Mom update

Mom is bleeding again, so they're not going to wait for Monday for her surgery. They're giving her a transfusion now, and her surgery is at 1pm today. I'll get to San Diego before she's out of surgery, and I'll post updates if and when I can. Thanks, everyone, for your kind words and love.

Mom's the kind of person who would love to know people are praying for her, so if you're the praying sort, that would be sweet.

[Edit: Her name is Joan Vannoy -- "Mom" is just a cutesy nickname we gave her early on.]

Some joy

1) Here's stuff with my "joy" tag to counteract some of the gloominess going on here today.

2) someotherguy is a bastard. He's turned my "I feel fantastic" earworm into "I feel craptastic" and then "I feel asstastic". Bastard. :-)

3) I meant to blog this yesterday. Conversation between me and someotherguy in the car.

"I love you so."

"I love *you* so."

"I love you. So?"

"I love you. So far."

"I love you so... much more than a hernia operation."

"I love you so... you'll pay the rent."

"I love you so-so."

"I love you so... much more than things I don't love at all."

I know, I know, but we totally crack ourselves up.

They didn't take her in until 3, so it will be a while before we hear anything. Thanks for all your good wishes.

She's in a lot of pain. They kicked me out of the icu so she will sleep instead of talking to me. I can go in again in an hour or so.
