Yikes, Matt! Damn.
Yay hummingbird!
Manhattan is gorgeous today, y’all.
I like the ruffles.

Matt, glad the procedure went well, but yikes! on the incision reopening and going all Buckets f Blood on you!
Tim was discharged a little bit ago and is already napping in his recliner. He has drugs and follow-up appointments scheduled, but nothing until later next week, so things can chill the fuck out for a bit.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.
Oh, Matt. I'm glad it got dealt with, but wow, nobody needs that sort of stress and trauma in their life.
Much love and Buffista solidarity to you; I hope your recovery is swift and complete.
Also sending out some ~recovery-ma~ to Tim. Tep, I hope the next couple of weeks are much calmer for you.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.
Thanks gang! I successfully changed my wound dressing and took a shower this afternoon with no bleeding or pain, so I think I'm out of the woods. Now it's just a matter of keeping my 16 lb cat from jumping into my lap for a week and returning to normal human skin colors.
Here's hoping Tim has a nice rest and a smooth recovery with no unwelcome surprises!

I forgot that the reason we own a recliner is because Tim realized after heart surgery (god damn, has that man had a lot of surgery) that the first few nights up to the first week after surgery it's easier to sleep in the recliner rather than totally flat (or mostly flat) in the bed.
What I'm saying is that I can continue to sleep all sprawled in the middle of the bed for at least another 3 nights, minimum. Woo, hogging the bed!

Re: yesterday’s Connections (was that yesterday?) I usually don’t mind or even like the wacky pictograph ones but I could not get this one.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
Jesus christ, why did I even get out of bed today?

Our wings are not tired.
I was Phew on today's Connections.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Glad to hear you are on the road to recovery Matt! And Tim too!
Go starfish Teppy!
