Meh... it was nice seeing the guys having fun, but the vid was to haywire.
Yeah, grown men and women purposely throwing out as many f-bombs as possible is kinda sad and embarrassing IMO.
But it was cool to see Adam wearing a FF/Serenity shirt! heh!

I got tired of the stupid blond going on and on about "Game ON!!! Mutha Frakkers!!!" and quit before I got that far. Now I have to sit through it again.
I know, that bimbo needed to be slapped. Do young guys like that stuff? I was seriously embarrassed for her. I liked that the girl from Heroes didn't actually use the 'f word', and I didn't hear Zack use it either. Nice.

not me...
what was Joel David Moore doing in the mix? he hasn't even guested on either of those shows...
maybe he's buddies with Zachary...
he put him in one of his movies:

I used to work with a woman who would make a sailor blush. She used the f word like some people say 'gosh' or 'darn'. I'm no saint and I've been known to let loose and peel the paint with a few choice words, but that was a bit much.
It just seemed so forced...like they were TRYING really hard to sound hard core. Stupid. I hope they get paid enough to warrant looking like fools.

He is so fun!

That he is and I want to know... did his son give him playing tips *G
heh! I don't know. I wish I'd had my reading glasses with me when he showed me that snapshot of his son! I still don't know if he was the little 'street urchin' on the set that day!

Don't ya just hate this getting old business :-\ I would imagine his kids are striking, with such good genes... and I bet smart : )
Yep. I've only seen one pic of his wife, but I'd read she was a Playboy Bunny...don't know if that's true or not.

How are you doing? Thinking some positive thoughts for you.
I've been busy all day. I cooked a pot of bean and hammocks, and just showed Jessi how to make her favorite meatballs. I made her some cookies and some sugar free ones for Tom.
I'm doing laundry, dishes are still waiting. Jessi is doing all the heavy/hard to do stuff for me and running my errands.
*well, right now we are both taking a break while the meatballs finish cooking.*
I can't have anything to eat or drink after midnite...so I'm gonna try to get to bed early tonight (after I eat as last as I can!).
I don't know if I'll have time to log on in the morning...so I'll say good night and talk to you soon.
Thanks for keeping me in prayer.

Your 'short bits' must be powerful stuff! I'm home, alive, doing well. Pain is fairly bad when the meds wear off...and some of the owies are so different that what I experienced before surgery that it takes me by surprise. But improvement already felt and seen in my hands a bit. Yay.
Off to does myself with the anti-spasm stuff...I keep getting a feeling like a very angry/painful hiccup in my throat/chest area. Not good. Meds help.
ttyl!
*hugs*
And THANK YOU!!

You will tell the docs about that hiccup, won't you? Now is the time to be extremely aggressive with your docs.
You are welcome... I was worried and the prayers helped me too.
The hiccup is the 'spasm' they have given me meds (valium) for. I don't remember it last time, or maybe it was just part of the overall pain and since they didn't give me meds for it, I don't remember it. Everyone is saying I'm doing better this go 'round. I don't recall being on all the post surgery meds, so I guess they've improved their process.
Mostly now I'm doing the odd emotional stuff...crying for no reason and all that. My littlest cat, who has adopted me as her 'momma' snuggled up to my neck, and even though she couldn't get to my hair and skin (cuz of the neck brace) still cuddled there purring to her heart's content. Got me bawlin' like a baby. Tom was confused to say the least. Kept asking 'why?'...'what can I do'...poor guy. Of course it passes as soon as it comes on. I was grinning through tears soon and sent him off to bed assured that I'd be okay.

It's the steroid... tell Tom to be glad that you are crying and not yelling : ) Sounds like they are taking good care of you.
Yeah, Jess and I did a silly back and forth bit 'bout 'roid rage' and how I'd run him off the road if I was driving...which had us debating on if 'roid rage' while driving was 'road' or 'roid' rage....so, it's not all tears and whimpering. ::)

I'm down to just the one pill this morning and the one tonight, then just one more tomorrow night. Trouble is, I notice a marked difference in the way my throat, and into my chest feels. They said it was to keep the swelling down, so I wouldn't have trouble breathing. I can feel the difference. I get an almost light headed feeling now, so I think there is some swelling there, now that the dosage as dropped back. I'm going to go do my breathing treatment (that little plastic thing they give you to work your lungs), maybe that will help. I'm also up and around more today so that might be it too.
I feel a zillion times better in one way...I got to wash my hair! I'm so glad I cut it shorter, it was fast and over with in a few minutes it but it made a world of difference in how I felt. heh. I still have that horrid adhesive stuck on my throat/chin/chest. Someone needs to invent something to take that off sensitive skin/areas.

Maybe your lungs froze up a bit & you aren't getting as much oxygen... is the device the one where you have to get the plastic ball to rise?
How short did you cut your hair? Congrats on being able to finally wash your hair... I can only make it 2 days before I go wacko.
Adhesive... I think there is a spray which dissolves the glue but I can't remember the name. I am getting together with some co-workers tomorrow, so I will quiz them.
Today is even worse in the ability to swallow and the feeling of airway constriction. Not scary or dangerous, but last night when I took my pill it just didn't want to go down, and water actually came up out my nose! I didn't choke, but I felt like if I'd inhaled at the wrong moment, I would have. I'm actually feeling what I imagine someone who was choked out would feel like. Sore/bruised feeling all around my throat/neck, like someone grabbed me with both hands and squeezed. I guess the steroid was keeping the swelling down on the inside and out in that area. Now, of course I did venture to town with Jessi yesterday too...and fell asleep sitting up without my head being propped up and did the 'fall asleep and nod awake' so I may have made things worse. But since I woke up with that feeling yesterday, I probably just worsened what was already there.
I don't know if I should call the doc or not (being the weekend), since I'm not sure he'd even want to put me back on the steriods. They were that pack that cuts down on the amount daily till finally it's just the one pill (as of yesterday morning). It is very painful to swallow/drink/eat now...and the fear of choking on food and pills makes things scary. If I had someone to drive me over to my regular doc, I'd just do a walk in and ask her what she thinks. I hate calling the 'exchange' for the surgeon.
I need to wash my hair again, the trouble with it being shorter (just at my shoulders) is that it's still oily as heck (since I'm not using permanent hair dye, it's not all 'dry'), so I'm going to wait to see how the hot water on the back of my neck makes it feel. Unfortunately the front is what is hurting the most, and it's not supposed to get 'soaked' when I shower.
I noticed one positive effect that I really hope lasts (but is probably just due to temporary swelling)...my lose neck skin is fairly tight under my chin/front of throat area! lol. Now if they'd just taken a little nip/tuck at m temples and given me a mini-face lift I'd be all kindsa happy! Also have that 'sunken eye socket' look that is preferable to the lose hanging eyelid thing I was doing. Heck, if I'm gonna look sick/tired/haggard, it may as well be something that looks YOUNGER, right? hehe.
My nasty bruises on my hands/arms are finally fading a bit. Darn IV inept nurses. I look like I got into a major fight...Jessi said it looks like I probably won too...with all the bruises on my hands and not my face! heh.
Okay, off to get into my nest and watch a movie. I found I can not watch tv at night in bed. I fall asleep before it's even begun. That's why I fell asleep sitting up too high and didn't have my mouth guard in, and my head bobbed and hurt my neck. :(
If Jeremy hadn't called me late last night I'd probably be in alot worse pain today. Okay, swallowing NOTHING feels like I'm trying to gulp a jagged rock...I think a call to the doc is in order. dangit. :'(
Call the doctor!!

did and done.
He's going to call in another round of the steroids. He said it's not unusual with the fact that this was a repeat surgery on the next down disc. Soft tissue swelling is to be expected, and that is why I'm feeling like I've been choked out. Even hurting on the BACK of my neck. He told me crush my pills and soft diet today, and pick up meds which he's having called in ASAP. I might should have called last night...Walgreens is 24/7 and all docs are on call. I'm just glad I actually got my own surgeon on the phone and not another 'on call' doc.
Biggest problem now? No one to go pick up said meds. Tom is doing training with the Crisis Resolution Team, Jessi's in LA, and Gingi is somewhere in the the flyover states on her way to DC. *eep* Too bad Walgreens doesn't deliver.
hehe...there's a Me-n-Ed's across the street, too bad I couldn't get them to do me a two-fer. mmmmmmmmmmm...pizza (not exactly a soft diet though, huh?).

Thank goodness! I was worried. My husband always tries to tough out things he shouldn't and tells me
everything is fine when it isn't, by the time he calls the doctor not only am I mad at him but so is the doctor.
Are you sure they won't deliver? They do up here to some places. Do you have a friend or neighbor that could
get them for you? You should start them soon to decrease that swelling.
I found out that Walgreens WILL deliver if you give them enough notice to have some available. But I was lucky, Tom was able to take a break and run down for me. The doc must have actually called that Rx in the second he hung up the phone with me, cuz they were already working on it and had it ready within 1/2 hour of the first phone call! Wow.
I took the dose, and did not realize how dopey those two little nasty tasting pills make me. Staggered off to bed and slept till just about 20 minutes ago. Breathing much more freely and swallowing doesn't hurt, although I can still feel the expected sore muscle feeling. Yay.
Tom's home now, so we are going to watch another ep of Leverage.

Yay is right. You never can take a chance on throat swelling because you never know if it will completely
close up. I am allergic to all melons and when I was younger I used to love cantaloupe and watermelons
but everytime I would eat them I would start taking deep breaths and kind of hyperventilate. It used to
be mild and would fade shortly so I never paid much attention to it until I got older and had a really bad
reaction one time where I was really huffing and puffing. Finally read up on it and found that I am allergic
to them and what is happening is my throat is swelling closed. The report said that it could be very dangerous
and people that have this allergy should stay as far away as they can from them since they could never be
sure when a bad attack would happen. My youngest daughter has the same thing only hers includes bananas
too. What's even worse I mentioned this to an allergist doctor once and he had never heard of it! I had to
find out on my own that there was such a thing.
Yeah, it got worrisome last night when the darn pill that I'd had no trouble swallowing the last few days just did not want to go down. Actually felt like it was stuck and when I did a forceful exhale, water came out my nose! I calmly got up out of bed and got a cup of water (I'd used a water bottle when I first tried to take the med), and took a larger gulp of water. I had to take about 3 more full sips to get it to feel like it was going down. I decided right then that I'd not take any more meds till morning, and when I woke up I could really feel that odd swollen on the inside feeling. It's amazing how well these meds work. I'm due for the next dose, but they sure make me groggy...darn...I wanted to watch tv, but I like breathing better, so I guess my decision is made, huh? heh.
It really should not have surprised me that I'd do this though, I was already having trouble swallowing BEFORE surgery, cuz those were the nerves that were impinged. Hopefully it all comes back, and I don't have to keep taking meds too long.
