.@thelindywest I am starting to wonder if 'it's 2013' means what we think it means.

The surgeon biopsies the stuff he took out of my lesion. Showed me the report when I saw him today.
Other than the drill bit and some necrotic tissue killed by whatever infection that was, there was a laundry list of miscellaneous findings. Amounted to an old slipper, three playing cards and a 1975 copper penny. - Mary B: #TeamMonique
Leftover food bits that apparently got stuck in a crevice of my gums back way behind all my teeth, at the jaw joint. But I thought it was funnier my way. ;-) - Mary B: #TeamMonique
Did they really find a drill bit though? - Headless Gnad Kicker
Any Mercury dimes? :) - Spidra Webster
Yeah. That was on the panoramic x-ray they took last Tuesday. He was surprised he got it out ... It had broken off during the extraction in February. - Mary B: #TeamMonique
moon landing dollar? - Joe Silence
Part of a bike tire. ;-) - Mary B: #TeamMonique
God, I'm glad they got that all out of there. That must have hurt like a mother huncher. - Spidra Webster
Daaaaannnng! - Russian Space Lizard
That's hardcore! - Headless Gnad Kicker
I don't suppose they found an ice-hockey player Lego minifig? Josiah can't find it anywhere... - Headless Gnad Kicker

#imarealgeekcuz I'm nursing a migraine and listening to @ShopTalkShow. 2 days before I turn 53. :-D
Oooh, I hope your migraine goes away soon! - Spidra Webster
May 53 be the most wonderful year yet! I am at the tail end of this age, it has been easier than other years. - Janet:#TeamMonique
Im looking forward to it. I've had some fun learning new skills the last couple years. I'd like to get back to making some actual money - most of what I do for Frontenac is in trade for my tennis, and I keep hearing that folks can make actual money for web development, video and marketing/branding. I used to make plenty. - Mary B: #TeamMonique

Finished The Boron Letters by Gary & Bond Halbert. First read, anyway. Important stuff. http://amzn.to/XNulEg
Followup with oral surgeon next Mon at 3pm. At that hour in 1990, @sarahmoomaw was 2hrs old and I was eating my first burger as a mother.
Twitter is BACK! Thanks, whoever made it happen!

I need to prep postcards for the mail. I want to play with Genesis 2.0 and html5.
After dinner. - Mary B: #TeamMonique
Finally had the surgery around 7 tonight. I can already open my mouth twice as far as yeaterday, and the Percocet is handling the post-op pain.
They're keeping me overnight just cuz - I'll go home when I wake up in the morning. - Mary B: #TeamMonique
Sleep tight and recover well. - Anika
Yay!!! - Spidra Webster
Hope you have a good night and feel good tomorrow :) - WoH: Professor MOTHRA
Well, it's a damn good thing they kept me. I've been throwing up for most of the last hour, despite a shot of nausea med around 3. Can't even keep 7up down. - Mary B: #TeamMonique from iPhone
:( Hope you can get past this. There is always Compazine suppositories if all else fails. - Janet:#TeamMonique
Hope things settle down quickly so you can focus on recovery, and get back something resembling normalcy. - Jkram|ɯɐɹʞſ
How are you doing now, Mary? - WoH: Professor MOTHRA
Better. Got the suppository and it seems to have worked - slept three hours after my last comment.they woke me up at 9:30 for pills, and for good measure, i also let them give me another shot of the IV stuff. Jello, pills and some Gatorade are staying down. - Mary B: #TeamMonique
This is tmi, but when I had a horrible kidney infection, I loved those suppositories. If you're talking the anti-nauseua ones. - Running Slow
It did the trick. ;-) - Mary B: #TeamMonique
Get well soon! - esther
I don't think the anesthesia made me sick Thurs morning. I got sick again today, and it's been 48 hours. - Mary B: #TeamMonique from iPhone
I think the culprit both times was taking amoxicillin on an empty stomach. The barfing started 2-3 hours after that both times. So, okay already. I'll take it with food. - Mary B: #TeamMonique from iPhone
Hope you'll feel better soon, Mary. - Stephan Planken from iPhone
What surgery did you have? Hope your stomach settles soon, like you need that on top of recovery! xoxox - Headless Gnad Kicker
I hope you're on the mend soon. *hugs* - Tamara J.
Oh yes. That's been my experience, too. I get nauseous if I take anti-biotics on an empty stomach. Definitely eat a little before taking. - Spidra Webster
^^ Oral doxycycline stays in my system about 90 seconds before spewing back to atmosphere. Must take all antibiotics on over full stomach or else bad things happen. - Janet:#TeamMonique
I think I have now joined your tribe, Janet. - Mary B: #TeamMonique
I won't pop a modal in your face before you've read two sentences (on my sites). Now, how bout letting me read in peace on yours? Deal?
The absolute worst is when those don't resize for smartphone screens, but they do re-"center", so _you can never click the close button_. - Andrew C (✓)
"pop a modal"? Dorian? Phrygian? Mixolydian? - Joe Silence
Oh Andrew, inorite? - Mary B: #TeamMonique
Ah, Joe.<3. You're making me feel like a real geek. Those annoying lightboxes we're supposed to think are somehow better than old-fashioned popups, because they're slightly prettier and generally use jquery - which does mean a poseur like moi is prolly gonna use a plugin instead of writing my own - but wants us to subscribe to the newsletter before we've read the article. Gah! - Mary B: #TeamMonique
Happy Father's Day, dads!
Shoutout to Jonathan Hardesty -new dad - and Scott Nyce, about-to-be dad! - Mary B: #TeamMonique

Home! :-) With a migraine. :-(
Ooof. Hope that clears out soon :( - Jennifer Dittrich
I've had stuff. Hope it works. - Mary B: #TeamMonique from iPhone
I hope it works, too. I'm glad you were well enough to discharge. - Spidra Webster
Me too. My diaphragm is still sore from all the heaving. - Mary B: #TeamMonique
