aurelia - I just got a semi-colon appreciation society pin via wordnik and would be happy to send it to you.
That would be amazing! Thanks!
sarameg, that sounds like it needs attention of some sort. (x-post)

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

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

I've been online but not here. I'm still very much in a mood to talk politics and strategy and I didn't want to bum out any of the Buffistas who were wanting a place to get away from that.
Gah, sarameg. I had a couple gallstone attacks and that was it for me. I looked into options but the pain was so paralyzingly bad that I knew I couldn't work if I got an attack at work. So I had my gallbladder taken out. No ER visit, thankfully. I hope the attacks let up for you and that you find a treatment option you like.
Today's another day of trying to make myself study chem like crazy. I have a "quiz" on Tuesday. Our quizzes are like tests, our tests are like finals, and our final is likely to be like something Torquemada devised.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh no, Sara! Here's hoping they can fix you up quick.

I just requested inauguration tickets from my 2 Senators and my Representative. Hope I get them so I can not use them and diminish the attendance by 2.
If you are sitting on your butt in front of your computer, you can do it too, just emails or forms, takes 30 seconds.
Is there any talk of such action on Pantsuit Nation or the other secret groups?

This is the first I've heard of that. Pretty ingenious.

I have vacuumed. Gosh, the amount of dirt and dust that built up in a month. But then, it was moving in lots of stuff, with attendant dust. So obviously something to do every week to keep up with this. Ah, this grown-up life.

Yikes, sarameg. FWIW, when my primary thought was sure I had gallstones based on the location of my pain, the specialist couldn't find anything and also thought the timing of the attack was not as indicative of gallbladder stuff as my primary. Never did figure out what it was, but it pretty much went away, so. And my more recent bout of similar pain that did send me to the er got me entirely different tests. Still with no actual answers, but, well, do get it checked out as soon as you reasonably can, is what I'm saying, I think.
I'm glad you have a helpline to turn to with these decisions!

Shoulder pain is also indicative of a gallbladder attack. Sara, unless funding is a real issue, pain relief for a gallbladder attack is something I kick myself about in retrospect. I had 8 attacks before I got it diagnosed, and it was worse than broken bones.
I went to the ER for the last attack and the relief was incredible. I wish id gone earlier. If it is the gallbladder, the laprascopic surgery was easy and so, so worth it. I haven't had any digestive issues since.
