'Harm's Way'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Ooh, I like that dress!
I just saw the funniest thing on Facebook: It's the birthday of the first boy I had a crush on, and some other girl sent him a picture of her 5th grade diary talking about how she got to play with him and maybe he likes her!!!!! So I guess it wasn't just me that thought he was dreamy.
That's adorable, Jesse!
I also really like that dress--it reminds me of when Erinaceous was doing all those Duros on her dress a day blog.
It just looks so comfortable, yet also dressy.
I should clarify that when I said "some other girl," I, in fact, meant another grown woman in her 40s.
Strength and comfort to you both, Liese and Consuela.
Tim asked me to go, because he said he forgets things the doctor says (though I said "WRITE IT DOWN") and he forgets things he wanted to ask/tell the doctor (again, I suggested he write it down ahead of time). So I get to be the external hard drive.
This is my dad. A few weeks ago he was in the hospital and complaining to me about how sore he was from a procedure and a doctor walks in and he's all "Doing fine, no pain or discomfort, why do you ask?". GRR.
He's back there now after some complications, so what dad~ma is not heading Suela's way we could use. He's getting to that place where every medical issue or procedure seems to set off a cascade of other issues.
(Here, he went in for a heart catheterization, which they had to try a few different ways because of artery issues (and ultimately could not do), then he developed a blood clot in his fingers from the cath process - which he did not get anything done about even though he had lost feeling in two fingers, until my sister saw how purple they were and made him go to the ER - then in preparing to treat that they saw his kidneys weren't functioning well and yadda yadda.)
I spoke to his doctor this morning and they think they've got a bunch of this in hand, but lordy. And note the original issue he went in for still has not been addressed.
Oh, I want that dress.
Oh man, brenda! Best to your dad as well!
My boss just cancelled our weekly meeting, forever. Now I have to try to find time "as needed." And his EA is about to take a different job. That should be fun...
Dad~ma to you too, brenda.
Consuela, Liese, love and strength to both of you. It's all so hard.
brenda, health~ma for your dad, and also some communication and go-to-the-flippin'-doctor ~ma. Dads, man.
I wish my boss would cancel the weekly meeting forever.
