have a good DC day meara! Any big plans?
Zoe: Planet's coming up a mite fast. Wash: That's just cause, I'm going down too quick. Likely crash and kill us all. Mal: Well, that happens, let me know.

Spike's Bitches 37: You take the killing for granted.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…
I have to go back to weeks of having a mummy arm today. Sigh.
What's up, Ginger? And that sucks.
North Beach is indeed a cool nabe. Especially any time that it's not Friday or Saturday night.
meara! You're gonna be over here soon! Cool!!

Meara on my coast, but still so far away. Also, not fair.
I'm at my cousin's place, "working" and waiting for the call to go pick up mom. My cousin air conditions the HECK out of her place, so I froze all night. Am still cold, darn it.

Suzi, how's your dizziness? Has it gone away?

Not gone. I think I've gotten good at recognizing when a wave is coming and compensating. I don't see my doc until the 10th. Though I figure if the MRI showed something major, I'd have gotten a call by now.
I'm starting to come to terms with the fact that this may just be me now. I mean, everything else is coming up fine - blood work, heart, head.... Whatever.
I don't feel as unsteady as I did a couple of weeks ago, so that is a plus.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
The lymphedema in my right arm has flared up and currently the only way they have, at least in the U.S., to bring the swelling down is to have the arm rewrapped every day, Monday through Friday, with progressively tighter short-stretch bandages. It's partly my fault; I failed to wear the stupid compression garment on the arm 24 hours a day. I've always been good at doing prescribed therapy, but there's just no end to this. It's just so fucking daily.
Ginger says, "In October, don't give your money to breast cancer 'awareness.' Give it to research into lymphedema, a side effect of breast cancer treatment that affects up to 30% of women who have surgery." We do fuck all in the U.S., particularly as compared with Australia and Europe. Why? It's not sexy, it's gross. Treatment is not likely to make anyone much money. I think I feel an essay brewing.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
My cousin has to wear a compression bandage for lymphedema as well, Ginger. What a pain.
