Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

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

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.

Tom, so sorry. It was like that with my mom, too. I wasn't there but one of my nephews was sitting with her while one of my sisters took a break. it;s never easy. glad you got to see her.

Shir, every time I hear anything in the news about Northern Israel, I think of you. I'm relieved to hear you are in a safe place

~ma for anyone I missed.

Our wings are not tired.

It's a Scrappy kind of day! Missing her wisdom and hope she is doing well and has a delightful day.

I'm sorry for the excessive ER time, but glad they improved the bandage. Hope you have water this morning.

I've lost maybe 6 toenails when I was doing marathons (big toes more than once). It would take months before they came off. After the new nails grew in under them they just fell off, usually with a bit of help. Amazingly they all look normal now despite the abuse. (My joints apparently will never forgive me)

OK, from the exactly one article I have read about him just now, I conclude that I like him and I like him for the ticket. So, that's a good start to the day!

Oh, and also, Happy Birthday, Scrappy!

This is my first day back at work after vacation, and my brain is made entirely of oatmeal. *Cold* oatmeal.
