Yay Quito!
I hope an appointment is achieved, ita, and more so that it yields effective relief.
Hey! What a surprise! Hostile 17! Can I get you a drink, Hostile 17?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm so sorry, ita. I wish I could do something.
Enjoy yourselves, travelers! I am wishing I had just stayed on vacation - work exploded in a couple different ways while I was gone.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
digging a small sebaceous cyst out of my forehead.
I have one of those, too! Or, that's what my doctor says it is. I would expect a sebaceous cyst to be squishy, but mine is hard, which is why I went to the doctor in the first place -- I was worried it was something horrific. (Mine is in my hairline, so I haven't done anything about it yet.)

And I got in my car last night and discovered my headlights don't come on. All the other lights come on, just not the headlights. So had to get housemate to come get me, because driving on roads without streetlights with only the running lights is not of the good. So of course I hysterically call Hubby, because that's what I do. That's why I married him, to have someone to call hysterically when the car is weird. I suppose I should get AAA.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
ita, god, I wish we could help. I hope the pain eases soon.
Continuing good vibes for Laura's mom and Connie's hubby, fingers crossed for Jilli, and good wishes for the travelers!
Man, I'd hop on a plane and go back to Ireland right now if I could. Loved it. I didn't post here much, or at all I think, I wish I had but every day was a mad rush to see and do as much as possible. Every night I was exhausted and just wanted to sleep. I'm not sorry we saw all the stuff we did, but I'd like to go back and take it a little slower!

I love travelling with people, but when you're on your own, it's easier to say "Screw the schedule!" and take an afternoon off, or change plans to spend longer at the museum/park/country lane or whatever.
Wish I could have gone with the Ecuador tour, but financial prudence won out -- I'm living on my savings at this point.

Woo! The doctor made his morning rounds at the hospital and kicked mom out! She is on her way home.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Good news, Laura!
Have a great trip, shrift and brenda!
I hope you can find some relief, ita.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Excellent news, Laura.
I've been told by the physician's assistant to go to the ER, which just made me start crying more.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Oh, ita. I'm so sorry. I hope they can do something for you at the ER.
