When the good news starts, it just keeps going. I got a phone call this morning from the transplant unit. I get to halve my steroid dose (10 mgs SID down to 5 mgs SID) and my antirejection drug gets cut from 8 mgs BID down to 5 mgs BID. These are the two drugs…
Yup, I just interrupted my work so I could take another one of those senseless surveys. This one comes by way of Slipperman, so don’t blame me, blame her. I guess I shouldn’t have picked the carrots.
Labor Day weekend went well, if too quickly. I had a great time with Man-who-uses-forty-foot-ladders-to-hang-birdhouses and The Texan Elf. Pity both don’t live more closely. I made lobsters and corn on the cob for dinner, and both turned out just fine (insert huge sigh of relief here). We went out and played miniature golf afterwards,…
I’d emailed Dr. Fell the day before to ask about the stinging of the steroid cream when I applied it, and he wrote back to say he wanted to speak to me. Then I awoke yesterday morning to find two new eruptions of the rash, one on each thigh, each about half the size of…
I just got word that one of The Socialist’s presents shipped via air from Moscow today. I never bought anything from Moscow before.
I made an eBay purchase on December 23rd. I made a rare exception to my ordinarily hard-and-fast rule of never to buy from anyone with any bad feedback, and purchased from someone who’d had problems historically but seemed to be doing OK now. I’m a realist, and I know there are some psycho-nut cases out…
"On the day Agnes died…" Is this Nadia? The name threw me for a loop when I thought another character was being introduced.
I like it though!

I was going to make the same comment as Alli….
I also enjoyed it! I don’t know that I could have done that. I tend to ramble on and never get to the point. Great job!!!
Megan
I liked it too! It drew me right in.
Damnit, still can’t access your friends only entries :(.
Ah, those ARE a lot of constraints!
AND having to name the characters in meaningful ways…. could set me off into the looney bin.
I ALREADY have a hard time naming in my stories….
But it’s true, writing to parameters DOES make you stretch. Paramiters? Paramaters?
Specific requirements! There!
Hope you get a good grade.
Very nice. Well done. I like the name Nadia. My bf’s father died of Leukemia. Some rare form not discovered until it was much too late to do anything about.
Best of luck with your writing class!
I too liked it, however it does not "feel" you are writing this.
I love your usual style…long, rambling and stops along the way about all the little interesting facts you normally *ramble* about.I love it when you stop us readers in mid sentence to smell the roses.
I was left feeling *I want more*. Does that make sense? Sort of got the bread without the filling.
I echo what Elf said.
