She does tragedy well.
Yes, she does!
How are you feeling? I've been away for a few weeks... need a break from here every now and again. LOL
Understood! Lol! I'm okay. Still waiting for an official confirmation of a surgery date, and my body is fighting an infection, but I haven't rotted yet! How are you!?
I'm as good as I'm going to get at my age. LOL Is your infection from the original reason they postponed your surgery? I'm not going to try and sound like a meddling old aunt and give you all kinds of unnecessary advice, but I will ask that you keep your spirits up. Feeling good and having a genuine smile on your face goes a long way to help you be healthy. So, do at least one thing you really enjoy everyday, okay? We have had some bad winter storms here and my husband is a tow truck operator. He has been working day and night for weeks. That is why I was away. I can't settle down or be relaxed when he works like that. His work is not difficult, but it can be dangerous. Maybe I worry too much. LOL Honestly, I came back hoping to hear from you. I've been worried about you too. Actually, it was less worry and more hopeful that you had had your surgery and were doing great. I'm sorry that it has still been delayed. My phone shit the bed, but if you have Facebook messenger we could chat there if it is easier for you. I will shoot you a mail and give you the details of how to reach me. I, personally, hate Facebook in general, but the messenger app is handy and I use it all the time. LOL
That works beautifully! My body likes to hijack me, but I have new doctors that I'm not used to yet, so the whole wait and see process is making my prickliness even more prickly, and my saltiness even saltier! I look forward to talking with you more. ♡
Ah, new docs are tough. Trust takes time. Well, feel free to complain to me whenever you need to until you feel safe and comfortable with them. LOL My body has been hijacking me for the past 20+ years. I have fibromyalgia and since they don't know what causes it, curing it is hit or miss. I was addicted to painkillers for 7 years until I just couldn't take it anymore. That was 4 years ago. Now, I take Kratom - it is powdered leaf from the mitriganya speciosa plant ( my spelling is probably wrong) which is a member of the coffee family. It works amazingly well on the pain and doesn't leave me feeling doped up and fuzzy brained. I also meditate and that helps when the pain is really low. I usually say that I have two kinds of pain. Bad days and days I want to die. I haven't had a day where I want to die since I started taking Kratom. So, you could say I'm a big proponent of it. LOL On bad days ( my usual days) I just feel like I have flu body aches. Twenty years of having flu body aches combined with days where I feel like I was hit by a train loaded with full-size, lead elephants will make anyone exhausted and just a bit salty. LOL I try to face it with a smile though, but there are days where my smile looks more like a grimace. Reading is part of my meditation. I've always loved to read and it takes my mind off of the pain. When I am reading, I can forget, even for a few minutes, that every nerve in my body is crying out in pain. What irks me is that there is nothing really "wrong" with me - no injuries or illness - just nerves that misfire and/or get misread by my brain. I have a very high pain threshold. So, I can only imagine what this would feel like to anyone else. That is how I keep perspective. "It could be worse." LOL
I'll read anything set in front of me. As a kid, I read our entire dictionary - it was one of those 4 volume kind with words no one uses anymore (lol) - and our entire encyclopedia set. Gosh, I was a sad and lonely kid! LMAO I was diagnosed with dyslexia in first grade and my teacher at the time was amazing. She taught me tricks to make reading easier and ways to recognize the correct words by their shape and context clues. I did well enough to learn how to speed read even though I had dyslexia! I'm the type that would rather read the book than watch the movie. My version is always better anyway! LOL I'll read from any genre too - outside of manga, that is. Romance, horror, mystery, sci-fi, thriller, military, fantasy, historical, biography, fiction or non-fiction. I'm also fascinated by history. Historical fiction or historical biographies and accounts would probably be a favorite. Though, I can't honestly say I have a set favorite genre. I go through phases. I'll gorge on one genre for a while and then switch to something entirely different. I've even read Twilight, so I am not picky about whether it is well written either! LMAO I'm sure we will have a few books in common that we have read and can discuss.
You're talking my language! Me too.
I'm a voracious reader. Not much I won't read. Dictionaries., encyclopedias, TV Guide, anything will do! Lately, I'm obsessed with stories about AI, androids, humanoids, dolls. I've read some really weird, interesting stuff. The last thing I read that I loved was this weird story of a man who buys a human /black leopard as a companion at a black market auction. The leopard was named Amor and the guy was named Liebe. Interesting premise, fascinating execution but as typical, tons of smut.
Okay, love. ..Gotta go rest my brain. ♡♡
I read that too! Loved It! Go get some sleep. I'll message you tomorrow. Big hugs!
Sounds good! Sleep well yourself! ♡
I liked it, but not until about ten minutes after I finished it and had had a chance to work through all the confusing parts.
SPOILER ALERT>>>>>>>>>>
Seme sleeps with dad, not son. whew! Uke is not dead, just a stupid April fools prank. Another whew! I read this after reading two other manga by this mangaka that really kicked your teeth in with the tragedy, so I was really buying the dead uke. I'm glad it was a prank.
