I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.
I have been asked to perform a song with The Cheap Suit Serenaders at their once-yearly gig. [link] This is HUGE for me and I am happy as a little girl.

If I could have some surgery- and outcome-ma for my brother, I'd be greatful. He was diagnosed with neuropathy in both feet six months ago, and had pretty much gotten the diagnose that it was degenerative and he'd have to live in a wheelchair. However, he recently got an MRI which revealed that he has a ligament pressing against his spine, which is causing the problem, so he's scheduled for surgery later this week, or early next (they need to make sure some prescription meds are out of his system before surgery).
This is actually good news, in that there's a good chance he won't be in a wheel chair and will be mostly back to normal (there may have been some permanent damage). He's seriously p.o.ed that they didn't do the MRI six months ago, as he might be fully recovered and have been able to make it to Maine for Xmas instead of being in the hospital over the holidays, but otherwise in good spririts.
