very true my dear. that was, I think, part of my point--my bosy is "messed up" by a doctor's standard but I love it and it functions pretty damn well for me and I'm happy with it/being in it. the irony.

I comment on your list tommorow, when I's not so sleepy.

as for Sept--can y'all put me up for a night?

er, body.

We can definitely put you up for a night, although we'll have to figure out what you can sleep on... hopefully by then we'll have a futon or fold-away cot.
Love your body! My mom always says that your body can 'hear' you, so praise it for doing its best, and it will work better.

my mom did it with her car too--praising it. seemed to work.
