Ok so it appears that having a great deal of time off (a week in my case) and having to basically sit still and recover (from surgery on my back) leaves me doing two things...first reading a lot of fanfic, second buying stuff I might not otherwise indulge in. In the latter case it was the Marvel Ultimate Blu-ray set and you can't buy that without buying the player on which the discs can be played, right?

It's a good thing I don't take more time off, it really is.

The other thing I've done a lot of recently is watching classic movies. Wednesday was Rita Hayworth day, yesterday Akira Kurosawa and today Lionel Barrymore. I am reminded that "You Can't Take it With You" is far and away my favorite Capra film. Far. And. Away. I am also reminded I should really own it. Possibly on Blu-ray...

And I get accused of spending money wantonly? ;)

It sounds like The Economy would appreciate you taking more time off. Or Paul Ryan, at least, would.

That's a very effective argument for me to stop buying shit right there. I do nothing for Paul Ryan's pleasure.

Surgery on the whatsit? OUCH! What the heck happened?

One of my moles that had previously been removed a while back returned so the dermatologist removed a great deal more skin to try and get rid of it permanently this time. I get my stitches out next week, thank god. Oh and I'm apparently allergic to Neosporin now, so yay...

Oh, you poor rhing! I trust you've found an alternative you aren't allergic to?

And I hope you've got something decent for pain too. Like naked pictures of Benedict Cumberbatch?

I can use Vaseline instead, that seems to be doing the trick. The only thing that actually hurts now is the adhesive on the bandages. I'm allergic to that too of course.

Ah, so you clearly need Mr. Cumberbatch to come over and hold those in place for you so you don't need the adhesive ones....
