Jayne: That's a good idea. Good idea. Tell us where the stuff's at so I can shoot you. Mal: Point of interest? Offering to shoot us might not work so well as an incentive as you might imagine.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

My mother's issue is that if you call an ambulance and it's not an emergency, the military won't pay for it.

In not so craxy news, I'm making a dessert to take to an outdoor concert on Friday. We'll have a table, so I don't need to worry about ease of eating. Should I make galettes (mini free form pies) or shortcakes? I was thinking strawberry, balsamic and basil and white peaches and blueberries for another option (one of the people going is allergic to strawberries). I can put the shortcakes in leftover Chinese soup containers and then people can assemble at the venue.

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

Shortcake.

Thinking it *might* not be an emergency and thus might not be worth the cost is why I didn't realize I had a concussion for many, many days after a car accident. Not really an awesome plan. False alarms are bad. But so is ignoring something that might be serious.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

When my uncle's lung kept collapsing they wouldn't call an ambulance because of money. He's still dealing with the problem all these months later, they keep trying different solutions but none are proving permanent.

I am very Stressy McCrankypants tonight. I don't know why.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I am, too. Although my etiology is much less mysterious. "Oh, you thought you could do laundry because there is a laundry room and our website said you could do laundry? Ha, no." "Shall I spend half an hour digging through plastic bags at midnight? Y/Y?" "How about some rowdy 14 year olds with your breakfast? Y/Y?" I am hoping that getting out of the city and a long bike ride will help. I think I will need some NSAIDs tonight, though.

Have you considered media-based self-medication? Liberal application of music, movie, and/or tv?

Thrive to spite them

I posted in Natter - but

my anxiety over the swollen feet and redness on my shin led me to the ER. I was relaly anxious and obsessing about bad things happening so I figured I'll go, it's small town, they can't be that busy, if it's nothing then it's nothing.

There's swelling in my feet and legs! I have a diuretic prescription (and have taken one) later today I'll get scheduled for an ultrasound. But my circulation is good and blood sugar is good and the doctor and nurses made me feel comfortable and not like I was wasting anyone's time.

And I have to go to my regular GP , I guess to find out what's causing this if hte ultrasound doesn't show anything.

I have started on this application. Also making a chicken pot pie.

I hope they find out something, and that it's simple and benign, askye.

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.

Somebody tell me four o'clock in the morning is not the time to make decisions about purchasing James Taylor albums.

Our wings are not tired.

Ahhh, James Taylor. Yeah, not helpful.
