Oh, I wish those council guys would let me have an hour alone in the room with her, if I was larger and had grenades.

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

Timelies all!

Repair guy came on Tuesday afternoon, so we have A/C.

There is no such thing as Too Many Books, just Not Enough Bookcases. :)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

OMG, I’ve just spent three hours talking to literally 9 different people to resolve an insurance issue!

And the last call ended with me being dropped while being on hold. And when I tried to call back they were closed for the day!

So now I’m at the pharmacy just paying out of pocket and I’ll resolve the issue later.

Gah!!

It was! But I got my scrip, and then went to Alembic and had yummy food and a couple cocktails and struck up a lovely conversation with someone new (Hazel) and then ran into two more people I knew on the way out. So that counter balanced things somewhat.

Punishingly Intricate

Knee surgery went fine! Made it home and made it up to bed on the second floor this evening. May have to go down on my butt tomorrow though. Ice machine got here and it’s great!!!

The number of exclamation points suggests the meds are also great.

Glad you're all bionic and resting and ready to be iced!

Yay, glad it went well, lisah! May ice machines and good drugs do their job. Plus PT, eventually, I guess. Go, bionic knee!
