5 Thoughts make a Post:
1. Doctor visit good/bad. Healing good, keep it up. Yay. How long? Until done. Um...no, really. Wound closure in 6-8 weeks, estimated, perhaps, don't stress yourself. Emotions yo-yo...
2. If pain, take pain drugs, elevate leg, don't worry too much if it's less than 3 on the 10 scale. OK.
3. Must go eat in San Carlos. The Refuge, a Belgian Beer (with correct glasses) and pastrami and charcuterie place (http://refugesc.com/home.html) and the English Rose. Both on Laurel. What else does Laurel St. have?
4. Room fail for IWOM; when I said throw stuff in backyard, she was too polite. I meant everything; appliances too! My fault, she fixed it. Ah well, better to be closer to Cody, and we'll work it all out. Yay for IWOM and LCB (Laina's Cute Boy, or eLena's Count Boyish).
5. SCA-Foo: ??? Well, if I was going to Crown (going to wedding instead) I'd serve meatloaf on toothpicks, probably flambe', for the flames spinning about a request. While I recognize the underlying principle issue, I remember who is issuing the request/statement/whatever, who are bad, historically, at communicating intentions unless you talk directly to them. While I recognize an issue, and a metaissue that we're continually making it harder to play our game through overfamiliarity (directions that assume you've been there, systems that assume you know how they work), raising the bar (Period pavilion and Food for 40) and dealing with "Eric" mores and culture without instruction, and lack of entry ways into our game unless you hook up with a gregarious peer and/or spend years figuring it out, well, it's a big issue. But I'm more excited by my own joys and rebirths in the SCA as much as getting to COOK WITH CRYSTAL and to DO PAS WITH JANOS AND ETAINE the next weekend at Coronet.
Still, some meatloaf, some bamboo skewers soaked in spiced vinegar (or rosemary twigs), a lazy susan made of metal, bacon vodka with some Everclear spiked in (or just baconed/barbeque everclear.) W00T! Flaming meatloaf spinning! Political statement AND tasty snack food!
6. Teaching or Tech. Tech Teaching? Teen Tech Teaching? Tutoring, teaching, teens engineering and Technology? Or just playing with words, words, words.
7. Mmmm. Bacon. Explosion! Ate at "The Kitchen Table" in Mt. View on Monday, they have Lamb Bacon, so you can have a kosher BLT. (Shades of "Princess Bride"). Totally worth it.
8. While I'm at it...Tomatoes. Strawberries. Summer fruity goodness.

Glad the healing is moving apace. Sad it's not the pace you'd prefer, but forward movement is still good.
Lamb bacon? Uh...yum.

1. I want to take you up on the offer of tomatoes and basil. My tomatoes aren't ripe yet, and I had Critical Basil Fail this year. I'd be happy to trade for cucumbers.
2. Yay for healing!! Please, let it take as long as it takes. Love your body, and it will love you back. (I'm working on this one myself.)
3. I have a fab recipe for Asian-flavored gluten-free meatloaf. Would probably work well on toothpicks. Just sayin'.
4. Just a thought: ever wanted to do something entirely other than teaching or tech? Now might be a good time to explore such things.
No worries.
4. Generally, I think, I do. Tech has the money, teaching has the heart rewards, ministry also suits, and I enjoy tending bar...but the last two generally don't have health insurance. Oh, and I'm a good tour guide. But tech has toys, and teaching has "Aha!".
