One Fine Morning

Egad.

I have a doctor's appointment, and I get good wishes from BRISBANE??

Will you guys buy my records when they finally come out?? :)

Seriously, now.

I began leaking blood where none is supposed to be. Now, I had had surgery in that region a few years ago, so I began to think something had unraveled. Panic.

Then I began consulting with folks who know much better than I do, and learned that such leakages are sometimes caused by infection and not nearly as worrisome as I thought it was.

But my appointment is at 8:45am. So I sleep...until 6:30am. When the phone rings.

It's the hospital I was to report to. The doctor I was to see was not there. The next opening was at 7am. How am I to shower, get dressed and drive in RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC to the hospital in thirty minutes??

So I reschedule to another, closer clinic at a later time. And I go back to sleep.

At 10:45am, I arrive for my appointment. I see my doctor. I get...probed. Yes, THAT probe. And a few minutes later, I get the diagnosis: prostate infection. (Now, if you're wise, you know WHERE the blood was coming from, and WHAT surgery I had three years ago. No, you don't have to post it in the comments...and NO, there's no prize.)

A few blood (and other bodily fluid) samples later, and I'm out of there with a prescription and instructions.

So hopefully in ten days all will be healed and the leak will be plugged.

I do appreciate all your good wishes. And buy my records when they come out.

Thank you for your continued patronage.

A quote from Neal Boortz' website:

Sometime last week I made the following prediction:

As soon as John Mark Karr arrives safely back in The United States his former wife will come up with a photograph taken on Christmas Day of 1996, the day JonBenet Ramsey was found dead in Boulder, Colorado, which will show that John Mark Karr was in either Alabama or Atlanta on that day.

Well ... guess what?

John Mark Karr is now safely back in the United States, and the Atlanta Journal-Constitution is now reporting that family members have found a photograph taken Christmas Day of 1996 showing not Karr, but his three children in Atlanta, Georgia. True, John Mark Karr isn't in the photo, but family members say that Karr never missed being with his kids on Christmas day, and that no family member can remember a Christmas when the children were this age that Karr wasn't there.

This whole thing is unraveling faster than Clinton's "I didn't have sex with that woman" story.

That's MSM for ya.

Be seeing you.

All I can say is OUCH! At least infections are easily fixed. Let's hear it for antibiotics! Whoo-hoo.

glad to hear your asshole is ok. remember me? Imagine Jon whatever her name was at 17. No, wait, imagine Norma Jean at 60. Sometimes it's good when people die young. I'm still sad that Mae West lived so long. I did not need to see an 80 year old woman telling me to come up and see her sometime. Seriously. Love, JJ
