Oh, Erin, hon. Recovery-ma to you, lovely.
No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I already don't miss them. I have a teeny clear estrogen patch and it seems to be working just fine. I am down to one Vicodin, though, and wondering if I should call my doc and see if I can get some more, or something different, cause morning and post-walking or stairs is still YEOUCH.
How's everyone doing?!

Welcome home, Erin! Recuperate!
I love that story about your dad, brenda. And love that you did get the job, making it all worthwhile! Hee.

Good lord Emily. That's crazy talk.
Erin!! Welcome back! I hope this makes you awesomely better! Superhero-like, in fact! :)
I have discovered that I am, in fact, a pushover. Sigh. Tried to break up with the Girl last night, and she talked me right out of it. Argh. We'll see how this goes. I have promised to tell her more and better when she is doing things that irritate and hurt me. We'll see.

I just had a chat with the Quality Control people--standard touch-base thing--and found out I'm doing pretty good. Apparently, I'm adored in customer feedback. One person sent a feedback saying, "All of you should have 'I love Connie' t-shirts made and wear them every Friday." I think I'm going to track that one down and print it out.
I'm also the second-highest producer in the department, aside from the guy with the oddly unnatural numbers. He's either a robot or his methods are weird.
Now we'll see if there's a raise in it for me.

I have promised to tell her more and better when she is doing things that irritate and hurt me.
I have an idea. You let me know, and I will call and tell her. I'll be nice. Really!
Erin, I'm glad that you have clean insides. And yes, get more vicodin.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Welcome back, Erin! I have to say my post-hysterectomy life is SO much better and less pain-y than my previous life and I am sure the same will be true for you. My only advice is to carry around a cushion to clutch to your incision at all times. And make liberal use of cold packs. Oh, and DO WHAT THEY SAY. In a few days, you will think that you totally can lean over and pick things up, or that you can carry things heavier than they say...but don't.

Quick healing~ma to you, Erin. Hope it's smooth sailing from here on out.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Yay, Erin! I'm glad surgery went ok, and I hope recuperation continues to go well.
Yikes, meara. Good luck figuring out this relationship.
