'A Hole in the World'
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.
Not a heart attack, but I tried to drive myself to critical care for a kidney stone. It might have gone better if I'd left 15 minutes earlier.
Hubs was at the gym, and the pain was getting bad. I texted him before I left the house. A couple minutes later, he called me to insist on driving me there.
Kidney stones are Not Fun. Their one redeeming feature is, no long-term effects.
I don't have a car, so I caught a cab to the ER when I had a stroke - does that count?
In lighter news (literally?), there's a kickstarter for a Disco Dog vest.
edited to add that it seems to have closed down ... but still, a fun idea, IMHO

Nope, because you're not the one responsible for operating a 1-ton metal machine that could kill you and/or other people if you lose consciousness. (Literally, the only way I could get my dad to stop driving himself to the ER was to ask him how he would feel if he lost consciousness and killed other people.)
ah, good point
ltc did very well in her first swim lesson.
ltc did very well in her first swim lesson.
Yay! I hope she had fun.
She loved it and is very proud of herself.
There's a lot to be said for peer pressure re swim lessons, and seeing the other kids having fun.
Karl, glad to hear you're doing well now. (Heart attack took my Dad at 52, and both my brothers have had to have procedures around that age!)
Yay ltc!
Good gravy, Karl! Please take care of your very good heart.
Great job, ltc. sj, I think you will find that swimming is the absolute best thing for tuckering kids out and getting them to bed in a timely fashion.
After Matilda's very fun baseball camp, she's in a new camp this week that goes on a field trip every day. She's already texted me twice to tell me she hates it. And they haven't even gotten out the door yet.
