I think I would only be able to order Shut the Hell Up for other people...I would happily buy this for some people, "Can I offer you a pint of two of Shut the Hell Up?!?"
You'll fight, and you'll shag, and you'll hate each other till it makes you quiver, but you'll never be friends.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
is there one doctor who is in charge of your care? I know you are seeing a neuro and a migraine specialist but is there anyone else? And who is coordinating the care between all of these specialists?
The neuro is supposedly the coordinator. The task falls to her, not because she has any treatment ideas--or perhaps because she has none. She's been funnelling the migraine specialist's stuff to me, or trying to find me a new one, or whatever.
But stuff falls through the cracks.
I'm supposed to have the migraine specialist paged before admission time to find out what he's going to do. I'm balky because it's the weekend and because I want to wait until the weekend before admission. Which is just silly.
I can't wait to read how Allyson's sentiment hit people who've not only not posted here, but who don't do stuff like that. It seems obviously touching to me, but hello, biased.
Krav exec producer just walked by and told me she'd be ordering her copy.
Nifty.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Holy crap, it's gorgeous here. Too bad I'm totally not participating in it at all!

It looks like it could be pretty outside, eventually. I managed to leave home without my wallet or my iPod, both of which I needed.
The basic idea is to venture out again after showering; buy a Bluetooth headset, Eureka DVDs (still weird), linocut supplies and some Mario Badescu frippery.
Basic idea.
I also have tennis on the TiVo. And a powerful urge to nap.

ooooh. nap. I have an ENT waiting for me to sign papers at a hospital. But I am busy with the internets and with the breast pump and with life. So I guess Mr. Doctorman will have to wait.
ita, I wish someone other than your neuro could coordinate your care more clearly because then it might be more coordinated. Like some sort of chronic pain nurse practitioner or someone.
Sigh.

Five copies - I bought one and turned one to face out on the shelf. (The rest are food?) They didn't have a table for humor, that I could find anyway.
Whoot!
Other random bits of Buffistadom that popped up in my world this weekend: walked into a local bar and they were playing Lucero. The bartender was from Memphis and was happy to gush with me.
Also, on the highway yesterday, I saw a man in a shiny new convertible with the tag KDNY TRPT, which made me think about Suzi's mom and Sean's S and how much I hope they get to enjoy their second chances ASAP.

I look more rad than Lutheranism
I think I would only be able to order Shut the Hell Up for other people... So I could say, "Here's a nice big glass of Shut the Hell Up!"
Now that I think about it, that's probably why they named it that!

I am bummed that my nano has died by drowning in the wash, thus rendering my exercise and pool lounging time unmusical. But it prompted me to hie myself to B&N, where the staff immediately recognized the book I was asking fo rand made me a proud new recipient of Vampire People goodness. Which I then pimped to my friends C and M over lunch. I'm up to page 141, and enjoying it immensely.
I don't have a good feel for how much sense unfamiliar readers will have with the community of places like The Bronze though—having been a part of it, I can't tell what (if any) gaps I'm filling in.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I have no Vampire book yet. I need to fix that when I can.
I'm in JFK, waiting for 2.75 hours to pass, so I can finish flying home. Vacation was great, but I am ready to be home now.
(Also, I skipped over 1000 posts, so I hope someone will fill me in on anything important)
