What goes around comes around, man.
I don't remember. Sorry. Even if I did, I'm not sure that's karmic.

DM, how'z your fencer's elbow (the true name of the ailment until "tennis" got so damn popular)?

Improving slowly.
Just got done icing it.

Been having trouble with my cake.
Just got done icing it too.
Okay. I realize that's not funny. Hope the elbow shows improvement soon.
Tomorrow I go in for an ultrasound of my carotids.
This is further testing related to going blind in one eye for three minutes a month or two back.
My blood test came back totally fine. But still, the doc wants to check for plankton buildup (okay, plaque) in the carotids that might be leaching into the bloodstream, capable of clogging tiny capillaries in the eyes, among other things.
If anything's found, they'll send Racquel Welch in there to do some major hip grinds.

Well, that was silly.
Your pancreas must not like you very much. Although, from experience, there are worse things that could happen to you. I have made peace with my body for the moment so I'm not riding the needle. I'm sure it will get harder as I get older. At the moment, I just live my life. I diet and exercise.
You'll be fine.
As a matter of fact, my anger does keep me warm

Best blackballing ever.
Yeah, it's in the genes. Get it? A pun.
Been minding the diet and working on that exercise. I've got my first bottle of lipator now.
Your Herculean Budapest journey inspires me that it's not all over, not quite yet.

1: DM, sorry for the diagnosis, but hope it is not too impactful day-to-day.
2: I suggest all "Onanism" mottos contain the phrase "hands down".
3: Thanks, Le Roi Bob! 54 years old, same day as Sean Connery. Same hairline, too.
4: Just had a quick ER/Hospitalization for blood clots in my lungs. I did manage to get my morning coffee before calling a Lyft to the ER. Coffee first, hospital second.

Bad, Yeti, bad. At least you had your priorities straight about what was going to save you.

You always gotta one-up me, doncha Ivor? First it was fencing where you constantly beat me (except for that one year I was at SJSU and you weren't, and whenever I cheated). Then it was selling swards (I figured if I could make a penny on selling a sward to every person in China, I'd have you beat, and now what? U.S. Olympic gold?!?) And now I get diagnosed with diabetes and you gotta pull some blood-clots-in-lungs Lyft-2-ER? WTH?!?!
srsly, you okay? I'm guessing its a coumadin side effect?
