Your smoothy options are gravely diminished.

Thanks for the colon -ma. Looks like good news. Weird, lumpy mass looks to be benign, but, of course, we're waiting for pathology. Still will require a small bowl resection, because if anything bad were to grow under there, they wouldn't be able to see it. Still have to figure out the pain, and we're still seeing the specialist, but huge relief for today.

Boo for lumpy mass but yay for benign?

Also boo for allergies. Yeesh.

Today is going very slowly. It’s not even noon yet. Wtf. And my dog is being a weirdo and barking at his food just now? Huh?

clearly fruit is best chosen based on Marvel sticker.

On the one hand, yes, clearly. On the other, I apparently have pretty strong negative associations between bananas and spiders so the Black Widow sticker is making me shudder a little. Unexpected!

Eta: Also, glad it's benign, I hope the pain gets figured out very soon and can easily be treated!

Woes on the allergies. I just recently read a mystery short story where that cross-reactive allergy played a role. Good story. Bummer experience.

Weird, lumpy mass looks to be benign, but, of course, we're waiting for pathology.

Woo! All ~ma for the benign to be confirmed as well.

What the heck, Rory? Why the food bork? Here we have perfectly normal bork reasons. For instance, I made a keyboard noise, doggo borked fool head off as if home invaded.

So we're getting this bed for the MCM garden apartment: [link]

And this sofa bed, which also has that vibe: [link]

Yay, benign-ity!

Pix, I hope that tomorrow is a better day for your father's approach to medical care.

I'm glad Matilda had fun with the softball game.

I'm going to a theater tomorrow with a friend to watch Adrienne auf Naxos. It's one of those simulcast things of a live performance at the Met. Kate Lindsey isn't in it, but you can't have everything. We'll be masked, and I expect there to be maybe four other people in the room. It's one of those big, floofy chair places, so plenty of space between people. So I figure it's not too big a risk. This will be my first time in the theater since The Green Knight last spring.

Thanks for the colon -ma. Looks like good news.

Yay! Now I'll send the ~ma for the easiest recovery possible for any further procedures.

Boo on the lack of bananas. They have been off my list along with most fruit because of the keto, but I do love my avocado smoothies.

Nice choices, David!

Enjoy the show, Calli. I do like the super comfy chairs at the theater, but I have become accustomed to being able to pause watching things at home.

but I do love my avocado smoothies.

Yeah... About those.

Kinda not technically supposed to eat those either.

They are just so tasty.

However, Long Covid has potentially made my reactions a little more reactive, so it might be time to determine which varieties really do trigger a response and avoid them.
