I've never thought of my knees as Wednesday's children
I suppose they are, with all the woe and pain they've kept
paying rent in the space between my bones. Sandpaper
and scroll-saw buzzards, turning my joints to sawdust
and my nights to wakeful darkness. Is pain a symptom
of insomnia or the other way around? I'll find out.
Tomorrow I enjoy the experience of an epidural
rather than a general anesthetic. I'd rather be asleep
than awake. I hope there'll be drugs and music.

Anyway, I am likely going to be unable to review on Friday. I'll pop in as soon as I can, when I can. Meanwhile, wish me and my surgeon and the OR team well (or however you keep the goodness flowing sweet my way), if you would.

Hey, Champ, good luck with the op. I've heard ACL stuff is rough (the recovery, not the operation--I think the op itself is supposed to be pretty easy). It's the rehab schedule that is killer.

Best wishes to you. Go skate hockey. Soon as you can.

I can't myself, unfortunately, do Friday--I am out o' town for the rest of the week. But, if no one else does it before I get home, I'll do it anyway.

It'd be kinda the late, late show thing. I'll be feeling really groovy (I'm coming back in first class, God bless mileage programs) and, I suppose, could be doing that Stupid Poetry Tricks thing or sumthin'.

God bless, and get better. :rose:
 
I'll take Friday. Also, good luck! You'll be pole-vaulting in no time.

Geezis, my manners.

Thanks sugar butt :p. I can attest to the ACL rehab therapy being tough. I've been there with the right knee. This could be a significant contributing factor to my reluctance.
<childishness> I don't wanna hurt and I don't wanna be on crutches.. :tantrum emote: </childishness>

Okay lady — best of luck to you and the OR team. Get on out there and kick some butt and make the universe right again.

Sugar butt? With some licky smiley thing trailing it?

What is going on up there in Northern AB, hey? That lonely nights thing got something to it? Hockey Night in Canada is not, like, cutting it?


Just get better, sweet, and may Don Cherry bless your pure, sweet soul.

I will be back later, though, to tell you to work that knee. ;)
 
Good luck and good drugs to ya, darlin'. Let's see if we can pull for this knee healing more quickly and easily than the first? It's always possible. Sending mojo your way.

It's that avatar pic.. I heard jim mo had a seriously large johnson with what to rise the mojo with... ermmm.. ok. Thanks. This weekend it was the Grey Cup -- another Canadian symbol of mediocrity in pro sport.

snerk... mojo.

Thanks for the good stuff, doll face. I don't worry about healing rates, it's all the other stuff that goes on with it.

I've learned that valve disease has strong ties to connective tissue disorders. Heart valves and ligaments all form at the same stage of fetal development. Where a bad gene fits so fits the future. It may be written in my big book of genome that I'm blessed with skinny ligaments and clotty blood. Life sucks at times but never so much as dying does.

OK, do you all know something about hospital - brothel relations that I've never been made aware of? Here I was, thinking green jello was going to be the highlight of my stay only to discover I've been missing out on some really good "massage" therapy on past visits...

OK. I changed it for you. That "johnson" stuff was making me feel, well, inadequate but alive. Mixed blessing kind of thing. :)

Hey, just get better, darlin'. While we will miss your poems, we will miss you even more.

You'll be fine, but you'll be in my prayers, anyway. :heart:

That's blue2 isn't it? I really miss how Don's wife kept his coats toned down.. now he's widowed he seems to have no restraint whatsoever.

Best of luck with these things, take care. :rose:
 
Bubbly one, it is most excellent to see you back in here. May your recovery be swift and only mildly annoying, and may the drugs be lovely and fun. Still thinking mojo-filled thoughts toward your healing process.
