn't choke him.
Turns out his nanny came over sick on Tuesday...and then told me he was sick because we had the windows open.
Awwwwww. Billytea and the Wallybee make me all squee-ful.
As for *my* boy, let me just say that being in a relationship with someone who has ADD can be very VERY maddening at times. Last night was one of those times.
Of course, it doesn't help that I'm the *most* impatient person on the face of the planet. (SA suggested, when she was here a few weeks ago, that maybe The Boy is the universe's way of teaching me patience. Bah. Crazy universe.)
ION, I have a new v. short haircut, and if I can motivate myself to upload pictures, all y'all can see it.
Laura, they took a scraping of the skin on your face, right? Could that have caused the infection?
I talked to the doctor that took the skin for the biopsy and he doesn't think it's infected. He thinks it's all irritated from a reaction to the bandaid then made worse by the triple antibiotic stuff. He has me just cleaning it and putting plain vaseline on. Just itchy as can be now, and ugly. Stupid sensitive skin.
Patiently waiting for Teppy hair pics.
baaaaaaaaah. I don't think I did enough research, I'm stalling out at page 13. I still need at least 4-5 pages!
Spidra, I hope your father heals quickly. Ouch!
vw, may the steriods do the job it was meant to do, and leave the rest of you alone!
Yay for haircutted Teppy! I had mine cut yesterday, but Hec will just have to live with the fact that I won't be cutting it short any time soon. I like being able to pull it up into a ponytail exercising, hiking, flying, etc.
Yay for bt & love!
Go, Nora! I know you have 4-5 pages in you!
The DH and I are supposed to go to Yosemite tonight or tomorrow morning. He's at a frisbee tournament in Davis, and doesn't know when he'll get home, thus the uncertainty about our departure. Yesterday, a woman he knows (and who he was hoping would play on his team this year) died at the frisbee fields after a seizure, so a part of me is a little nonplussed that they are playing games at all. According to my DH, she was really a lovely, upbeat person, who was a nurse for children's Hospice. I hope that someone is at least acknowledging her passing by passing the hat so that they can make a donation to Hospice in Ana's name.
You can do it, Nora. You totally can. Take a little break. Get some food in you. Then attack it again.
Sparky, that's so sad.
