I saw my doctor about my hip, and she said it sounds like a labrum tear,
Good job self-diagnosing, bio-medical editor!
and the next step is an MRI, and presumably after that I see an orthopedist. At least if I need surgery it would be arthroscopic.
Dang, your household is really getting hit with the surgical repairs this year. Have you considered asking for fewer medical emergencies?
In the meantime I have steroids, which should help the pain, and I have an excellent Reuben for lunch.
A round of steroids and reubens for my friends!
I have boxed up three
(3!)
whole boxes to mail, and am about to traipse off to the P.O. Mail often gets bottlenecked at the getting it in boxes and addressed stage, so this is a minor triumph.

Damn it, I knew I forgot to do something! Maybe I can fix that going forward.
Fun fact: Seems you can replace a failing heart valve on a 77 year old woman with stage 4 cancer with barely an incision and have her walking around a few hours later.
Well, next week. That's next week.
Aw man, now I want a Reuben.

Living in the future is kind of amazing!

It was REALLY good.
Oh, shit. It’s that asshole Polar Vortex.
Did you post that from your iceberg, Tom?
Man, my friend’s bar (& msbelle’s local) caught fire last night. Nobody was hurt but it’s looking like it will take a long time to recover. And such a shitty time for it to happen! This is the second friend to lose their business to fire in the past month here. Wtf is going on??
Yikes! Your poor friends!
Oh, man, that is shotty, lisah. So sorry for them.
