Dept. of Stupidity

[kaffy_r]

I'm Not Kidding. Stupidity.

I'm listening to MSNBC's coverage of the South Carolina GOP primary, and after listening to interviews with said South Carolina primacy GOP voters, I am reminded yet again, that people who are determined to be stupid, usually triumph in that effort.

Jesus wept. 

(On the other hand, my longest back spasm episode EVAR, appears to have ended. I can sit at my desk again, w00t!!1! I still have my new neck, shoulder and left arm pain, but I can deal with that, at least during the day. Another w00t!!1! )

Still. Jesus fucking wept.

I'm so sorry, but this was the first thing to spring to mind...



(Sidebar: If you have not watched Community, put it on the list.)

Seriously though: SO happy that you are better, at least in one area. <3

I've heard good things about Community, but never got around to watching it, although I'm familiar with some of the memes that it generated. This one is wonderful. May I make use of it?

I got the preliminary MRI results, which are, of course, in medicalese, but from what I can gather - and I'll have the benefit of my pain doc on the 1st - it appears a number of my upper spinal discs are screwed. We'll see how much they're screwed, and what to do about that.

And thank you; I, too, am happy about being much better.

It is a DELIGHTFUL show in every way. It switches genres continually and very deliberately. It's difficult to describe, but you should watch. It will cheer you. The characters are ♥ ♥ ♥

For sure. I just grabbed it off t'internet. :)

I hope they can be... screwed back together right? (I'm trying to aim for a clever pun, but fear that I am missing.)

The problem with internet friends is that they are so FAR AWAY and you can't go see them and bring them cookies.

And today, of all days, I definitely need cheering.

My pain doc's preliminary message seems to indicate he thinks going for PT should happen first, and if that doesn't work, I'll need to get shots. Since I've tried to get an appointment with my lovely PT lady quickly, and can't get to her until April, (and trying to get another PT person doesn't provide a date any sooner), I think I'm going to tell him that I'm in some now-constant neck/shoulder/arm pain, and I'd like consideration given to providing the shot first. And don't worry, I love all attempts at puns!

I know, right? It doesn't matter; you are sweet.
