Gronk. I think I need more coffee. I just walked across the street for an early lunch, thinking, "I should see if food will up my blood sugar enough to avoid coffee!"
Yeah. NSM. Gronkified.
It's a real burden being right so often.

Spike's Bitches 35: We Got a History
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

The Ick finally hit me. It started last night and I woke up this morning feeling terrible. I called in sick to work but I have so much school stuff to do that I can't get too much rest in today. Argh.

{{{GC}}} Feel better.
I've had what feels like the beginning of the ick for a couple of days, a sore throat and can't get enough sleep, but so far it hasn't blossomed into the full blown ick.

Great news, Ginger! What a relief.
If she were 50-ish, the Oncologist would recommend chemo, because there is a 10-15% chance it could come back in (I think my mother said) 10-15 years.
The Oncologist said she's not discriminating against my aunt based on age, but that age and physical condition factor in when they make these decisions, because of how chemo beats up the body -- which makes total sense.
I am so glad to hear this, Cindy. My mother was 78 when she was diagnosed with stage four colon cancer. They had no choice but to do chemo and radiation to shrink the tumor to an operable size and it was the treatments that killed her, not the cancer itself. Which is why I say, get your colonscopies early, people! Especially if colon cancer runs in your family.

Oh Sail, your poor mom. The anniveraries are hard sometimes. I hope this one is warm and gentle for you.
And a world of word to your PSA. My aunt never had one before. If she'd been getting them regularly, who knows how much more good-enough this all would have turned out. I do know the doctor told her the colonscopy saved her life.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Yay, Ginger!
((((GC))))
((((SA)))) And seconding that. Both of Hubs's parents died of cancer, so he pays a lot of attention to that sort of thing.

some how i have to convince myself to take the car to the tire place to get the tire fixed.
Car things and phone calls to strangers - the two things I would never do if I ruled the 'verse.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
There was head shaking.
What, you don't transport cats by rolling them inside tires?

Well, it wasn't even that sort of thought. I thought that for some reason, beth had convinced herself she ought to take the cat with her, while she went to see about the tire.
I don't even think beth has a cat (although I am not sure).
