Drusilla ,'Conversations with Dead People'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Can you imagine if you went in for a stomach and that was your sonogram? (OMG, DANA!) "What is it, doc? Why so serious? It's not...it's not CANCER, is it?"
"Uh, no, you've been infested with an arch-enemy of Spider-Man's, but it's okay, I have The Avengers' phone number here somewhere..."
"Uh, no, you've been infested with an arch-enemy of Spider-Man's, but it's okay, I have The Avengers' phone number here somewhere..."
If it meant Tony Stark would be swinging by, I'd be almost ok with it.
I'm sorry you're having such a dreadful time, Dana. I say yes to caffeine.
Now that's progress - people can now corner you and force you to look at badly focused pictures of their baby before it's even born.
Ugh, poor you, Dana! I vote yes to caffeine -- isn't flat Coke a classic?
so, is it just me or this a little Georgia O'Keefe?
It looks more like a uterus and fallopian tubes than a vulva, but still, suggestive of female reproductive organs.
I'm disproportionately ragey that a co-worker who sits 10 feet from me came in today with a horrible cold and is coughing, hacking, sneezing, and sniffling every 45-60 seconds. (I feel like perhaps rage is an OTT reaction and that annoyance would be more in line with the situation. But, ISTG, all I want to do is whip my box of kleenex at the back of her head and scream "Go home! Go home and take your fucking plague with you!")
In the "Good" column for the day, I just had turkey and avocado for lunch, which is so damn good I'm regretting only bringing half an avocado to work. And I'm editing with a fountain pen, which makes me feel like a badass. In a retro sort of way.
Oh Dana, I second Jesse's suggestion of flat Coca Cola. And I'm not usually a soda drinker, but it's good for the queasy.
so, is it just me or this a little Georgia O'Keefe?
I'm with Sophia. I was going to say a bit more Judy Chicago than O'Keefe because it looks like a uterus to me.
Love the idea of a writing support group. I'd love to start writing again. It's been ages.
As for the sonogram, they are a bit uncanny, especially since head-on they look so much like skulls, but then both my kids ended up looking like their profile scans.
And, because, I'm old, which means they're old, but FUCK, but my father is scheduled for cataract surgery, which means my sister is going to be nursemaiding both parents, and I don't know if I can help all. Or afford to, since I just dropped dosh on the car.
