Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

I set up Hulu Plus on my new Roku, and am watching law and order SVU. But it's getting depressing. Tried to hang up some clothes and iron, but didn't get through much of it. Made a pile of things to take to dry cleaning. I'm about to go out dancing.

Teppy, baking cookies you can't eat is hardcore. Wow.

SEE! Love is suffering -- it's doing things you don't want to for others.

Are there Buffistas who like oysters and also have texture issue/gag reflex problems? I'm asking for a friend.

I might fit. I like oysters in spite of a serious gag reflex problem (which oyster don't invoke).

Of the last 6 weekdays I did not have to be at work (my vacation is wrapping up) 4 of them have involved being at the hospital or a doctor's office having things done to Hubby or dealing with the ramifications of test results. Not the relaxing vacation I was hoping for. I hate myself for how pissy and selfish that makes me feel. And now I have to go back to work and he has to fend for himself on getting to the doctors. His daughter is wonderful for getting him to the chemo treatments, but there's all these other checks in between. He had to get a platelet transfusion today, and he turned out to be allergic to something in that particular donor's makeup. The IV Benadryl they gave him for the resulting hives knocked him out for the rest of the day. I wish he'd stop apologizing for all this.

Nobody else has said anything for two and a hours? Where is everyone?

I was at the spa, because after spending all day wincing in pain and being a lump on the couch, Pete decreed that I needed to just go. And it kind of is a miracle worker, because after 3 hours of roasting in the sauna and soaking, I don't hurt.

I like cooked oysters, but haven't tried them raw. And I have some weird food texture issues. (Oatmeal is a no-go for me, and the same with rice pudding.)
