Now tagless for your comfort.

Wait. Is that in situ??? HMOG.

I know! I'm so glad I didn't wait too long to take her into the doctor. It was lodged right in the middle on the way down.

The whole event was kind of surreal. I didn't get up expecting to have Liv go under anaesthesia today. Glad I didn't panic but glad I didn't delay getting it out, either.

The funniest part of the whole deal was that the night before, I told Liv she would probably poop the penny out. So when we got to the doctor she kept saying, "But it slid down to my butt!" They had these cool GI diagrams in the doctor's office so I showed her on it where the penny was lodged and she kept pointing to the colon saying, "Is this the butt?"

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Eesh, Cash. I'm glad it turned out okay.

Our wings are not tired.

And I was so casual about the whole thing. Now I wonder if I am fit to be a parent.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I don't know whether to laugh or melt with pity at what Liv (and you) had to go through today. Poor both of you!

I'm getting the pig!

It took a while, but now a 1 mg dose can usually ensure I sleep easily the whole night.

Huh. Definitely something to keep in the back of my mind. Do you take it regularly or just sporadically?

You know, I think that using the word sporadically will remind me of Brittany Murphy for the rest of my life.

You forgot barefoot. Dancing around in leather pants BAREFOOT.

I did! But only because he was barefoot for a while before the leather pants scene and I took the barefoot for granted. Bad Nicole!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

You know, I think that using the word sporadically will remind me of Brittany Murphy for the rest of my life.

The two are linked in my mind as well.

Laugh, JZ! It turned out well and we're making jokes like crazy.

java, I've seen you fret about your pups, so I know you weren't cavalier about it. I was trying to be concerned without seeming like a worry wart. DH told me tonight he felt bad because he probably wouldn't have taken her into the doctor until it caused a problem. When we went into the ped this morning I honestly expected her to give us a laxative and tell us to wait it out.

Well your instinct proved correct, Cash! And I am so glad she's none for the worse.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Wow! That penny was well and truly stuck! Good call, mom.
