Only In America ➀
First in a series:


ObKotter: Another kidney calamity, followed by some sorta freakish seizure (in the check-out line at the grocery store, no less). Remind me to tell you about what the paramedics found tucked in my waistband. (><)

Oh, man. I'm really sorry to hear about this. I hope things are better now.

Did they find a sex toy?

Everyone's a comedian.

Well, yes. The obvious answer would be, "A gun", but I didn't think you were connected enough to get away with that and they don't generally let you lj from jail.

See, that's where the story gets interesting. I'll write it up in the coming days. Stay tuned.

Gah. Well I'm glad you're not dead. Was starting to wonder.

I was squirming in my seat to see a post from you. I'm happy you're on your feet again. Stay well.

Is it wrong of me to want a OBL action-figure? Not because I think the guy was okay or anything, just for the sheer WTF-ery of the whole concept.

As for what the paramedics found... a duct-taped gerbil? Tickets to "A high school musical"? A mummified hand with jewelery still attached? A battery-powered sex-toy? An egg-salad sandwich?

In all seriousness, you've really been through the wringer over the past couple of years, haven't you... isn't it about time the universe cut you some slack?!

WB!! WB!! WB!!

Though I wish your post didn't include bodily misbehavior and inconvenient waistband inventory.

This is, unfortunately, characteristic of the country we live in.

Jesus H. Motherfucking Christ on a solar-powered, chrome-plated, rhinestone-studded, fur-trimmed pogo stick with satellite radio and a GPS!!! Do I have to phone you and give that lazy-ass kidney of yours a severe talking-to?

Seriously, man... don't scare us like that! I hope everything's okay now, and continues to get more okay.

P.S. - the way the Tiny Tyrants are voiced sounds an awful lot like "Oooo nooo, Mister Bill!"

I'm with everyone else, holy SHIT, it's good to hear from you. *HUG* Be well, my dear friend.

I'll chime in as well with a "Good to see you around again!" Here's hoping you manage to catch some kind of a break on the medical front from here on out.

SOOOOOOOO glad to see you back on the front lines!! Welcome back, and hope that kidney gets whipped into shape.

How goes the art project?

Glad to see you back, sorry you had to go through some shit, but the quiet times don't make for good stories, do they?
basefinder From: [info]basefinder Date: November 8th, 2011 04:39 am (UTC) (Permalink)
Glad to see you posting again, good sir.

Hopefully it was your enormous penis peeking out at the paramedics....

Great Zot! I'm so sorry you're having a(nother) bad patch. Hope it all starts going better. Like, soonest.

I don't know what you could have had tucked in your waistband that was so unusual, or maybe it was just not something you wanted the paramedics specifically to find? Maybe something tough to resist, but something the medics would have a conniption about, in view of your health. (Like a hip flask? We all have our personal weaknesses. Sweets are mine, not good at all for a diabetic...) But a gun is probably the best guess.

Anyway, you need a good luck infusion. Best wishes are coming your way.

My husband casually announced today "jblaque posted." I haven't been on Livejournal for as long as you have (or longer). I logged on tonight with the sole intention of checking you out, see if you are okay, get the story, etc.

I'm happy to hear you are "not dead," as others so eloquently put it. But, I'm very sad to hear you continue to have (worsening?) issues with your kidneys. My heart also goes out to your family. I'd love to hear, however brief, a little reflection on how your health issues have impacted your spiritual beliefs, your sense of purpose, your idea of time and morality, and your relationship with different people. But, I could be presumptuous and overstepping boundaries by asking.
