Queen of Rambles

I think someone has tied lead weights to my eyelids. I can barely keep my poor little peepers open but I can’t quite sleep yet either. Why is that? I have been having quite a boring day. Lots of pain, as usual, so I didn’t even go swimming. No water aerobics yesterday. Probably nothing tomorrow. [...]

My plan has failed. I still have a gall bladder. I thought it was a good plan. Eat stuff that I knew would make me sick so I could present as a terrible case at the ER and they would be forced to do the surgery. Nope. No can do. The doctor was this young [...]

I was under the impression that nothing about Sweden could shock me any more. High taxes? It’s a given. Cheap day care? Grand. No brown sugar? They don’t know what they’re missing. Lots of red Volvos? Kiruna is full of communist Swedes. And then it happened. I innocently went to the store with the intention [...]

Or at least pseudo-good news. Mike talked to the doctor this morning and he is writing me a referral to the surgical team so now I will get my surgery! The only problem? It could take months. Bah humbug. I don’t have months. The doctor said I should just go to the ER every time [...]

Super Sock Man! I swear Mike’s a super hero. Only he doesn’t save dogs from burning buildings or put crotchety old women in trees where they will stop annoying the world. Instead, he makes sure he always has matching socks. I don’t know if he’s magical or if his socks or magical, but I know [...]

Kisha mentioned that long letter weird thing that means “write a novel in the month of november” a few days ago and I have been stewing on it ever since. I want to be a writer but I simply don’t write. Unless you count the daily 1000 words I spew forth in my lovely little [...]

I really know how to party down on a Saturday night. After a fun filled evening of Mexican food (of which I ate very little), I spent two hours in the ER. Fun! At least it wasn’t from my poisonous cake. When Annica tasted my Mexican chocolate cake she immediately freaked out and thought I [...]

I wonder if he got whapped for this? He told his family that I was home sick with nasea and that the doctor had looked in my tummy and found a cute little. . . . bunch of gallstones. Apparently his sister-in-law got really excited for a few seconds. It’s a good thing he didn’t [...]

I’m exhausted. The funny thing about me is that I’m incredibly lazy until I’m not. When I’m not I’m really, really not so I wear myself out doing all sorts of crazy things like organizing the cupboards and cleaning out the drains. Tonight it wasn’t so crazy, but I managed to cook a roast, make [...]
