I am planning on designing a pattern for and sewing up my hysto incision myself! Oh, damn, they use staples. 
I'm sure you can come up with a pleasing pattern. If you could get them to staple on a few clock gears, you could call it steampunk surgery.
I have an OK Cupid account, but all I did was throw some snark on it and not put up a picture. An actually sane-seeming non-religious sort just snarked back and was pretty funny, aside from an annoying use of Chicago Trib spelling. Now what do I do?
	
 
		
		
I'm all stressed.  Stress is bad.
	
 
		
		
Maybe I'll do a Frankenstein with the staple as the neck. 
Steph, how about you take the staples OUT? That will save me an annoying trip back to the doc's. 
	
 
		
		
 Now what do I do?
Drop some journo-fu on him.
	
 
		
		
Calli, my thoughts are with you and your family.  Hugs.
	
 
		
		
I need to get x-rays of my shoulder done tomorrow.  While I am glad that it's feeling better, I'm really sick of being poked and prodded at.  (I think this may be behind my attempts at henna -- trying to have at least some part of my body that I'm controlling.  Though those efforts aren't working too well -- my hair is still just as brown as it was before.)
	
 
		
		
(((Calli))) You'll both be in my thoughts.
