Thanks, Calli! I hope she feels all better soon.
Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? Oh right, that would be me. Back to work.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Thanks Calli! A relative had their gallbladder out, and the recovery's no joke.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Thanks for the update, Calli! Even if the recovery is rough, it sounds like it's got to be better than the amount of pain poor Amyth was in before. And at least it'll get less, and stop, and never come back.
Anesthesia can be more debilitating that the actual surgery.
Yup. Postpartum, as the C-section anesthesia was working its way out of my system, it was only a nurse with a bedpan in hand and lightning reflexes who saved me from barfing all over Matilda's head.

"Welcome to the world! Your Mommy and Daddy love you very much--"
"BLARGH"
"Well, your Daddy loves you, your Mommy is going to need a minute."

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Glad to hear amyth is out of surgery and heading home soon

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Heal well and quickly, amyth!

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Thanks, Calli!

"Well, your Daddy loves you, your Mommy is going to need a minute."
Hahah! Oh, I would hate that (the barfing, but I suppose also the being barfed on!)
Thanks for the update Calli!
I ended up with an awful headache this afternoon and had to take a little nap and a lot of painkiller. Am now trying to get some things done--managed to order about 10 different christmas presents or parts of christmas presents today, so that's good at least. I think I have something for everyone on my list except my brother. Who is a jerk, and also gives awful presents. But is also unemployed. I'm thinking a gift card.

Speedy recovery, amyth!
So that was Ginger to me..."Hey, does anybody know how to... or the details about... or what's really going on with...?" And after speculation and wondering, she steps in and lays down sense.
I have a beautiful, pdf version of the doggy lama handbook that would not exist if Ginger had not (rather exasperatedly) stepped in when I was flailing about with it. I asked how to do it and she just did it...in a flash...no thanks accepted.
I had the honor of having what I think were a couple of rare conversations where the upshot was a variation of...yeah, I thought I wanted to talk about taking care of myself but you know what, I'm okay.
She got so much more energy out of doing for others.
