What is even happening?

Grace had another biopsy today. My own issues held up her getting the biopsy for 4 days, which means I need to check my ego out of the picture and be more at ease about this.
I hope the news from it is good. I don't know about ego, but I know you wanted to know why it was medically advisable before you let them perform surgery on your daughter, and I know that's part of the job.

Tomorrow is another big day: pick up the $200+ in prescriptions that are being hand-compounded for Noah, hear back from the home health people about the monitor and the oxygen tanks, meeting with the occupational therapist for a developmental assessment of Noah, and something else, but I can't remember what that is.

Oh my word. Yeah. Unglued is good.

(ohmigod, Noah's going home soon! Grace has got to buck up so he doesn't start to think he owns the place!)

Yeah (listen to ita, Grace).

I choose...I choose unravelled. I'm pretty sure that's how nervously I am breaking down.

I hope you ravel, soon.

I wish, ita, that instead of unravelling, we could find a way to crochet you back up.

Would anyone be surprised my knowlege of compounding pharmacies comes from....cats? I thought not.

passes out the knitting needles I don't know how to use and peels fingers off the spilled superglue bottle to pass around.

eta: hah. posted that before I saw Kat's wish.

(ohmigod, Noah's going home soon! Grace has got to buck up so he doesn't start to think he owns the place!)

Pretty much that. Snuggles anytime you want! No minders! Diapers full time!

I hope Grace gets that indulgence very soon.

Hrm, I think I'll spend this weekend getting them a coulda-been-OUR-birthday gift.That'll be my gift to me.

When you need me mostest, let me know.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Holy butt! I got a box of author's copies!

woohoo! that's a fun thing, Allyson!

Random: While Noah and Grace don't share Sara's birthday (and oh how I wish they did) they do share a birthday with Nathan Fillion.

My geekiness is done.

Also, good lord, Helen Mirren is two years younger than Mick Jagger.

Hey, they were thinking about ejecting during MY birthday.

Remind me to ping lisah. A friend of a friend is considering a job here and while I can offer some tips, I AM a homebody, so I need to hook her up with more connected people.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

Big Boss called boss afterhours with a question demanding an answer before 7:30am.

CRAZY

so boss calls me - and we were on IM for the past hour talking through this TOTALLY NON CRITICAL ISSUE.

Finally he calls me because he cannot understand what I explained in IM like 3 times. GRR

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Know something really sad? When Polgara took me to the ER and I'm sitting there in triage, Patrick the nicest nurse in the world comes out and frowns at me and holds my hand. Once I get back to the bed he comes over to put the line in without waiting for doctor's instructions.

As for the doctor, he figured to try what he'd used on me last time, but Patrick came and ran it by me anyway. And asked where my normal ER cohort was and critised my lack of muscle.

No wonder I had the Cheers theme music going through my head all day. Sometimes replaced by Golden Girls, which I get a lot of these days. But mostly Cheers.

No more unravelling tonight. And I'm going to try and make it all the way to the weekend without losing any more ground.

Tangentially, why the fuck am I being spammed with PDFs?
