I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

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

Not good stats! Don't fourpeat! The kid next to me, last visit, with the meet cute, had kidney stones and some morphine he was exceedingly happy with. I hope the transition to percocet isn't bad for you.

And if they give you IV compazine, steal it for me. I can make it worth your while...

It wasn't compazine. Not sure what it was. But it worked.

They also gave me a prostrate drug. Um. Thanks?

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

I hope you don't end up with a med gap and the stone is gone, gone, gone soon, Kat. That sounds awful.

That means you can't sue, it doesn't mean you can't complain.

Exactly. Infections near your brain mean you get to squeak some wheel.

I feel they could have said something more than "we know your time is valuable and you are frustrated". No, let's take a minute--my health is vital and I am unwell and in pain. It's amazing how much difference not-a-form-letter would make.

Time Warner could have saved me officially ranting and the $10 off my monthly bill for a year if they'd just treated me like a valid human. They were inr the wrong and if they'd just been nice, I would have dealt. But they were assy and so I fought. Also I was right. That helped.

I want to see inside a Genesis. I want to know what Hyundai does when they play in that area.

Oddly, I had one as a rental for about a week in February and really liked it. I can't tell you what build but I was surprisingly impressed. The airport rental line was crazy and I lost three cars before e agent grabbed that one. I was just desperate at the time but ended up being glad that It was the car I got.

7 mm?? That's horrific! Maybe they can lithotripsy the thing if necessary.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Ugh Kat, I hope the percocet does its job and the stone passes ASAP.

Yikes, Kat! Good luck.

I had even more drama with the folks after I posted earlier, but frankly I just can't bear to repeat it. Thankfully a friend invited me over for wine & mussels, and I ate too much fabulous French cheese and bitched & moaned for a couple of hours over a nice Argentinian white, and I feel much more human now.

And my fabulous sister is taking my shift with the folks tomorrow, since I'm parented-out. Go siblings.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

ita, if you need to figure out the side the gas tank is on in the future, there's usually a little arrow next to the tank symbol on the gas gauge on the dash. 76 advertisements have a little pun on the symbol, like: [link] (my car doesn't have the arrow, but most should nowadays.)

Yeah, I've been seeing that arrow for ages, I think, and just learned what it meant last year.

I hope the stone passes soon, Kat.
