Thanks, guys. I've already had some birthday chocolate and scheduled my reduction surgery for next month, this morning.

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.
Cash, here's to continued birthday blessings, and to the skilled hands of the surgeon, the other doctors, and the nurses who will be taking care of you next month.
P.S. Here's to perky ones, too.
I think we make (up?) our own ethics, just like we make our own fun.
Ah, but just like with the fun, the ethics are intelligently thought out and kept for their own sake more often here than elsewhere, I think. And just because we don't all agree on olives, serial commas, and every ethical principle, doesn't mean the love is less. In fact, I think it makes the community all the richer.
My soapbox, let me show you it.

Happy Birthday, Cashmere!!!

Stephen Fry book signing is sold out. Remind me in future not to be kind-hearted and wait twelve hours to see if anyone wants to join me. Grr.

Started moving out of what have been my lovely student apartment for the past 2 years.
It's been 5 minutes, and my mom already starting to drive me bat shit.
Wish us luck!

Seska, we're happy to learn about good causes like your friend's. Insurance companies can be equally difficult about such things. I think too many believe the goal is to keep you alive, and the quality of that life isn't their concern.
While the borders can be a bit fuzzy, usually that type of announcement goes in Press, as something of general interest.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Good Luck, Shir!

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Seska, email insent to you, re: your friend.
P-C, can you practice with a friend who will give you feedback on your speed? Even if you don't do the whole thing, or only do it in chunks it could help.
Happy Birthday, Cash!
You go, Fay! I think that's awesome.
Anti-deluge and negative effects ~ma to you, Ginger.
And now that I've meara-d, I'm off to lunch.

I'm feeling a little better this morning. I really don't want to go into the office and do work, but I've got some stuff I ought to do, so I'm going to get dressed and give it a try. Plus, my lunch is there, so I've got to get dressed if I want to eat. (I only finished half my lunch yesterday, so I left the rest in the fridge at the office for today.)
