You always think harder is better. Maybe next time I patrol, I should carry bricks and use a stake made out of butter.

Mmm, chopped liver.

Permanent crown achieved, I go back for a general exam in a couple of weeks we'll reassess how the broken tooth is doing then. Came back to the office and saw my co-worker and her son in the parking lot - he's a little banged up but no broken bones and no internal bleeding, he told me himself he feels fine and was carrying crutches rather than using them. Whew!

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Timelies all!

Urgh. Took 25 minutes to get off NIH campus, because everybody was trying to leave from the same exit.(Normally it would take 5-10 minutes) A water main broke on the major road on the other side of NIH, so no-one could go that way. Once I got off campus it was normal traffic.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That all sounds good, -t!

Glad to hear he got out of it relatively intact, -t!

And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

Can I ask for some ~ma, please? My good friend, Gabe, whom I'm staying with in NYC, is in the ER with a pulmonary embolism. He has multiple blood clots in both lungs. They are admitting him to the hospital tonight, as soon as there's a bed. It looks like he'll be in the hospital for about three days or so. Terry (his husband, my BFF) and I are with him and waiting, and he's conscious, but very short of breath. We are trying to be calm so that he stays calm. I think he will be okay, but any good thoughts would be appreciated.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

~ma for your friend, amyth! And for the son of -t co-worker.

Cubs win! Go, team! I'll bet I don't get SHIELD tonight, just wrigleyville madness.
