Natter 72: We Were Unprepared for This
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Theo that sounds awful! Dang, I hope it stays not super painful.
Just got a blowout for the wedding, waiting on the other two bridesmaids. But it's pouring rain out, so not sure how well this will work by the time we get back to the hotel, get ready, and get to the wedding venue.
The ER took X-rays, so this is the first time I have definitely broken a bone (or two).
My reaction when the doctor was showing me the pictures was, "Oh good! I wasn't being a big cry-baby!"
My big concern right now is if I'm going to be able to drive my car, which being a standard means clutching with the broken-toed foot. Maybe if I can put on my steel-shank hiking boots or something similarly stiff-soled?
Ouch, Theo! Did they give you a boot?
I am on the train! Heading to my birthday party! Good times.
Timelies all!
It's raining here, I'm waiting for the cough meds to start working and I have a cat on my lap.
I chased a flying squirrel out of the pantry/laundry room this morning.
I win?
Theo, I hope you figure out how to negotiate hobbled soon.
Oh, no Theo! Quick healing~ma to you.
Ouch Theo, hope it heals up quickly!
And ouch sarameg too. You are clearly a moving goddess. I'm pretty sure between the two of you, you and msbelle could rule the world with those skills.
I ought to go grocery shopping. I'm at my parents', and there's not much food. And today would be a good day to go to the good grocery store, since it's Sunday and there won't be much traffic on the highway. But it's cold and raining outside and I'm nice and cosy inside.
It can be hard to leave cosy.
I have achieved coffee, and Isaac is playing quietly by himself. Good morning so far. Breakfast request is egg burritos.
Later in the morning I am planning on meeting up with an old college friend and her son, who is 9, and letting the kids play and explore the Natural History Museum.
Yikes, Theo! Broken toes are so painful and AFAICT just something you have to wait til they heal, nothing you can fix. IDK about driving, maybe a serious boot would be okay.
Flying squirrel? Yeah, you win.
Good luck keeping the blow-out fabulousness through the weather, meara! Fortunately, your innate meara fabulousness is weather-proof.
