The prognosis is such that this surgery will pre-empt any other problems.  I am actively pushing for a full scan, as well as second opinion follow-up.<\/p>\n<p><font size=\"-2\"><i>Sacco got a bran&#8217; new slack<br \/>\nAnd your baby is handcuffed on the front seat<br \/>\nYou just sit right there, boy and relax<br \/>\n<\/i><\/font><\/p>\n<p>My job is swallowing me whole.

My entire week, aside from a small island, has pretty much been a pressure cooker.  I need to vent some steam, otherwise things are going to end up looking a lot like that scene from <i>Breakfast at Tiffany&#8217;s<\/i>.  You know the movie, those whiny fucks wrote a song about it.  As an amusing aside, my mother, to this day, is terrified to use or be near a pressure cooker as a result of exposure to that movie.<\/p>\n<p><font size=\"-2\"><i><br \/>\nWell they spill out of the Cinema 14<br \/>\nTo that drag bar there on the block<br \/>\nBest live show by far in the whole east coast<br \/>\nWith a bank rolled up in your sock<br \/>\nShe stand right there for your pleasure<br \/>\nHalf Puerto Rican Chinese<br \/>\nYou got to find your baby somebody to measure<br \/>\nI&#8217;m goin&#8217; to get me some of these baby.<br \/>\n<\/i><\/font><\/p>\n<p>I have been writing, or trying to.  I have also played some Worlds of Warcraft.  I am alternating between intense emotional release, and mindless repetitive competition to keep my sanity aloft.  I have not been &#8220;cooking&#8221; but I have been cooking.  My meals have been short, sweet, and simple.  I made Fish and Chips last night that pretty decent.  Red potatoes make good chips, FTR.  I just wish my heart were in it more.  Also, I have missed some IMS recently &#8211; that is not because I hate you, but rather because I left myself logged in to Trillian on my server.<\/p>\n<p><font size=\"-2\"><i><br \/>\nI&#8217;m goin&#8217; down down down<br \/>\nI&#8217;m goin&#8217; down down down<br \/>\nI&#8217;m goin&#8217; down down down<br \/>\nI&#8217;m goin&#8217; down down town<br \/>\n<\/i><\/font> <\/p>\n<p>I am not looking forward to Valentine\u2019s day, at all.
