HEY THERE, HO THERE...AND WELCOME TO MISFIT ISLAND!!
I want to send a special shout out...HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!! to my MN, double-trouble from another mother...Jack and Snake. Miss seeing you two knuckleheads in the air
I also want to share why drinking a lot of water and staying "regular" is important, in case you face it later in life. I was supposed to have my appointment today, but after wise words from Comet and BWare (plus the fact I couldn't wait this long), I opted to have my appointment this past Friday with Dr Shih, a female doctor with small fingers

(Got lucky on the latter as I could've drawn Ingrid form East Germany with my luck). After going through blood pressure check and being led to the examination room to disrobe (might be my lucky day!

), I sat and waited for the doctor.
Unfortunately, I waited awhile and a man with too much time, silence, and his own thoughts, left alone in THIS room, began to strike fear into my heart

. When I got tired of waiting, I noticed the trays with shiny instruments of torture lying upon them, which I could not see everything, as most were covered with a towel. Do I dare look?

Thoughts of the final scene in Braveheart came to mind, so I quickly dismissed my curiosity. My attention then turned to a device that was sitting in some sort of green liquid and, at first glance, it reminded me of a tool that the Predator would use. I am not the size of Arnold Schwarzenegger so I if it caused him to wince, it would surely cause me to scream like a little girl
The doctor finally showed up and I was hoping for some comforting words. At first glance, she might have looked like a small Lucy Liu (nice) and was feeling better that this might be in my favor. Not many words were spoken and when I realized I was being abducted by aliens, I was informed I didn't have just one external, but a oouple of internal ones that were high-fiving each other

Once the procedure was over, the doctor came around to talk to me about what I might experience and other things.
I say "other things" and that she "might have" looked like Lucy Liu, because after she was done, my mind went completely blank and I think it withdrew into a small, bubble of sub-consciousness. Ive heard of the drink "mind eraser", but this took it to a new level.
I now have a new found respect for inanimate objects, like a Christmas stocking for a child with AD&D on Christmas morning, a sock that has to be turned inside out after its washed, and mutton while it is being prepared

These things and other concepts will make me cringe for the rest of my life
MISFIT STRONG. MISFITS UNITED. THIS MISFIT SAYS DONT EVER WAIT TOO LONG AND MAKE SURE YOU DRINK LOTS OF WATER. Who knows, the next story could be yours

AHAHAHAHA - mending and getting better! Brain is back to normal...finally and if possible. Sat down for the first time since Friday today. Ready to fly again. WOO HOO!
