See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I've been vibing for you constantly, bonny. I'm torn between sorry the news isn't better (and cursing my clearly insufficient vibery), relieved that your new GYN is so good, and sympathy-shuddering over the blood draw.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Does losing Ohio slow Drumpf's roll at all?

Well, it increases the chances of a brokered convention...

This. Plus, right now in Missouri, Cruz is only 0.5% behind Trump. So Trump might not win Missouri, either.

Our wings are not tired.

Been sending good thoughts to you all day Bonny. Thanks for the update. Good to hear you like the GYN. Quick resolution ~ma.

They really are reaping what they sowed.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

But who is left to siphon off votes from him? Cruz and Kasich? I don't see it happening

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Good luck, bonny.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Thinking good thoughts, Bonny.

Does losing Ohio slow Drumpf's roll at all?

Some analysts posited that it might actually help Trump. Because with Rubio gone (CUE THE HAMILTON GIF) it gives Kasich a reason to stick around and keep splitting the not-Trump vote. So Trump loses 66 delegates now, but he may pick up more than that in delegates he might've lost to Cruz head-to-head (and denies them to Cruz, who remains his strongest rival).

I'd say things remain sufficiently chaotic that it's hard to determine just what effect this is likely to have.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I've been vibing for you constantly, bonny. I'm torn between sorry the news isn't better (and cursing my clearly insufficient vibery), relieved that your new GYN is so good, and sympathy-shuddering over the blood draw.

All this, me too, bonny! Fistbump for holding it together during the blood draw. I had a transvaginal ultrasound a couple years ago to check for fibroids. It wasn't fun, a little triggery, but it wasn't nearly as bad as I'd been anticipating. I hope this all works out to be nothing to worry about.

Chris Wallace on Fox News has told Karl Rove: "Congratulations, Karl. You got Ohio right this time."

Compassionately intolerant

Big hugs to everyone!

JZ and Zen, thanks for the vibery...without it, things might have been much worse!

it wasn't nearly as bad as I'd been anticipating

I should be so lucky, Zen. Apparently, things are...um...closed for business, which makes me worried about possible pain but I'll just grit my teeth.

Fistbump for holding it together during the blood draw.

Cheers.

I wish-o-wish I could talk my body out of reacting the way it does, but given how I might have processed my experiences differently, I've just got to be okay with this enervating outcome.

It's time for bath and bed.

Sincerely, I deeply appreciate all the good thoughts. I haven't been talking much about this in meat space and it is a gift to not feel alone with it here.
