The truth is in ya face when ya hear the British cannons go…

BOOM.

Tomorrow morning I get to see one of the KU dorms get blown up. That'll be fun! I'm taking the whole day off so I've got a five-day weekend, aw yiss. I want to do another day of food prep (if I can get six more meals made for the freezer I'll feel like I'm in good shape for the weeks I won't be doing much cooking) and finish my due South Sekrit Santa art piece and enjoy a couple days of weekend before I head back to my last week of work.

I was already sure I'd made the right decision about the hysterectomy but my body decided to prove in no uncertain terms that removal was the way to go. Either that or it's just throwing a hissy fit.

My last period wrapped up on Wednesday last week, but when we were hanging out with friends Friday night, I started cramping something fierce, to the point that I had to go home early. Since then I've been pretty much having a second period, only about twice as bad as a normal period. I wonder if the extra dark blood and clotting was triggered by the biopsy. It's not fun, whatever it is.

Pre-op consultation with my surgeon is this afternoon. I have a big list of questions for her. Ugh. I just want things to be done at this point.

Really looking forward to working on this dSSS piece.


Today's Tumblr collection is Tuesday, November 24: Hamilton. Heads up! This collection was so large I split it into two. The second part will post tomorrow (Wednesday) at 9am CST.

good heavens! here's hoping the hysterectomy solves what ails you and makes life happier.

Oh sweet!! I hope you enjoy the demolition! :D They demolished a dorm on campus last year, I think, but I didn't get to see it. They did film it so at least I got to see it that way.

Oh man, I hope your body will settle down the hissy fit nonsense!

How many people get to watch a building blow up in person? I AM SO EXCITED.

I hope your surgery will make you feel a million times better.

I'm totally jealous that you get to watch the building blow up!! I think some of my other Kansas friends will be there, too. I mean, who would miss that?

Good luck with the consultation. You always go prepared and ask good questions--go you. I was SO HAPPY never to see blood soaking a favorite outfit EVER AGAIN. Sending good thoughts your way.

I'm gonna do my best to get video of the implosion on my phone.

Just last night I was telling [livejournal.com profile] mckitterick that I was unable to remember/comprehend what it's like to have a pair of panties last more than a month without acquiring some sort of period stains.

Oh MAN. Here's to the final eviction of that damnfussy body part. No more of that nonsense for you!

NGL, that aspect is gonna be really nice.

Boooooo, I have to work tomorrow morning. If you get video, post it!

I hope the doc is able to give you good answers to all your questions.

Sounds like your uterus is making its last stand! I hope you had a good consult and got lots of answers. I hate that you have to go through this. but you will feel so. much. better. in the end.

Have fun at the demo!

First sentence = mte.

And [livejournal.com profile] mckitterick got to meet her at the visit and liked her as much as I do, so now he's more at ease, too. Yay!

I really enjoyed the part of your Hamilton collection I got to peruse before I went to work. :D Hooray for explosions and being in a good prep place!

Yes - THANK YOU for the collection of links and great Hamilton stuff. Looking forward to part 2.

The Tumblr Hamilton love led me to dreaming about Lin-Manuel Miranda last week, we were hanging out.


I saw a reposted video of the dorm implosion, very cool!
