I'm a vision of hotliness, and how weird is that? Mystical comas. You know, if you can stand the horror of a higher power hijacking your mind and body so that it can give birth to itself, I really recommend 'em.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Yikes! I remembered your awful hospital stay but not that it was your pancreas that put you there.

Our wings are not tired

It was acute necrotizing pancreatitis. I wouldn't wish it on anyone.

I'm glad further imaging is producing relatively good results, JenP.

ND, I'm so so glad you made it through. Necrotizing anything is a terrifying thing to have to fight off.

Pancreatitis was what put my mom in the hospital a few years back, too. When a woman who used to get 3-day blackout shades migraines tells you it's the worst pain she's ever felt, it's bad.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

acute necrotizing

Two words that are never good news. Yikes indeed!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Really glad you got past that, Drew

I think my legs are sore from looking at pictures a college friend posted to FB of his running the Boston marathon

Thrive to spite them

Yay for healthy pancreases.. pancrei??

We are headed up to my dentist appointment (and to see Mom) we stopped to get gas and M made some remark about the gas pumps sometimes not working/being out and tbe guy also getting gas made a comment about it being Biden's fault. M shoots back "no man Biden didn't start start war " and I didn't catch the rest but the then I hear M say "just be glad it's not Trump ...." And then just rails on how Trump would be pro Russia and want a wall built and I heard the words Nazi Germany and I was just sitting in the cat thinking....that guy probably loves Trump.

When M got in the car I told him that and M was just "I don't care ". I was a little worried about how the guy would react but M wasn't. I don't think the guy was expecting a dude who is kind of redneck looking to bash Trump so hard. (M was looking more redneck/country today)
