Call me crazy but I really wish all this rain we are getting was snow.
You are crazy, Megan! ;)

Look at me, I'm dancing crazy!

Thanks for all the fish.
I agree 100% with Megan. Because I was out in this shit today and I, strangely enough, do not enjoy getting pelted with ice.
In other news, I left work at 9am this morning because (whitefonted to protect the squeamish from TMI) I was peeing blood.
Normally I'd be jazzed to be getting a free day, despite the pain and the general ick, but all I could think was that there would be no way that I could sit through Return of the King with a UTI.
I'm currently all drugged up though, so I should be good to not go constantly.

Oh my Elena. That's painful! OOOCH!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh dear. I was wondering how Elena managed to get punched in the liver, but there's no good way (or reason) to pee blood. Take care of yourself, eh?

Thanks for all the fish.
Interestingly I did get punched in the kidneys. The doctor did it to see if the UTI had kidney involvement.
He's a very funny man - I remember the first time he punched me in the back, I wasn't expecting it. He asked me if it hurt, and I replied - rather testily - 'It feels like I've been punched in the kidneys, if that's what you mean!'.
But I'm already feeling better. This may be due to the 2L of cranberry juice I've imbibed today.

I'm crying with laughter here, trying to imagine this diagnostic procedure being used on people from my krav classes.
And just as I'm about to be able to stop crying, I imagine you giving him the One True Answer to a kinda stupid question.

Thanks for all the fish.
Oh! I forgot to mention that we watched Queer Eye For The Straight Guy last night and IWFG!
SO funny.
But the straight guy, Allen, was a moron.
At one point he was making canapes and sweating up a storm from nervousness and he mopped his brow with a tea towel and then used the same towel to polish the serving tray! The queer guys and my husband both reacted instantly and with the same UHHHHHHHHNNN sound of disgust.
Jai is my favourite. Brian remarked that he looks like Pepe from The Simpsons all grown up.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.
Oh, Elena! Ouch and ugh. I hope that it goes away as soon as possible.
Whoops! Missed the beginning of Objects in Space. Can't not watch an episode of Firefly!

They're baaaaaack.
I went to the ENT today. Polyps have returned, though right now they are very small - but big enough to block my smell receptors. (I've actually been tasting food ok the last 2 days but smell is much reduced.) I'm trying another, stronger nasal powder (Rinocort) and if I don't really improve I may have to try the cortisone injection again.
I'd say I'm surgery bound in another 2-3 years.
