What might be making you a tad apprehensive, but might not, as it's too soon to tell

I hope it's just garden variety shitty ankle syndrome. That's why I keep a spare...

Let us know how the scans go, ortho.

I need to be watching more of Louis CK. He rocks.

[BigV]

He is super funny. But. I watched a couple episodes of his regular "show", he has a show, y'know. It was not pleasant. All about how awkward things were as he tried to find a romantic connection after divorce. It was ugly and unfunny.

[Clodfobble]

His show is different from his standup, yes. It's ugly, but the whole point of it is that there is beauty in ugly. One of my favorite episodes is where he is briefly hired as a sitcom writer, and gets fired because he is trying to make a show that is essentially like his actual show you are watching, and the producers would rather bring Bob Saget in deliver cheesy family one-liners instead. The episode where he carries a baby duck around Iraq made me tear up. It was ugly and beautiful.

It's a sad and beautiful world

So, last year my sister went to the doctor. She's been complaining of occasional dips in her blood pressure, dizziness, headaches, weariness or getting extremely tired, and lack of energy. So, the doctor said, let's see if something's wrong with you or it's life getting you down. A week later, my sister came back for blood results. The doctor informed her that she nothing is wrong with her. She said to take vitamins, exercise, and come back in 3 months. Hahahaha.....and yeah, my sister never came back. She thought it'd be a waste of time and money.

Is that the show you mentioned when we were discussing the differences between British and American comedy styles?

The two Js were over here a couple of hours ago and they were raving it. They've got the first couple of series downloaded so J is bringing it round next time they come

The radiologist says the foot issue is a stress fracture. Hooray! I drank a toast to stress fractures last night. Now I'm more confident about the hip pain. Guess that study program won't go to waste after all.

(And no thanks to stupid Arimidex. A fracture after being on it only two months? WTF.)

[DanaC]

You know you've had a bad couple of years if you're cheering for a fractured foot :p

[orthodoc]

I know ... but think how much higher I now get to climb on the happiness scale. I can only go up from here! So I'm toasting the fracture!

Yes, that's the one! Let me know what you think when you see it. I want to confirm whether I know your taste like I think I do. (I also predict that Foot & UT would like it, Griff & Lola would hate it, and Sundae would mostly like it except for the darkest bits...)

[glatt]

Hey Ortho, I'm happy for you that you broke your foot. And I mean that in the nicest possible way!
