And if I have a seizure or start vomiting or feel out of it or anything, we'll totally go.

That sounds like a plan to me.

I had a migraine. Now I took meds and slept for an hour and a half, so I'm pain-free but loopy and groggy. And I have SO MUCH work to do. ARGH.

But I did finally manage to call my doctor and request a refill/change (my prescription was with a mail order pharmacy, and then my insurance changed and doesn't use that one, and I have been putting it off for weeks, and now I'm running out of everything!) And first I got a recorded "request a refill through your pharmacy and we'll do it thanks!" but when I called again and stayed on the line they were very nice and helpful, so yay. Though I should possibly not celebrate until I actually have the prescriptions.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Why isn't Hugh wearing the white shirt?

Which movie should I see this weekend? Real Steel or Drive? Apparently Real Steel isn't that bad, but it seems to be a movie about the kid more than the dad.

Man, the developer on this one project is still asking me a million questions like I manage him. I need room, bro. Room to breathe.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Argh, buffisat types, stay safe! Or, failing that, heal fast!

Today it was sunny and then rainy and then hailed, and now is snowing big giant chunks of snow.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

In theory, yes. In practice, I've had a bunch of them, thanks to my epilepsy, and this doesn't feel AS bad as many I've had. (I realize that sounds kinda ridic, but.)

It sounds redic in some ways but I know I couldn't have typed what you did when I was concussed. Well, I realized later I was concussed, but no way could I have typed that out during. So long as you are being checked, being careful and promise to go find medical care if there is an indication you need to, I am less freaked.

Punishingly Intricate

Amyth, yikes! Really glad you have trusted folks watching out for you.

I wanted to go see 50/50 but then I started crying when my co-worker was describing seeing it last week so I'm thinking I may have to pass on it.

ita, one mass is good, for sure. The period of not knowing exactly what was going to happen treatment-wise was really hard. There are a lot of options, which is good, but meant that for what seemed like a good long while we didn't know which of the three -- surgery, chemo, radiation -- were going to happen and in which order.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I might see Drive! And then we could talk about it. I also might see What's Your Number, which you already saw, right?

Yes! I'm totally willing to talk about that anytime. Very funny.

What it says on the tin, right? I think that will be more of what I'm in the mood for.

ION, I totally did a good deed! I put up a note in my building saying I had gotten an extra month, and a neighbor just knocked on my door saying she had never gotten the initial letter! So she had no idea about any of it! OMG.
