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

bonny's news is WONDERFUL.
askye, I am glad you went to the ER, and hope your doc finds out what's the what.
I am up at 6:30 (instead of STILL being up at 6:30 am, which, go, team therapy!) to watch my friend's girls while she goes to a half-day teacher conference, after which she is taking me to the rockin' pool by her house.
Since our AC is borked and will be for a good long while, and it was 98 degrees yesterday, I am down with this.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
Oh man, this whole company-being-bought deal is such BULLSHIT.
We -- which means *ME* -- have to send the current issue to the printer. But I was told to wait on production because we (the company) want to run an editorial about the transition. But the editorial has the name of the buyer (who we -- the peons -- are still not allowed to know, although I know that at least half the fucking company already knows and is just being coy about it). The buyer wants the contracts to be signed and official before we run that editorial. But they won't sign the contracts until we send that issue out.
AND I AM THE ONLY ONE WHO SEES THE PROBLEM.
Incompetent!boss just got in my face about how I need to stay late and work on the weekend to "Get this transition done." And when I pointed out that I can't do it until we have the editorial, which we can't run until it's official, but it won't be official until the issue is sent to the printer, he just yelled at me AGAIN that I can expect to work late and over the weekend because we are contractually obligated to send the issue out.
WHY AM I THE ONLY ONE WHO SEES THE PROBLEM HERE?

Good grief, Steph.

Thrive to spite them
The only person who could pull that off is The Doctor with his timey wimey stuff, but even he might have issues with fixed points in time.
Ultrasound this morning. No blood clots. Like I'm sure everyone knew. Drink lots of water, diuretics, and elevation of feet is the treatment plan.
Evidently my body has adapted to Vermont and that adaptation includes my feet and calves swelling up like balloon in 88F heat.
The weather is supposed to cool off so maybe I'll start feeling normal.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Askye, I'm glad it's not serious, and that you now know that.
So, I have a question. If, hypothetically, one were in a foreign country, and one were tired and hungry and didn't speak the language. And one had gone to the NSAID aisle, but had managed to purchase the equivalent of suppository baby Tylenol, rather than, you know, adult meds to be taken orally, is there a way to salvage the situation? Hypothetically. For a friend.
