Hey @Munkus Beaver and @Stale, let me know if you want one of the Steam games I have to give away!
You are the nicest, what games are these?
Update: seems the site of the old drainage tube to drain an interior abscess becam infected itself, causing a subcutaneous abscess to form in the perianal area. Likely both the source of my pain and fever. May lance/dain it, gotta talk to surgeon before I w il know any more.
Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.

So, anyone with the inclination, PM me. I'm putting together a video game care package for Munkus that'll be going out shortly after Xenoblade hits, but I'd be willing to delay it slightly if you had games to add onto it.
I just turned my head and noticed a bug moving on my couch not 6 inches from my face.
a spider. a black widow it's now dead.
God is now sending stormtroopers.

Spiders are spiritual past due notices.

My mother is 49 years old and she's had a pilonidal cyst since she was 15 years old. She's pretty prone to other cysts too but after years of hearing from doctors, "Oh it's cancer." instead of something so immensely minor has really shaped her way of viewing the medical world. She's now planning on getting it removed this fall finally, and she's scared as hell of just dealing with surgery again. She had a hysterectomy, there's a family history of uterine fibroids and she just didn't want to deal with it anymore. They treated her like shit. When she came home she was miserable and spent the majority of her time in bed.
She just had a mammogram done too, as she found a lump. Surprise! Just another cyst.
She gets migraines as well. It used to be worse. I don't know if they were possibly mine or my sister's fault cause we were just dumb kids and we were doing things we didn't know that were only causing her more problems.
I get so incredibly frustrated that she doesn't take my depression seriously. Yes, I'm probably fine now, but I still remember what's it's like in your head when you sit on that fence and feel yourself grow lighter and lighter as you lean over the edge to your death, all the while your parents just tease you constantly about how stupid and lazy you are. I don't believe that I would even be able to discuss it with her without just turning into a screaming sobbing mess.
I'm not going to pretend that what she's gone though compares at all to mine. I rarely get cysts. I don't have back pain and I rarely get just regular headaches. The most painful experience I can remember is my wisdom teeth removal and hornet stings. At the same time I don't know if she thinks depression is just where you feel sad and you're a big baby, or if she knows what it's like. Maybe one day when I'm much older and I've been living away from my family for a long while I'll be able to talk to them about it, understand the kinds of things they went though and tell them what I went though if they don't know already. At this point I don't believe they even care but I would like to try at least one day.
I do hope though my mother gets better. She doesn't need that cyst and she's not getting any younger, though I worry that because she's had it for so long it's going to be a problem. After an experience that she can only describe as hell, and she doesn't exaggerate, I sincerely hope that this time she gets what she needs.
Pilonidals aren't that bad to have removed but yeah flareups are absolutely awful. If you can make sure that she's getting the kind of surgery that has an incredibly low failure/return rate - it'll involve either an offset incision or packing the surgery site with gauze daily until it heals; the basic kind where they just cut you down the center of the tailbone, remove the mass, and stitch you back up (the kind I had!) has something like a 50% failure/return rate and mine came back within 8 months which was a huge bummer. Good luck to her with the surgery and to you with your depression and to everybody else in here with their problems

What's in the packs?

Let me know what kind of games/genres you two like. I'll send you some stuff.
The last time I was down, I played a shit-ton of Guild Wars, but that's not exactly offline. Still, I have a bunch of potential recommendations, but I just need a way tune it.
Shut up Francis. Something about Vietnam. Horseshit.

That sounds like quite the project! I'm sorry I don't live nearer, I really would be happy to lend a hand!
I just have this mental image of you very slowly dragging an individual brick over, the sun crossing the sky from horizon to horizon, dusk settling in as you finally lever it into place and collapse, exhausted, from your efforts.

Dan looking on in abject confusion.
Hey! I am very good at putting things together I'll have you know! And I am stronger than I look, I regularly carry large funeral tributes and heavy bags of compost around.

Your poor boss spending hours every morning carefully doling out compost from normal sized bags into custom made tiny little bags so that you can feel useful when you successfully carry them around.
Rght now all I need is a couple strong backs and someone handy with mortar.
Dude.
DUDE.
I'm not good at many things, but I am extraordinary at both carrying heavy things, and mixing cement. Fly me out and we'll build a pit, a smoking hut, a jacuzzi, a pool house (and the pool to go with it), a 3 car garage, a walk-in humidor, fuckin' anything.

between my 360, ps3, and phone I have plenty.
or, if you have the cash, double hookergram
Every time I try to pick up the bricks or pavers, I end up dropping them and getting dizzy.
yes
I know how it works
I just can't maintain blood pressure while doing it
and remind me how much of a failure I am
But I'm not your dad. That'd be really weird.
i'll be over next month

Another similarity we have.
