Atlantic Canadian Monday Madness  

[NAFDA] We used to get Buffy the day before everyone else, now we get Angel a week after everyone else. And Firefly every Monday!

Thanks for all the fish.

But I hated that they talked about Spike having withdrawal from human blood. Dudes, it's like saying you're withdrawing from not getting your favourite food.

And it did seem that they exploded the CoW. But they didn't know where Giles was, either.

Oh, and Brian got his ENT appointment for December 10th. He also seemed quite bitter, Megan, that you didn't ache and has decided to take up Pilates on the chance that he'll ever need another CT scan.

It sounds like Brian (I ALWAYS type Brain first) was in the Scanner a lot longer than I was. He must have had a more thorough job done than I did in Dartmouth. I can give him some Pilates pointers!

What ENT is he going to? Same as before?

Halifaxistas, I just sent you emails to your profile addresses. Nothing big, just a funny picture Brent sent me. If you haven't watched last night's Buffy, wait before opening it.

Megan, good luck tomorrow at the ENT!

Thanks Sue. Apparently my GP called this afternoon and talked to Brent. My CT Scan shows that my sinuses are completely closed over, though it doesn't appear that I have pollups. She suspects that my allergies have caused a huge production of mucus so I'll have to address that in order to prevent further incidents of sinusitis.

She suspects that the ENT will book me in for a lavage rather than endoscopic surgery. It sounds like I'll still be put under a general anesthetic but I'll find out tomorrow.

How was your presentation?

It went okay. Not stellar, but okay. Last night we cut out almost half of our slides to be under 15 minutes, so it was a real gloss. There were other people, however, who spoke for 30 minutes, so I was a little annoyed.

So lavage is better than surgery? Funny they were just talking about that word on Literary... maybe they summoned the lavage!

I may go see Harry Potter tomorrow. My brain needs a vacation.

Thanks for all the fish.

Megan, things will go great, I know they will. As long as there is no packing, you'll be fine.

Brian has to go to Woodlawn, Dr LeBlanc.

Brian's CT took 8 minutes...

And I'm glad they got the results so fast!

Brian has to go to Woodlawn, Dr LeBlanc.

That's where my GP and my ENT are. I think Dr. LeBlanc is new. The booking office at Woodlawn called me and asked if I would mind going to him and I said "Sure, just ask Carla (my doctor)." She apparently held out of Dempsey but at my last visit to her she said she was sorry she didn't go with LeBlanc since I could have been in much quicker. I'm sorry too!
