Writing Successes: Well, I'd have to go with NOT the blog there. Going gangbusters over in Amazon country, however.

Music Playing: Empire Strikes Back Soundtrack. Why? Well...why not? Okay, okay. Mike capped a bunch of the original three movies. Can you say "download the universe to my computer" ? I can.

Bizarre Quiz of the Day:

You can always be found reading or on the computer.
People always come to you when they need
information. You don't really care about love
at this point, your only goal is to improve
your mind. After all, knowledge is power!

I know. Where the HECK have I been? Well...it's not all my fault. Mostly, but not all. Blogger made some changes and it's been kind of busy around here when I come to post.

I'll try to nutshell what I can here.

First, shout out to Sal who had her baby on the 4th of August. She's a real beaut, too. Congratulations to both her and Hawk. *waves to Zoe*

Second, I did go on a round of tests and things after my first doctor visit. To sum up: I do not have breast cancer, although I do have some kind of mass that they think is merely an "adenoma" or something like that. The specialist figured he'd probably take it out during the reduction, which I obviously qualify for. So, while not seeing the same doctor I did back in April or May or whatever it was, I will be seeing a guy here in September. About a month from now, in fact. That appointment "SHOULD" give me a date for the reduction.

Third, the stomach thing appears to be lactose intolerance. Although I do get antsy at stores, it's not nearly so bad now that I've stopped eating all dairy products. And if you don't know what it's like to live in 80-plus degree weather without ice cream, you just haven't lived. Plus, everything in the store and at fast food restaurants has cheese on it. Okay, not EVERYthing, but a darn lot of things. Hamburger helper, for one. Cheese this, cheesy that, cheese sauce here. *sigh* I got some pills and that helps during cheese moments. But they're expensive little diggers, so I'm not exactly running out for cheese every day.

Okay, I think that sums up. Now, you lot can quit harping on me to post. *hee* Good to know you all are reading. Keep on bugging me. I'll get around to things.

Until next time, keep your sword sharp and your bow strung! Herete!
