The Hobbit Hole XXXVI - O! Water cold we may pour at need...

[Corin Stormhands]

Well, it ain't as bad as it could have been. But I could've gotten through the weekend without it.

[Corin Stormhands]

In other newz, Sam patiently waits fer the nayber to appear out her back door. She saves treats for him, so some days he just goes out and sits and stares. When she's there, we'll hear her husband yell "Linda, your boyfriend is here..."

But alas, no snax today...

Nice snaig.

Sam looks like he could miss a few snacks. :-P

[Corin Stormhands]

You should have seen him before he lost weight...

[Corin Stormhands]

Well, Mary Poppins ain’t here and that stuff ain’t going back into theshed by itself...

[HairOfTheDog]

Weak trees?

Sam is looking a bit erm.... Hobbitish. :~)

[2Jedismom]

Hey guess what! I have a serpiginous lesion in my left inferior colliculus!

[HairOfTheDog]

Hmmm... I have a pony and a little black kitten.

So what does that mean, anyway?

[2Jedismom]

Well, there's “something” in that area of my brain...a snake-like lesion. It's in the hearing part of the brain, but just under the visual part.

I've just got the report...don't know much at this point. The doctor will go over it with me.

It came with a recommendation to follow-up with more tests.

It may be old...it may be from back when I lost my hearing for all I know. Anyway, I'm not worrying about it right now. I just hope it explains why I've lost so much vision on my right side. It would stand to reason, being on the left...

[HairOfTheDog]

Huh - well jeepers. Keep us posted!

[2Jedismom]

I knew something was up. When I went in for the MRI and MRA, they told me it was without contrast (meaning they weren’t going to inject a dye into my veins for this test.)

So they did the test and then the radiology tech came back in and said they changed their minds...they were going to inject the dye. I asked why and he said “Well, we *might* have seen something on the first test.”

So they injected me and did the test again.

Dang, 2J! Glad the docs didn’t leave you hanging or anything /s. How does this figure into your high blood pressure? Or does it? LSA

[Corin Stormhands]

Dry and old trees. I need about $10,000 to just have 'em all taken down.

And true, Sam's never missed second breakfast if he could help it (but seriesly, he's lost some weight in the last year).

[Overtaxed]

I need about $10,000 to just have 'em all taken down.

Or a good hurricane.

[darkangel82]

We had two “good hurricanes” here in 2004 and 05. Never want to see another one again.

[Corin Stormhands]

Eeek...there’s not a tree out there that wouldn’t hit ~somebody’s~ house...

[Corin Stormhands]

Never want to see another one again.

So like then, when are you moving?

[darkangel82]

As soon as I can find somewhere else to go.
