So much love and hugs to Scola.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Oh, Tom. It's so hard, but I'm so glad to hear this. Waiting for someone to die is...I don't even know how to finish that sentence. But I'm glad to hear you're feeling a tiny bit of respite.
What Pix said. So many complicated feelings. Adding my love to the pile.

Sj, what do you mean about maybe not seeing a new therapist? Tired of getting yet another therapist up to speed?
Which reminds me, i need to find a psychiatrist here. I made an appointment at a practice that does both psychiatry and pain management, but they canceled the appointment and now I can't get anyone to call me back. I think one of the doctors left.
In more exciting health news, I got my boot off today and can drive. X-rays look good. (For anyone who missed it on fb, I fractured both feet in my second week at my new job, while on the job)

'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"
My day was a mild case of frustration -- the work car threw a Check Engine/ODB code that means there's possibly a camshaft timing problem. And the dealership we've used before can't see us before August... 23th???!!! So I'll be seeing if I can get a regular, trusted, mechanic to take a look. Also, if they think it's safe to drive a mile or so over to them...

Thrive to spite them
I'm so tired of this day, we are still waiting for the guys to come and fix the water issue. They were supposed to be here a half hour ago and I just want a shower.
M's got different bandage type on his toe, he is resting with his foot propped up. It looks like the new medicine and bandage are doing the trick because I don't see any blood seeping....don't gouge a chunk of your nail bed out, that is the advice I have from this.
I think all told it was 8 or 9 hours at the ER today. I want a shower so bad.

Sound advice. I had a big toenail ripped from the bed by a line drive whilst pitching batting practice, but it didn't gouge the nail bed.
That said, it still hurt like fuck and the nail took its sweet time growing back in.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated
A few weeks ago when I was trimming my toenails, I started to clip down on the nail of my second toe, and the entire nail just...lifted away. There was a little blood, but not like you'd expect for having an entire toenail suddenly removed. My best guess is I caught my toe on something (I am very clumsy and stub my toes way too often) and it damaged the nail bed and the nail was not going to stick around to get stubbed yet again. Now that toe is freaky looking. Like it lost its hat.

A toe without a nail is basically a nubbin.

It is! It has no personality.
