Good morning, Fawtlers.
VE-NET-SEE-YAH!!!
Urizen: Great! Hope you get an encouraging report. I know it will be a relief to get him past this.
Doctor gave a glowing report. He can go back to being a puppy, but still keep an eye on him and not let him participate in any 'Puppies Gone Wild' beach party footages. Hopefully by the end of August he'll be at 99%.

** spoiler omitted ***shakes fist in air* Dooms-day! </Professor Farnsworth>And, across town Gary was busy programming his new Doomsday....No, wait! That's my soap opera!Pretty sure that last part actually happened.
So many questions...
[Dr. Zoidberg's underwater home has burned down]
Dr. Zoidberg: My home! It burned down! How did this happened?
Hermes Conrad: That's a very good question.
Bender: [picking a lit cigar from the ashes] So that's where my cigar was.
Hermes Conrad: That just raises further questions!
howdy all, did I miss anything directed at/to me? Latest news we had a killer windstorm on Saturday night/Sunday Morning. Wind speeds constantly over 50mph with gusts as bad as 70mph. it was a beautiful storm though. Half of Ames was without power Sunday morning. still raining here, and I have my first appointment with a counselor today at 2:10. Four days back on Zoloft and it seems to be helping, I skipped the 6 day start at half speed and started on 50mg right off the bat and it has greatly helped. The four days used up the last of my previous prescription and now I start my new one.
Just make sure you have the means or access to remain on it this time. Or I'll conjure a cornstalk elemental in the name of He-Who-Walks-Behind-The-Rows and send him forth.
I haven't seen it or the first one, but have you ever done professional scriptwriting? 'Cause you have the plot of #3 right there; I bet a finished script could net someone an easy half-mil. You might have to part with your 21 grams though....Sex and the City 2... "Honey, I can tell you what happens. Big flakes out. Carrie buys some Manolo Blahniks and humps her new f@@#-me pumps with more vigor than Marcos on a shoe binge. Samanatha gets her cougar on. Charlotte discovers her orgasm. Miranda finally comes out and admits she's a lesbian. They go on an adventure to places they realistically shouldn't be able to afford. Boo-hoo-isms. Big flashes the smile. Happily Cash Grab Ever After. Until #3".
Am I close?
Yeah, that 21 grams is a thorny issue.
Urizen: Hope your doggie has good news on his vet follow-up.
Did you completely ignore Lena Headey?! I'm... I'm not sure I know you anymore, Urzy.Mmmmmm....Summer GlauThe only thing worth watching on the Sarah Connors Chronicles.
For you, my figment: Lena.
I blame Garydee for my oversight.
I'm here. At least for a little bit.
The mother-in-law is now allergic to "ice". It would be one thing if she just said that she prefered not to have ice, but no. She can't have ice or else she will have a "reaction".
That is the mother of all self-diagnosing hypochondriacs.
(Most of my programming experience is pretty well old school.)So, like me, you were the kid with the TRS-80 COCO plugging in text adventures in basic?
I was taught Pascal in school as well. WHY?! WHYYYYYYYYYY?! I want my life back!
I didn't think that you knew me that well.
8-inch floppies rule...
So, that's what she said.

It's fianlly raining here! YAY!

On the good side, my painting is finally finished. I'm just waiting for it to dry before I scan it in and post it on deviantart.
On the bad side, may not get to play tonight after all. :(
The evil b%#*& boss lady told Dan she wanted to do another call tomorrow on an unspecified subject, and now he's all stressed about possibly losing his job. He's already actively looking for a new one, but we can't afford to lose income for however long it takes for him to find a new job. It's sad when you're actually hoping for a performance plan since that will at least buy time. So, he's not really sure he can focus well enough to run the game.

~drools ove the picture of Lena Headey~ YUMMM!!!
So here's what I've been doing to de-stress. It's not working that well, but it sure beats another round of worrying about random assorted crap.

That better not be the case or Urizen and I are going to have a long talk. ;)

Well, he did have an alcohol party over the weekend. Maybe he was too blitzed and took his dog's medications by mistake?
Not that there is anything wrong with him finding you attractive. :)

Oooo, pretty. And watercolors are damn HARD (too difficult for me to attempt to play with anyway).

Thank you. And I took a class last year. That really helped demystify watercolors for me. :)
Ok, back from the doctors. Not much to say yet. They did more blood tests. I turned down the $200 x-ray since the blood tests will tell them the same thing I just have to wait two days.
They did give me a script for something to take for the pain. And I was told to cut out even more from my diet. No more carbonated drinks, and no more smoking....*sigh* I thought stress aggravated ulcers. Anyways, the doc said it sounded like an ulcer to her, but was gonna wait to see if the blood tests showed the bacteria that causes them to confirm. And that she would have to do that expensive ass x ray only if my blood test came back clean, cause then it would be, "weird".
Oh, and the woman that did my blood tests was a sadist, she had to be. I am scared of needles yes, but have had tests done that didn't bother me. This woman dug for a non-existent vein for like....10min! Ugh!
Awright folks, time for this little DM to go home. I've got to make a stop at the bank on the way, but after that it's smooth sailing. Maybe I'll head into queens tonight, maybe not. It depends on just how much the rain cooled everything off.
See ya in the funny pages!
Lyn....he hit the woman with a dictionary didn't he? I told him that would get him in trouble.
I hope everything works out. :(

I hope that the test comes back quickly and that you are able to be without pain soon.
Long weekend is long. Insomnia sucks. Hello FAWTL.

She can côck my rifle any day.

lol. No, but he shoulda. I swear if she fires him I am mailing her that dictionary with 'You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means' written on the front. That woman should be put away for grievous crimes against the English language.
Thanks, and me too. Not really anything we can do about it now. So I'm just hoping for the best.

@Solnes: Hope everything turns out well. And I think I had that same lady do a blood work-up on me about 5 years ago. It was the first time I had a complete work-up done (was diagnosed with HBP at the time), and they needed like two quarts of blood (okay, six vials, but still). And it still took her forever to find a vein.
Still, the weirdest moment was this one time I was donating blood at a bloodmobile and was laying there for a good half-hour, with the nurse checking the bag every ten minutes since it wasn't filling that quickly. She shook her head and said she was going to try the other arm since it looked like she missed the vein on the first arm. But when she pulled the needle out, there was a 2" thread of coagulated blood that came out of the needle. Proof positive of my mutant healing factor. Not even giving blood stopped my body from healing over the wound!

No. I will not squeal like a pig. I don't care if you think I may look like Ned Beatty on a dark moonless night. Put down the Jack.

truth be told I don't have very good veins. Most docs spend time looking for a good one. But seriously, she looked with the damn needle. Its so going to bruise and is sooooooo sore. The woman at the ER last week was an angel, she found the vein and before I knew it had taken 6 vials of blood and set the IV. The world needs more techs like that.

I still bear the scars of donating blood in one of those mobiles. Never again.
So I tell hubby I am hungry, and what does he do? Offer to pick me up Taco Bell. >:(

Don't worry Urizen, you ain't pretty enough for me. However, a little makeup in the right places.....

Yeah, definitely. Personally I have really good veins for that. You can see them under my translucent skin and they don't roll or anything. And I've still gotten techs who had trouble getting the needle where it belonged. Some of these people you really have to wonder how the hell they ever got certified.
So, are you going to do it?Give up soda? Sure. :)
You know exactly which one I was talking about. :P Imagine the money. It'd be like hitting a mini-lottery.
Don't worry Urizen, you ain't pretty enough for me. However, a little makeup in the right places.....
Let's see if there's some rouge in the house...

I don't know. I will cut back and make a real effort to slow down, I am just not sure I am up for throwing my body through that large a loop. Giving up all soda and all the other foods.

My woman has the same issues with elusive veins that Solnes has. Me, OTOH, when I was in the hospital (on several occasions) for in-patient surgery, I had several nurses come by and ask if they could use me as demonstration for their students because mine were very easy to hit. Now, if they'd cut me a break on my bill for each attempt at being a pricking dummy....

I'm sure you can easily find another outlet for your oral fixation once the smokes are out the window. :P
So I enjoyed a small salad. Waiting on hubby to come back with meds. Going to take a nap. :)

I HATE THAT! "Hey nurse, you're the expert and you do this every damn day... why can't you find the f*~~ing vein?!?!
Next time, I'm gonna grab her nipple and hang on before she starts digging. I'll just twist it a smidgen and verbally remind her that we aren't going to hurt each other, are we?
With my luck, the nurse will probably be into pain.
