I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

It could be no big deal, but I would certainly feel better if you went to Urgent Care.

So, the nurse advice line advised me to call 911. I felt really stupid, but I did it (and then ran around frantically cleaning my place). EMTs came, took BP (little high but not unexpected given the fact I'd been told to call 911). Refused transport to hospital, will go to the doctor in the morning.

The midpoint stop of my Tom Wait's tour.

miss Canter's. And Molly Malone's.

Molly Malone's is where Tom Waits and his new wife, Kathleen Brennan celebrated their wedding after they eloped in Watts.

Thanks for going along with the emergency call, Vortex.

Glad you're ok vortex! Better safe than sorry (didn't your brother have a heart attack or something at a ridiculously young age, too?) that said, at one point during a race I realized my whole foot was asleep and thought there was something awfully wrong and was starting to freak out when eventually I realized I had just tied the shoe too tightly. Oops.

But maybe still plan to see the doc in the morning?

Bro had an infection of his pericardial sac, most likely caused by a hard blow to the chest, along the line of what one might get playing rugby perhaps :)

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.

Vortex, whatever the heck is going on, I'm glad you had an assessment by the EMTs, and I hope if it isn't some minor weirdness that you are able to get it sorted out soon.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Another 7am meeting. I hate everyone so much.

I'm glad everything was okay, Vortex.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I thought I hated everyone while waiting for the bus for 20 minutes in the second hot day of the year, but that is nothing compared to a 7am meeting.

Glad you're OK, Vortex!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I am glad you are okay, Vortex.!

I am not glad that it is Monday after a very nice three day weekend, or that I already have 6 new tasks waiting for me at work.
