I just sent you a shout at the Pub and you were here. Well hugs anyway.
(Fly, I also wished you a happy belated anniversary somewhere around here...)
CK, pain makes cranky alla time as I'm sure you know. It's just heaping coals on the fire when stoopid sh*t makes itself felt on top of it. The brainless are at the core of most of the working world's ills. I hope this irons itself out to the best of its ability without capsizing on you. You're too pretty to capsize.
Is the flare up keeping an even keel at least, or is it tending toward major?
*hopes not*

Hey JQ. 
You shouted at me in the Pub? Bah? I've only ever posted in the Pub once, and I don't think anyone even noticed... (Or maybe you mean Mavs or HK? I will admit that we're a bit like the Fates -- I don't know if I'm the spinner, the weaver, or the cutter, though -- but we do each have our very own bad days.)
The pain does make me cranky, that's for sure. I'm able to handle up to a 5 (on a scale of 10, with 8 being crying from the pain, 9 being screaming, 10 being shock or passing out) with a clear head most days, but we've definitely surpassed a 5 today. And the pain with breathing is really messing with me.
It's difficult to see which way a flare is moving while I'm in the middle of it. The health journal helps, since I can start to see the long-term patterns. This one didn't start out like my big flares have, with a fever over 100°, so I'm hoping it won't get too bad. But it doesn't seem to be getting better yet, either. Appointment with the new doctor in two days. Here's hoping I'll be able to drive myself. 
Thanks for letting me bitch a bit, guys. It really does help. I luvs you all!

The Fates...might explain a few things. Sure it's not the Furies?

Honestly, I don't know how you do it. My tolerance level for things that don't work like they're supposed to--including my own body, after the panic subsides--is next to nil. I admire you for being able not only to stand it all, but to keep your wit and wits about you, rages notwithstanding. I wouldn't off myself, but can easily picture myself going off in the woods to live by myself and enjoying my misery alone. *Big hugs*

Sure do miss alot when I'm forced to attend a conference with no significance at all to my job.
Hello everyone. Hope the day is very good for everyone.
Not sure how to proceed.
I'm in deep smit. We will be going on our first official date tonight and honestly I'm the slightest little bit fearful of something else happening later tonight.
How's that for insinuated vaugery?

Don't let the maybe interfere with the what's-happening-right-this-instant. Go out, have a good time, forget about later. If there's a later, it will come about of its own accord. If there's not a later, there could still be a later on. Let it happen, Joe. Don't think, just do.

Aye aye sir. I'm more worried about tomorrow. Regardless of what happens tonight it feels like these little steps we've taken are actually huge ones that I never recognized as being so. Meh, not worried at all and REALLY enjoying the moment.

Quote:Hey, I'm quite loopy right now, but I think I get what you're saying. Why are you worried about "later"? I will admit that I'm pretty aggressive when it comes to relationships -- I would rather have a flash-in-the-pan romance that ends in a painful explosion, than months of uncertainty and slow pain -- so I might not be the best person to listen to (plus, did I mention loopy?). But it might be worth it to examine what specifically you're worried about. What's the worse that happens if it comes up and you say yes? The worst if it comes up and you say no? If it doesn't come up at all? Answer those and then see how you feel. *Hugs*
