Another GISHWHES item is to make a Twitter account pretending to be Orlando Jones and get at least 400 followers. Anyone who wants to help, we're @Or1andoJones.
Sometimes when I'm sitting in class... You know, I'm not thinking about class, 'cause that would never happen. I think about kissing you. And it's like everything stops. It's like, it's like freeze frame. Willow kissage.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

If anyone knows someone who controls the Twitter account of any federal agency (of any country), and thinks they'd be willing to tweet something for GISHWHES, please let me know.

Health~ma for my mum, please. She got through her knee revision surgery fine, but she seems to have gotten some kind of infection post-op. I didn't get a lot of information because part of the problem is that she's having a hard time speaking. She's all raspy and says swallowing is like swallowing razor blades and even drinking is painful, let alone eating.

My dad had a heart attack this weekend. It's his second, and while he's doing okay, I'll be dark from Tues-Sun while I go stay with my parents to help out. Which may involve sitting on my dad to keep him from doing anything he's not supposed to do.

Eowyn's sword arrived today, my lovelies. I'm wearing it now and debating when and if I'm going to take it off. Thank you, it made me cry.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I forgot to mention that I went in for a heart stress test a week ago. Because I am so fat, they had to do a nuclear chemical and dye test, plus stick an long probe down my throat. At least they had me gargle Lidocaine or something to paralyze my uvula.
I was conscious the whole time.
In fact, I determined that something was wrong, and slowly pulled the thing out of my own throat during the procedure.
The doctor was surprised.
It turned out that the suction machine wasn't working right and they got a new vacuum canister and started again.
I'm pretty sure only a little of the anesthesia they gave me for sedation worked, as the needle in the port was found to be bent afterwards.
On the other hand, no plaque buildup, and the heart seems strong and healthy, says the doc.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
My father passed away a little while ago. It happened quickly and he wasn't in pain.
I'm glad my siblings, mother and I got to see him last weekend in the hospital, as he was coherent and joking around on Saturday.
