....and all flame could say when I text her to say I was scared was - "have you told them that you will have lots of spare shoes and your jeans will hang funny"

that is so NOT the calming words of a friend is it

so, anyone else there for sypmathy??

please

((ps, not really legless. I had a mole on my inner right thigh that had gone itchy and 'teardrop' shaped, so the dermatoligist(sp?) doc said it needed to be removed, and siad he wanted it done today .........the anaesthetic is wearing off now tho and my leg feels odd....))

tis feeling strange, and very cold too where the anaesthetic is (well, was, is wearing off now). throbbing lots where the doc kept pressing on it due to the bleeding.

can;t walk on it well either when I need to go toilet, dreading school-run tomorrow

I have lovely memories of going to parties when DP and I lived separately, and then spending Sunday on the sofa with all his housemates watching Friends DVDs. I once had an eye appointment at 2pm one of these Sundays, came back after an hour (with supplies) and none of them had moved.

Haven't seen Supernatural, but I've been watching Dollhouse on Flame's recommendation.

morning.. hows little leggy this morning??

TrillianAstra · 04/06/2009 09:44

It is actually on TV, but on some stupid channel, so I am downloading. I like it lots, but I am a fan of the one Flame refers to as 'wet dog face' (Eliza Dushku)

I like her too. will have to hunt it down then.

BCNS, leg HURTS.

really really HURTS!!!

stings in parts too, assuming that is where the stitches are??. tis going to be a big scar too I think. I described it all to DH last night, and he reckons that because of the size of the mole, and how big the dressing is, plus the fact that I have 6 stitches, he reckons I have a gouge of about 3inches!

Six stitches? Ow, not nice.

Trinity since you're here: have you eaten, taken pills, brushed any teeth yet today?

(I am being Trinity's nagging mum for a bit)

TrinityRhino · 04/06/2009 11:06

I have taken pills and eaten
no showers or brushed teeth

TrillianAstra · 04/06/2009 11:09

Well that's a good start.

How's the bum-sitting psycho? Bored yet? Fancy a bit of trolling?
