OK. What is a testicular reflex? I mean, whenever Mal has a physical, he's so not into it that his testicles are up around his spleen and the doctor just assumes he's got two of them. Is the withdrawal the TR? Or is it more like when you hit a local nerve and the testicles move a bit?

...and, while I was typing, Mal fell asleep on the floor. Speaking of low energy.

ETA: AND while I was typing, Tommy cites Duran Duran to answer me.

I like the rain. I would even say I love a good storm. Even if it does make me look like a red shaggy dog had a litter on my head.

However, we have had a week's worth of storms with no end in sight. It's starting to get a little old.

Poor Emmett!

Aaaand...now our phones are out.

Daisy, please to send some rain this way.

Each time the boys have had physicals for sports the doctor has just drawn a line through the genitals section and didn't check anything out. No doubt they appreciate this.

You're welcome to it. Here is our weather [link]

"Purple will Reign" on 07/07/07 with a 24 hour online charity event and a surprise performance by Prince.

umm, if you announce it more than a month ahead, it's not a surprise.

Yuck Daisy. It does look like the worst is about over. Fair weather wishes for you.

umm, if you announce it more than a month ahead, it's not a surprise.

Maybe he'll cancel before then, then it'll be a surprise when he actually goes on.

Or maybe the surprise will be that he's performing Abbey Road in its entirety.

I have faith in Prince's ability to surprise, I think.

Anyway, get well soon to Emmett, and I am so glad there's no lasting damage. That's got to be really unpleasant, though.

Seriously! Poor little guy.

Why won't these people send me the offer letter they were supposedly writing last night? I am going CRAZY with the waiting! And, now, I'm thinking maybe i was too optimistic too soon and they've decided they don't really want me! EEEE

ooh ... poor Emmett. Hope the pain stops soon.

and best wishes for a letter to lisah FAST.

From Overheard in NY:

"Old man: How do I love thee? Let me count the ways... Pie."

Morning, All.

Offer-ma to lisah & ChiKat.

Speedy recovery to Emmett.

Umm, hugs & ~ma to anyone who needs/wants that I missed.

I'm feeling a little whiney today. I thought I'd be able to start wearing my contacts again today, but woke up with newly pinked, slightly itchy eyes. So, that's glasses for another dance class tonight. And in my dance class on Monday, I pulled something in both arms working on the lift we just learned for our Jitterbug routine. (It's gonna be really cute, just practicing it a few dozen times wasn't so much pleasant for the upper arms, or shoulders, or chest, really). But no need for brackets, just wanted to whine for a sec.
