smonster, I hope we can do a birthday exchange or at the very least (this is more realistic) talk on the phone before I leave for France. Maybe we can make a phone date for this weekend?
I'm going to see to Wesley, see if he's still whimpering.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[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.

sj! I'm surprised, I thought you were nicer than that!
Me? NSM. Although it is a common assumption.
I just called back. The assistant said, "Oh, I was just about to call you!" Ha! Anyway, she is now finally going to talk to my doctor, figure out if she wants to call in a new prescription or if I have to come back in (seriously?). She swears she will call me back today. If she doesn't, I swear heads will roll tomorrow.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

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.
Oh, sj, what a PITA for you. I hope that you do hear back quickly.
I'm here in Daniel's hospital room... we had lunch together, and he is now giving in to the pain meds given right before he ate (I had to wake him up a couple of times so he would not fall asleep in his cottage cheese). I am soooooooo glad I brought lots of fresh veggies (and some small containers of Ranch dip) and some roast turkey lunch meat. The broccoli salad they gave him was one that a coworker makes and is absolutely delightful, except she obviously does not work for the hospital food service. So it was something other than delightful. And I'm continually astounded that they consider the amounts of vegetables and protein they give him even remotely adequate for a large man who is fighting a massive infection. Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't it take a fair bit of protein, among other things, to build white blood cells?
On the upside, Daniel tells me the doc said his leg is improving. It looks more icky, but I keep reminding myself it is just part of the process.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
All possible good healing wishes to Daniel and his leg. And to Andi.
I need to go make it look like I accomplished something today. And I reallyreallyreally need to buy, sign, tuck a check in, address, stamp and, you know actually, really *mail* the birthday card that's been on my list for a week. But before I can do that, I have to find my other checkbook.
Wish me luck. Send a search party if you don't hear from me by COB. Here I go.

Windsparrow, how are you doing? This has to be difficult for you. I'm glad to here that Daniel is improving!

I have to go back to the doctor tomorrow. I'm so not pleased.

WTH, sj? That's so not on.

What she said.
Finding checkbook~ma, Beverly!
Dammit. I'm so out of spoons right now.

Glad to hear that Daniel's healing, Andi. Continued ~ma in that direction, and lots of ~ma to you, too.

Healing~ma for Daniel.
