I just saw the new Ford Fiesta (new for us Americans, non-American folks) in the parking lot. It looks nice and it would be nice to know you're set in case you're chased by baddies in a black corvette or need to assault a beach.
Y'all see the man hanging out of the spaceship with the really big gun? Now I'm not saying you weren't easy to find. It was kinda out of our way, and he didn't want to come in the first place. Man's lookin' to kill some folk. So really it's his will y'all should worry about thwarting.

Was cute yesterday and am blah today.
I bought a shoe organizer and took two bags of clothes to Salvation Army last night. Then I filled two more bags with clothes to donate and concluded that I own far too many T-shirts.
Tonight I need to empty out the dresser and figure out what to do with my clothes while I wait for the new dresser to arrive, put together the shoe rack, and assemble the TV stand which should arrive today.

Apparently Johnny Depp went around ComicCon dressed as a squirrel: [link]
Good think Pete Wentz was in Asia.
This was also my first thought....

“Not dead yet!”
Went back to the hematologist for a check up. He told me the results of the lab I'd had six weeks ago-- basically, I was walking around with no and I mean NO iron in my blood. Of one of the counts, he said the upper end of normal was 200; I was at 4. I thought I heard him wrong, so I made him repeat it and he said, "Yes, FOUR."
And then on another one of the counts he said, "On this one, you were only marginally better, registering at 4% of normal."
On the upside it would make me really unattractive to vampires?
But I told him I was feeling MUCH better since I'd begun taking the iron which he definitely took as a positive. I had more blood drawn today and we'll see what that shows. Another blood draw and appt. in six weeks and hopefully, we'll be done, provided today's blood draw doesn't show anything funky.
Sheesh-- who knew?

The only thing that could have been better would have been Depp dressing up in an on-purpose-crappy Captain Jack Sparrow costume. "Oh yeah, right. Sure, HE thinks he's Johnny Depp. Poser."

Barb, my mom went through misery with low CBC, and of all the treatments she got this year, she said that the shots she got to raise her hematocrits was the most effective.

4!?! Wow. Hope there is no further funkiness and the iron continues to make you feel fine.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Hah!
Barbara Streisand has claimed (probably jokingly) to do this during Pride.
