Happy birthday, JZ.

Visting folks cancelled. Pain-induced insomnia, it's raining up there, so. Dreamed that my knee was in pain, which was odd. I can't get out of bed sitting up. I have to roll with my face smooshed in the pillow. Not unlike the whiplash I got doing practice jumps off of ten-foot platforms in airborned school. How the hell did I do that just from sleeping funny?

ita I wish I could transfer the ER staff here to you. Although it probably makes a difference that last night was "busy" and there were about 5 people there.

Got my ultrasound this morning and results. No blood clots. Like I logically knew, but now I have reassurance. I just have to keep taking the diuretic, drink lots of water, and keep my feet elevated.

The Nurse Practitioner said it's probably from the heat and humidity. I pointed out I'm from FLORIDA this is nothing compared to what I knew. But she countered with - my body has a new baseline for what's normal and the weather has been abnormal (very humid, lots of rain) so my feet got swollen. But I'm still supposed to follow up with my doctor.

It makes me worried about what will happen if I go back to Florida any between April - October.

Happy Birthday, JZ!

I'm sure no ER likes frequent fliers as a whole. I wish they lied less (they were telling my doctor very different things from which they were telling me, plus the people standing right in front of me were contradicting each other very casually indeed) but whatever.

Wow. NSFW off the bat, but this is supposed to be one of those "romantic porn for her" things-- [link] is a set of pictures of a lesbian couple undressing, and the sexiness quotient is through the floor. I do believe there is both bad sex and bad pizza--there's certainly bad porn. Yeowch.

This [link] looks assaulty, this [link] looks like breathing difficulties, call EMT, and sometimes you don't get any erotic vibe off the asphyxiation... [link]

Amusing blogpost on what British people say vs. what they mean.

Happy Birthday JZ!

Yep.

Their expressions are, "We've been trying to get this shot for six hours! Can we go home? Fine, we'll pose some more, whatever."

Happy birfday JZ!

Happy birthday, JZ!

Vacation has been fun so far, but I am tired. Plus I keep forgetting my camera! It's OK since someone else has had one, but I need to figure out where I put mine so I can start taking pics of my own.
