my thread

No, unfortunately we haven't made it through Christmas or New Year's yet. After those diversions we can then move on to the long, boring month of January. At least we have holiday TV shows as a distraction - there are very few TV specials celebrating January.
well.. I'll take long and boring over painful anyday. I think..... I'll let you know when we're about halfway thru january. lol.

chest pains. bad chest pains friday morning, so I went to the E.R. after a few nitroglycerin tablets, the pain was pretty much gone. thus began 2 very long, very boring days in the hospital.

ok, a day and a half, like I said earlier.

I had the first part of a chemical stress test yesterday. I have to go back tomorrow morning for the 2nd part and possibly an angiogram. the doc that discharged me wasn't my regular heart dr., so I couldn't really understand him. I thought he said the angio was a for sure thing, but the nurse says he said maybe. we'll see. apparently what they've done so far tho showed there is some kind of defect...

hell, I was just surprisd to find I had a heart. :D
 
thanks for thinking of me. I'm not really all that worried.... been dealing with stuff like this for awhile now.
ok... maybe I am worried, now. not about the heart, but about going back to work. can't go back to work til I get a note from the doc. can't get a note from the doc til I can get in to see him. can't get in to see him until..... sometime in january?!?!!!

what a merry fucking christmas this is going to be.

Moonbeam - damn babe - you disappear for a few days and then pop back with this news. So sorry hon.

What about calling your Doc's nurse and 'splainin' to her that you need to see the Doc asap in order to get a note to return to work - unless they don't want you to go back to work right away. Which is basically gonna drive you bonkers. AND - I suppose this begs the question but ummm what about all the "medications" you've been using - what did the Doc say about that?

oh, I probably forgot to mention that. :eek:

as for your suggestion, I already tried that. I'm supposed to call back tomorrow. I'm already scheduled off the next couple of days, anyway, so I have a little bit of time to try to work something out.

just feeling sorry for myself because... well, hey, that's what I do best, isn't it?

Well, be persistent with them - squeeky wheel and all.

Yeah - you are rather good at the feeling sorry thing. But hey, that's why I like you so much - those big puppy dog eyes and little waggly tail - who could resist? ;)
 
more dada...

since someone included the song in a nice little package sent to me today. this is an unreleased song of theirs that I got to hear live a couple of times last... whenever it was that I went to milwaukee and chicago. it's called.....

we get so caught up in the darkness
I just need - I need a moment in the sun
I need a moment in the sun

you could kiss me if you want to
or we could sing another tune
either way what I'm really trying to say

cuz we're just searchin' for a good time
we're just searchin' for someone
we get so caught up in the darkness

now I definitely want this month to be over... I managed to get in to see the dr. today and he wants to do an angiogram. the big problem with that is the cath lab at the hospital is booked up until jan. 9, and I can't go back to work until I have the damn thing done.

it's funny... I'm not even really worried about what the test results might be, even if it's bad. all I'm worried about is how we're gonna get by til then without my paycheck. I say again.... merry fucking christmas and happy fucking new year.
 
WELL SHIT!!!!!!!!!!

I got this emailed to me today and - well, it kinda fits.....


THE MOST FUNCTIONAL ENGLISH WORD

HOPE THIS MAKES YOU SMILE

Well, it's shit ... that's right, shit!
Shit may just be the most functional word in the English language.

Consider:
You can get shit-faced, Be shit-out-of- luck, Or have shit for brains.

With a little effort, you can get your shit together, find a place for your shit, or be asked to shit or get off the pot.

You can smoke shit, buy shit, sell shit, lose shit, find shit, forget shit, and tell others to eat shit.

Some people know their shit, while others can't tell the difference between shit and shineola.

There are lucky shits, dumb shits, and crazy shits. There is bull shit, horse shit, and chicken shit.

You can throw shit, sling shit, catch shit, shoot the shit, or duck when the shit hits the fan.

You can give a shit or serve shit on a shingle.

You can find yourself in deep shit or be happier than a pig in shit.

Some days are colder than shit, some days are hotter than shit, and some days are just plain shitty.

Some music sounds like shit, things can look like shit, and there are times when you feel like shit.

You can have too much shit, not enough shit, the right shit, the wrong shit or a lot of weird shit.

You can carry shit, have a mountain of shit, or find yourself up shit creek without a paddle.

Sometimes everything you touch turns to shit and other times you fall in a bucket of shit and come out smelling like a rose.

When you stop to consider all the facts, it's the basic building block of the English language.
And remember, once you know your shit, you don't need to know anything else!!


Just wanted you to know that I do give a shit and hope you have a nice day, without a bunch of shit. But, if you happen to catch a load of shit from some shit-head... .......Well, Shit Happens!!! :D
 
I'd kinda like to be shit-faced right now. just my luck, no more pills. lol.
 
What a week and it's only Tuesday! I'll be so glad when Christmas is over and I'm not running around like a chicken with it's head cut off!

Mr.Moon-I've got vodka slushies in the freezer. Come on over and help yourself.

thanks for the offer.... I've never been much of a vodka drinker. wait.... isn't vodka what's in a bloody mary? I could go for about a gallon of bloody marys.

Bloody Marys - ICK. Tomato juice with a bunch of salad in it - ick ick ick ick.....did I mention ICK?!?!?!?!:rolleyes: If I want tomato juice and veggies I'll make a pot of spaghetti sauce and have some nice pasta and maybe a glass of wine to go with.

Making a huge pot of chicken noodle soup today - gotta go for the comfort food this time of year. :D

I've only had veggies in a bloody mary when I went to chicago. that shit got tossed in the trash. I just wanted the juice and the booze and the spicy stuff. you can have your wine. I've tried it a few times and it don't do much for me.

comfort food sounds nice. honestly, I dunno if anything could make me feel good right now. I'm just sitting here trying to pretend I don't feel as worthless as I do.

dunno if being here is the best choice for that.... dumbass me.

This is probably the best place - or any place to just hang out and chat with people and get out of your own head. I get that way too - a lot lately actually - and find just losing myself in some chatter or researching reindeer trivia :rolleyes: kinda helps the time pass. I was even thinking about digging out a jigsaw puzzle and starting on that but my cats go nuts and steal pieces. Last year I put together one with a cardinal on it and my oldest cat went bonkers and kept snitching the tail or beak pieces.

I've given up on the Christmas card thing - can't even pretend anymore so maybe I'll send Happy New Year cards or something later.

Well, anyway - stay here and play today and continue pretending - 'cept maybe pretend you're a worthwhile person who - no matter how hard he tries not to - really does bring a smile to my day. :D

it doesn't really get me out of my head, tho. with a few exceptions, I feel just as or more invisible here as I do in real life.

see? what did I tell you?

I just realized a little while ago that I'm wearing my black dada t-shirt. on the back are the words
DON'T
youfu
ckingt
ouchme

it's really a pretty cool shirt. the words are part of the chorus of one of their songs. when we all got together for thanksgiving I thought about wearing the shirt, just to see if anyone realized what it said. since my sis and especially my bro are pretty religious, tho, I decided to be a good boy. see my halo sitting on the mantle over there? :rolleyes:

oooooh..... glad I happened to look up and see that I had 10,999 posts. I reckon it's only fitting that number 11,000 go in my thread, whether I have anything to say or not. since I've pretty much been talking to myself, that would be a "not", so I'll just repeat myself, because that shirt is really fucking cool.

although, I admit, it's not really a sentiment I'd want passed around here. there are plenty of ladies here that I wish would touch me. ;)

on that note, it's bedtime for bonzo. not really... probably go watch tv for awhile.

shut up, you're talking to yourself again.

ok... see you later, moon.

right. gnight, mrtn.
