switcharoo

apparently i'm getting sick.

while i was sleeping, someone replaced my normal healthy feeling throat with a discount brand sandpaper. let's observe the subject as she struggles with swallowing.

what a perfect time to be ill. i've had 4 days off and nary a sniffle; but now that i go back to work tomorrow for 7 straight days, i feel like crap. puh. i don wanna go ta werrrrrk.
hey god, if you're listening, this would be a good time for ed mcmahon to come to my house. oh and if he could find enough room in the van next to the big check and balloons, i'd also like a milkshake. thanks.

so anyway, things have gotten back to normal around here for the most part, we've completely settled in after the move and are our normal boring selves. other things are popping up here and there to add a bit of colour tho.

the hub finally got in to see the urologist and that little stone they saw in the right kidney at the emergency room? it's really a stone that has grown so large it fills the entire kidney. now, because the hub is a freak of nature, he's got what they call a 'horseshoe' kidney. instead of the two seperate kidneys on either side, it's sort of one big kidney, connected in the centered of his back. normally they do a procedure called a keyhole, where they go in through a little hole in your side and break the stone up before pulling it out. but they can't do that because of his weird ass anatomy. what kind of monster did i marry?
anyway, to make a long story short, he has to have a full blown surgery to remove the stone before the kidney fails completely. it hasn't been scheduled yet and we don't know when it will be. so that's something, isn't it. more exciting than the normal crap i talk about.

but it has worn me out. i must go take a nap. please whoever has my normal healthy throat put it back while i sleep. no questions asked.
