hey Karen,
i've had my self out-of-service here ... i hadn't realized yesterday afternoon i'd crashed my inbox on my mail server ... effectively shutting off any e-mail reception ... i knew i had a problem last night, but i didn't know how i caused it until my wife calls me this morning to tell me her sister-in-law called her to say my e-mail's shut down ... because my inbox was full
... ... hold it i got to get a cup of coffee ... just a sec ...... ... that's better ...
... would have been bad enough
... i was wondering why everyone had stopped posting to pbabble? ... HA!
... but as i was, right here, last night, in the midst of posting a ridiculously long and absurd reply to you ... and as i was submitting the post ... i clicked that submit button and noticed that nothing happened and the indicators were indicating non-response and inactivity by my computer ... so i clicked it again .. and again ... and as i wondered about it, i tested the (always faithful before) submit button a few more times ... when i noticed the browser's java script offering me details, like "... operations being processed ...transactions in cue ... " ... and implying to me that something was trying to post ... i panicked ... thought that i had just bombed like 300 of my posts here ... so i clicked the back button .. .. .. quit the browser ... restarted my computer ...
... when i got re-booted i had lost contact with my isp ... ... ... ( !!!!!!!!! )( ! ) ...... until this morning ... now i got everything working again ... and no 300 absurd-o posts, either! ... yeah! ...
... so, where was i ?
... oh, yeah ...our sweetie chicky baby Karen-cita wrote to us this, right cheer:
> Jimbo- You really really needn't apologize...matter of fact the Demerol makes me quite silly. I say things like "deep sleprivation", "chilavry" for chivalry..."ducks" for "bucks", "eyeliner" for "airliner"...
> I'm keeping everyone amused.
> So really, it IS funny. Just don't want to be on it. >i remenber that feeling ...
i am so there for you
... ... "don't want to be on it"
... i ... hear ... you ... !!several times while i was in the hospital i went off my demerol (later, mepergan forte) ... i got to where i wanted to feel my pain just to see if it was as bad as being doped ... after 3 or so weeks of demerol every four hours, day and night, pain wasn't quite that bad ... for a while ... i had this hoffman device which kept reminding me ... but i have never been so depressed in my life when i finally got to go home, and all they would give me was vicodin ... ... here i was overjoyed to escape the hospital ... only to suffer so much worse from my injuires ...
... that and my parents had moved in to take care of me ...> Thanks for the kind words..
>you couldn't be any more welcome . .. .. !
> > fact ... not opinion ...
> Oh my. I blush. Not really, but thanks. >pleasure's mine!
> >
> >5 weeks after my motorcycle accident and surgery ... broken bones ... gave up bikes
>
> Aw, that's a real change of lifestyle huh? That bites. >but not in the way you might imagine ...
... 2 1/2 months bedridden in the hospital ... another 3 months bedridden at home ... 2 more months in a wheelchair ... before a year pasted, back into surgery for a plate in my tibia, a little bone graft ... about a year later i was finally walking, but with crutches and therapy .. ... i'm really fine now ... but that's what changed my lifestyle ... being able to walk again ... i never take it for granted ..... giving up the bike wasn't easy ... giving up the idea of riding again was hard ... but that was more like, just growing up and being responsible ... than it was changing my lifestyle so much ...
... i was (am) blessed ... i know people who will not be getting out of their wheelchairs ... as i have been blessed to do ... shame on me if i ever take walking for granted ...
> >i have your husband's hairline deal too ...
> I actually like it- he's just draggin' me down...I'm not getting carded anymore... :(
> >
> Thanks, J
> Karen... that receding hairline thing
... male pattern baldness
... ... i wouldn't even ignore it, if i were him
... ... is your husband too vain to consider minoxidil?
... ... for your sake !
... ... ... HA!!
... i am so grateful whenever i can get mistaken for like 33 ! ... ... i can almost remember 33 ... ... i must have been 33 in 1984 ... i crashed my motorcycle in 1983 !
... more later when i can remember what i wrote last night ... IF i can remember ! ... HA !
TAKE CARE !!!
~ jimp.s. .... and for a little more drama, i get the "you need to re-confirm your registration here in pBabbelon, before we want to let a weirdo post, if his inbox is going to throw away all of our new post(s) notifications, please" message before i could get this to post ... HA!
... so how's your day been?
