1.8 Centimeter “Irregularity”
Looks like I’m going back for more tests – a bone scan and a chest scan. They found an “irregularity” on the MRI and can’t rule out a carcinoma. It isn’t likely, but it isn’t impossible either. The area is probably just a nodule of hepatic regeneration; when a liver gets as bad as mine…
Let it rain, let it rain, let it rain!
Hmmm, doesn’t quite have the same ring to it. Fifty-nine degrees, and raining heavily out, with thunderstorms predicted for this afternoon yet. It isn’t exactly Christmas weather here. Good thing I come pre-shrunk. The Socialist is off to the West Coast with the Matrix’s hatch full of wrapped gifts and the front seat full of…
WooHoo! Got a Site Meter!
Adding the meter didn’t turn out to be nearly as straightforward as I thought it would be. I’ve installed site meters before on web sites, and it’s perfectly a perfectly straitforward cut-and-paste job there. What should have been a simple cut-and-paste project here turned into a semi-complicated debug (OK, at least it was semi-complicated for…
They’re Grrrrrreat! (?)
Take the Corporate Mascot Test at Willaston’s Lounge! These freaking tests are getting demoralizing. And I should be completing my final paperwork so I can go the hell home.
Phospho-soda, movies, and KfH.
So, shellybien, you really want to know what Phospho-soda is? That evil concoction is a laxative that works by osmosis – it causes water to be drawn into your colon from your body. It is powerful, it is effective, it is efficient, it is enough to make you wish you were dead about an hour…
Waiting for the Cookies to Cool
Yeah, I know. Nothing for a month, then overwhelming drek. I found this while waiting for my cardamom cookies to cool enough to glaze; I just hope I can embed it on Dear Diary:
FINALLY! what a Beautiful surprise!!
I don’t know what it is, but I can’t wait to find out. It is beautiful. The flowers remind me a bit of our Mexican Bluebell/petunia but white, though the plant is entirely different. I’ll keep my eyes open.

I am told from the good folks at GardenWeb.com that they are Canterbury Bells, the Campanula media, NOT the double-flowered form known as "Cup-and-Saucer". I can find loads of the cup and saucer pics, few of the true Campanula media but here is one, so far –

The white flowers look like yours. You can see the violet cup and saucers as well.
Still hunting for the perfect link…

oops! Sorry, I’m wrong about pulling it out. It’s very pretty flowers you got.
Hugs, ao
Thank goodness it has been identified!! I have been wating with bated breath for what seems like forever to find out! I have never grown canterberry bells so I truly had no clue. I am off to the nursery here in a bit myself to get some datura, moonflower, and morning glory. I am hopelessly behind on the gardening front.
plans?
juz to let you know i am back.

*puts down chair and bullwhip*
Thankfully I don’t have to try to fend off the plant.
Bzzzzztt. WRONG! Thank you for playing.
I guess it’s not a weed after all!
I recommend the Colonial House simply for the interesting contrast in modern to historical contrasts. Some of the behavior of the people on this show just floors me. The way they treat their agreement to follow through with the traditional lifestyle so lightly speaks volumes to me about our whiney society these days….
Oh, I could go on and on…. it’s just a thought provoking show. ALL the "house" series shows have really engaged my interest.
They are beautiful…well worth the wait. Somehow I think the mystery added to their beauty and our enjoyment.

They are beautiful. Well worth the wait and suspence.
Well done, Yarngirl!
And how embarrassing, as I grow Canterbury Bells myself 🙂
It’s nice to see your patience rewarded with such pretty flowers.
Hooray for Yarngirl.
After putting a name to the little dickens I found it easily in my plant books.
AudreyII, what a great name.
Cool plant!
My rosebush, alas, is apparently withering. The leaves are turning yellow. I just don’t have a green thumb!
I loved Little Shop Of Horrors, thats how my cockatoo Seymour got his name. And yes, sometimes we sing the "Suddenly Seymour" song.
The only plant I’ve ever grown has been one from a pinto bean. I swear they grew taller when I put the radio on for them. Still never found out if it grew a pinto bean bush, plant, tree, whatever, lol.
Feed me Seymour!
Cool looking flowers, I might have to put some in next year.

I’m glad now, I didn’t suggest you pull it out and chuck it in the compost! 🙂
The flower looks gorgeous, I have never seen one like that before. And no teeths or nothing ;). My kind of plant.
I’m going to start harassing my local cd store to get me End of The Summer. The title of the song you mentioned is kind of dorky but the lyrics sounded good and I’m in love with Mortal City and want to hear more. I came across Dar’s cover of Starman on-line the other day and really enjoyed it!
Btw, is Little Shop of Horrors a new movie? ‘Cause neither of our film rentals carry it :(. If it’s a movie then I’ll feel better because there’d still be a chance of being able to rent it in the future.
Thanks for your kind words of support regarding B on my Thubten diary.
I thought of you when I saw this on telly… Inga Clendinnen, who is the author of ‘Tiger Eye’ – which is about her experiences as she waited for and finally received a liver transplant.
She is one of the authors ‘on show’ at the Sydney Writers’ Festival, being held this week. I’ve written up more about her on my Seeking diary, or you can read more at this link:

The campenula is gorgeous. Its amazing that something so delicate can withstand a storm. I’m thankful someone let you know it’s name.
(I’m a keen thunderstorm watcher myself, but i don’t have a good vantage point these days)
My daughter has a mission: to get every movie of note on DVD, and Little Shop of Horrors is one of them. I must watch it with her at the weekend. She’s been trying to cheer up her father for a few days.
I hope your migraine DISAPPEARS totally! Can’t have you squinting all over the place, how will you find your way to the P*ps* machine?
Oh dear, I just got the joke about Audrey, and the Little Shop of Horrors. Sorry I’m so slow 🙁
