In other words, it’s letting me know it’s there, but not exactly going anywhere.bluzdudehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05991272670722362652noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-329507352453931374.post-88295325417984791922013-04-11T11:35:42.405-04:002013-04-11T11:35:42.405-04:00See what happens when I'm away from the blogs ...See what happens when I'm away from the blogs for a few days?<br /><br />Nice.

Although, I didn't get any good drugs, so maybe we're even? ;)<br /><br />I had no idea you were recuperating when I emailed you this past weekend. Sorry about that. But sounds like you were at least up and about by Sunday when you went to the game. Glad you are feeling better. And there is absolutely nothing wrong with writing your next post in your head during a crazy experience. I do it all the freaking time. What do you think I was plotting half the time I was in Disney? Why else would I take pictures of a dancing penis? ;)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-329507352453931374.post-19233685220404819592013-04-09T14:04:06.608-04:002013-04-09T14:04:06.608-04:00Hospitals often are freezing, the temp being okay ...Hospitals often are freezing, the temp being okay for the staff but not so much for the patients. Anyway, your Google search turned appendicitis even though the pain was on the wrong side.

I read an amazing article the other day about the guy who played the alien and how he was housed in a different hotel than the rest of the cast to increase his sense of "otherness" and how he went back to Africa after the filming and killed himself.
