The Coffee House

[Frank F.]

We have an oxygen deprived air to breathe here in Bonn. As often. I feel a tad woozy when I lift from my desk. Must go back to my daily sportive routine. But not tomorrow. At a quarter to nine in the morning they want to push a camera up my ding dong to examine the bladder. Never tried that before. Diagnostic measures are not always painful but this sounds a bit ... strange at least ... stuff is supposed to leave my body at that end not enter, right? Wish me luck!

Ouch. Good luck!


Ouch.

Shtick-Schmick ... Gary has no proprietary hold on third person. While Gary, may be the first person (notice how cleverly Gray wordsmithed third and first person across his text), to have ever spoken in the third person ... Gary makes no claim to sole ownership or license to said grammatical expression and usage.

Gary is confident that he may seem a jerk for using third person ... but there is plenty room for others.

Mmm, no, it's pretty much become your shtick. IIRC, this took over the Coffee House a year or so back, and most of us did it over a weekend or so, like the occasional haiku invasion. You're the only one who chose to stick with it. So yeah, it's become your shtick.

Not that there's anything wrong with that. ..

It is Gary's understanding, (not personal experience), that in those situations, the camera is streamlined enough and doesn't hurt ... but lights are a killer ... especially coming out.

Gary can juggle also ... maybe it's time to take this on the road ...

Ugh. Was up sick all night. Feeling a bit better this morning but shaky and exhausted from lack of sleep and too much time spent driving the porcelain bus. With a 3 day business trip looming followed by a weekend trip to the White Mtns for some leaf peeping, the timing is just terrible. Not that there's ever a good time to be sick but there is definitely a worst time and this is it.

God speed on your recovery. You'll be raring to go is what I'm believing.

Ugh - I'm sorry, honey. If you're pretty sure you're done yakking, it's time to think about hydration - part of the weakness is having lost so many fluids. Ginger ale, or simple carbonated water can be easy to start with. Drink a little, wait a while to be sure it's settled, then a little more. Don't even think about trying to do anything today other than caring for SharonCat! Once you can hold some fluids, switch to clear broth, jello, etc., then the dry toast/crackers thing. Hopefully you'll feel like you have a small amount of energy back by this evening but, more than likely, after what you just described, the day is shot. Don't fight it, like I'm betting you think you should. Just give in and relax as best you can.

Light ejaculation??? I will bring my sunglasses!

Aw SharonCat what a time to get sick. Hopefully it will run its course in another day or two. Get better soon and enjoy that jello.

Was watching the beginning of the show The Chew - you can tell who's from the midwest (AKA the eastern midwest) like me, the one doing all the kvetching about hot weather and clingy spandexy T shirts, and banging your knee on the table leg, etc. etc. If we didn't complain what else would we have to talk about?

Lol - you mean don't get all my regular work for the week done in one day then pack, grocery shop, do laundry, finish the pre conference reading materials, choose and order prints for the upcoming art walk and the 20 other things I need to do before I leave? Hahahahahaha

 

[SquarePeg41 3]

I'll be offline for a few days. "Talk" to you all after the weekend!

NO!

.....at least hold off till 4pm or so. And go minimalist on the packing. Yes, you are allowed to read the materials and make notes, lists, as long as you're settled on the couch.

Grocery shopping while you're gone should consist of a bunch of frozen foods. Stuff that freezer and forget about it.

Good luck!!!
