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

Timelies all!

Healthy vibes, sj.

Mr. S fell off the couch and hit his head on the tv stand yesterday. Got a nice bruise on his forehead, but seems fine otherwise.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Has anybody heard from sj? It's not like she doesn't have Mr. Teacup to watch out for her, but I'd like to know that it's all OK now.

Our wings are not tired.

Mr. S fell off the couch and hit his head on the tv stand yesterday.

I think the parents suffer more over these than the kids!

Has anybody heard from sj?

She was waiting for results last I heard. Hope she went home and got a nice nap.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Oh, how droll. They're telling me that one of the return legs of our flight, in 10 days, has been canceled. So now I'm trying to figure this out and finish packing because we leave FUCKING TOMORROW.

lisah, I so appreciate the offer, but since I'm trying to get appointments off referrals, me is required. I left 3 voicemails today for callbacks I was promised & haven't got. I can't get a goddamned person. If they keep being this crappy, I may mine your sources for other recs to cross ref with my insurance. I suspect the issue isn't the drs, it's the front desk. If by Friday, I haven't got an appt, I'll see if I can get my dr to do it. Maybe I'm just not using the right word, I don't know (you'd think, referral, dx, bloodwork, YOU CAN ACCESS MY RECORDS IN THE NETWORK BECAUSE DR SENT THEM would work, but hey. What do I know.)

But hey, I have neighbors who will intercept an early delivery of 55lbs of paint stripper, take it inside & then redeliver despite 55lbs of awkward & stairs.

At least I have them in my corner.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Sorry! I was at the ER all day and then I came home and slept a lot. I'm okay. Very tired and a little out of it but all the test results were good.

Good! I'm glad you got sleeeep.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I'm glad you are ok, sj!

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

Good news, sj.

I am sadly often up for the day by 4am Eastern, and almost always by 5:30.

The number of early birds reacting/commenting on my 4am FB post was surprising. The only one that I wouldn't call freakishly early was posting from New Zealand.
