10/30 – A couple of things

Please know that I am not happy that ANYONE is losing their job, ever.  And that my happiness regarding the next sentence stems from this.

DHL is basically ending its US service.  But seriously, their service has been so bad, from my experience, this is really not a surprise.

Here's another little nugget.  You should exercise and get lots of calcium, especially if you are a woman.  MommaShyner just found out that she has osteopenia.  Nothing on too serious of a level, she just needs to exercise and get more calcium, which SHE BETTER!  I know you read this, Mom!

And since I know you're reading this, I am going to share this because I thought it was funny in a downer sort of situation.  MommaShyner said that she didn't think that this was something that really affected "us".  You know, like Black folks "us".  Um, we've still got bones and we're still female, so that's more or less who these sorts of conditions target.

It's not like we're white and she found out she had sickle cell, because then she could say "Damn, I didn't think that sort of thing really affected "us"!"  I love my MommaShyner.

In case you're wondering, the girls are coming along nicely.  Although the range of motion I have at home is considerably diminshed when I'm at work because it's colder than the proverbial witch's tit in our freaking office!  Today, I couldn't even use a pencil because my hands were so cold.  I think I may just take my Steelers fleece into the office tomorrow to stay warm.  Or I'll really piss them off and get one of these.  That's right.  A slanket.

That's probably enough links for today.  Peace out till tomorrow ya'll!

9/30 – It’s Sunday already?

I guess the weekend goes by pretty quickly when you spend most of it sleeping.

Ugh, yes, Ugh, Steelers.  I'm sure that I do not need to remind you guys of all people how important it was to win that game to stay ahead of Baltimore.  Jerks.

I have had a headache for approximately 2 days now.  It really sucks.  I think it's leaning towards mini-migraine and concentrating itself in the left rear quadrant of my noggin.  I bet if I had a chiropractor this would get fixed in mere moments.

Sorry, but this is all I have for today.  My eyes are rebelling against me.

Nighty night.

8/30 – Cures on the horizon

I wanted to do this on my laptop to make it easier for you but I just don't feel like getting up. I also tried this before but my phone crapped out. Sigh.

Over the last two or three days, I've heard about possible cures for sickle cell and diabetes from www.post-gazette.com and www.wsvn.com respectively. Hopefully these things work out as they would mean giant advances in medicine.

…..holy smokes LSU just blocked a field goal to send the game with Alabama into OT!…….

I would be remiss in my duties as shit stirrer upper if I didn't mention the coincidence between the election and the announcement of possible cures for two diseases that really affect black folks.

Discuss among yourselves…I'm going to take a Percocetand hope the girls STOP itching!

See ya tomorrow.

7/30 – The aftermath

Well, I'm at home. I went in at two and waited. And waited. And waited.

At about 2:45, me and Lovey went back into the freezing cold room. Luckily, Obama was running late with his press conference so I got to see the whole thing.

Ewwwww, they insisted on putting the IV in my hand. I think the nurse thought I was gonna pass out when she put that nasty thing in there. I thought I might too.

So we sat in the room, ultra cold for too damn long! Seriously, I didn't see the doctor to draw on my boobies until at least six!

Well, I finally got into the room and they strapped down my arms and legs and started the sedative and I got nothing after that.

Next thing I remember is waking up with my new boobs partially out, LOL.

Luckily (and hopefully it'll stay this this way), I'm not in any pain and I'm wide awake and I already ate at McDonalds. 🙂

Just want to send my thanks to everyone for your well wishes. As soon as the girls are ready for their close up..not THAT close…I'll share. 🙂
