I’m on the right side of the fucking grass right now. Let you know in a few days. And also we’re not supposed to use fuck in the question. It reflects bad on fluther in the web community.

Third wife left me for a Satanic High Priest who downloaded his kiddy porn onto my Googa Drive which ended up with me sittin’ in the pokey next to smiling Bubba. Lost my house and cars. Reputation a bit tainted too. Dog ran away. Cat died.

Kids won’t visit me in prison cause I’m now known as “the perv”. Hemorrhoids are flaring and really making my sphincter crawl. Bubba thinks he can help me with that. But I just can’t consider anything else until this nasty rash relents from the rear of my scrotum. Damned ozone depletion at the top of my scalp dumps what’s left of my youth down the cell drain every morning. Bubba gets jiggy when I reach down to save it. He wants to wash my back.

Other than that, things are purty good.

You?

Not good…feeling unappreciated at my job, and made a really stupid mistake today that could have messed things up with a friend…

dappled_leaves's avatar

I’m good. Starting to feel one pressure lift (money) as another descends (time). Glad to see you back alive.

josie's avatar

@Adirondackwannabe
Thanks
Wouldn’t want to reflect badly
Stay on the right side
@RealEyesRealizeRealLies
I am super. Happy to be here.
@yankeetooter
Sorry about your job.
Call your friend and be contrite
@dappled_leaves
Pressure is always there I guess. Thanks. Good to be here. For good this time.

I have an enlarged heart, enlarged ascending aorta, a large gastroesophageal hernia, possible sleep apnea, shortness of breath and chest pains. I’m waiting to see a cardiologist to find out why my heart and aorta are enlarged, and I’m waiting to see my pulmonologist for more testing for sleep apnea. I’m tired all the time, I have no energy and I often feel lightheaded. I hate to just talk about my health right now, but it has taken over my life the past few months. I don’t feel like the energetic jonsblond who hates sitting still. I hate it.

I’ve been better. How are you @josie? Good to have you back.

Earthbound_Misfit's avatar

I’m good. I’m just at the end of a number of deadlines and about to start on the next but Christmas is coming, my health is good, my husband and my kids are all well. My dogs are old but fit as fiddles, my cat loves me (in his own way). Summer is here and the sun is shining. Plus I just saw a job I might be interested in. I’m wavering on whether to apply but you know when you get that butterfly feeling in your gut and think ‘this could be really good for me’, I’m there and thinking about it.

I hope you’re well @josie and thank you for asking.

And @jonsblond, I hope the doctor has good news for you and this is something they can resolve quickly and successfully. Sending you hugs and the hope for a much better 2015.

josie's avatar

@jonsblond
I am sorry to hear that. You deserve better. I hope it is a problem that is easily managed so you can get back to your old self. I will keep you in my thoughts.
I am great. It is really good to be back. Thanks for asking.

@Earthbound_Misfit
Go for the job. Life is short. Make it an adventure.

Earthbound_Misfit's avatar

You are so right @josie. This sounds odd, but I have an appointment with my life coach in a few hours. I’m going to talk to her about it. I’m at a sort of natural break in my career and yes, now might be just the right time to put out feelers and see what I find. It’s not a specific ‘job’, but a change in a large organisation that connects in very closely with what I’ve been doing for the last few years.

So what are you up to? How’s your adventure?

josie's avatar

@Earthbound_Misfit
Not to contradict myself, but I am about adventured out for a while. I think I might learn to paint or something. Something peaceful.

yankeetooter's avatar

@josie…I did and everything is fine (he’s great that way), but I’m just mad at myself (and my stupid phone) for creating what could have been a very awkward situation.

Earthbound_Misfit's avatar

Painting is an adventure. I think we all need a creative outlet as well as more intellectual pursuits. We need to be well-rounded across a whole range of areas. I haven’t painted for so long, but I find it fun and therapeutic. I hope you’ll share some of your pieces with us as you produce them.

chyna's avatar

Feeling good.
@jonsblond So sorry you have all of these medical issues. {{{hugs}}}
@josie Glad you came back.

Still managing to get out of school mess. Take up creating memes and short comics on the way. Saw two new jellies from my country and (unsuccessfully) managed to get them stay here. Got to see a jelly’s face and some of their stuff.

In general, busy.

Adirondackwannabe's avatar

@jonsblond Here’s a prayer for you and your family. When your health lets you down everything sucks. Do you have good docs?

hug_of_war's avatar

Kind of sad. Tired of feeling sad.

Adirondackwannabe's avatar

Hey lady, you are a tough motherfucker. You can fight. Let’s go.

dxs's avatar

Fine, you?

FireMadeFlesh's avatar

I’m good, just hoping I can correct my knee bio-mechanics before I do a half-marathon with obstacles in just over a week. I haven’t run in nearly two months, so it’s going to be pretty interesting.

Good to see you back @josie. What’ve you been up to in your time off?

osoraro's avatar

I have a lot of gas.

jca's avatar

I’m good. I’m on vacation in Orlando for 7 nights, total right now. This is night 3. We did Sea World yesterday and Magic Kingdom today. Enjoying nice weather and a free upgrade on hotel room, free upgrade on rental car, and just enjoying not being at work and dealing with regular schedule and stress.

DrasticDreamer's avatar

Mehhhhh! It’s been a long time, but I remember you, and I hope you’re well.

ZEPHYRA's avatar

Welcome back. Been better, don’t know if I’ll get worse, hope things get better or at least stay the same.

JLeslie's avatar

Hi @josie! I’m good and bad. Loving the Florida weather. Ate at a new restaurant last weekend that was very enjoyable. I still love living in my apartment. I saw a bunch of my friends from where I used to live a couple weeks ago in Daytona.

The bad is I’m building a house and have some pretty significant concerns about the grading around the house, I have a lot if regrets surrounding the house endeavor (too many to list) and I hate that I am not excited about what should be a happy thing. Rather I am extremely stressed about making wrong decisions. This is the 5th house I have built and it has never been like this. This builder is killing me and through the whole process I have oscillated about taking legal action. It’s awful.

Top ‘a’ the world ma!

UnholyThirst's avatar

I’m feeling well, thank you. I’ve been encircling my tongue on corpses…

Strauss's avatar

@josie! Good to see you! I’m doing a hell of a lot better now that I was about four months ago!

mazingerz88's avatar

Fucking @josie‘s back. Well…great-! :)

Right now i’m just terrible. The only thing that would make it worse is if I suddenly got terminal cancer. It would be totally freakin hilarious to me if that actually happens next week….or so. I am depressed and we are legion-!

( just don’t know anybody else in the legion…but i’m sure i’m not the only one and so my heart goes out to others in the legion. It’s terrible. )

rojo's avatar

I am well, thanks for asking

Good to have you back amongst the inmates again.

Mastema's avatar

I’m never “Fine.” Fine is stagnant. I feel powerful.

Coloma's avatar

Pretty good, had a few health issues about a month ago, feeling fine again now. Getting ready to head down to the horse barn to get a jump on some chores and soak in the sunshine. A mind blowingly lovely afternoon, 75 degrees and leaves falling.

josie's avatar

@Coloma Do you still have geese?
@Mastema Me too. In fact these days I feel sort of invincible
@rojo It is good to be back. Really good
@mazingerz88 At least you are here. It is always darkest before dawn.
@Yetanotheruser Moving in the right direction
@UnholyThirst I just came from a place where I saw lots of those. I don’t share your affection for it, but to each his own…
@ucme Good!
@JLeslie Florida sounds pretty good to me. Regarding the builder-get in his face and tell him exactly what you expect and that you will not take excuses. And stay in his face.
@ZEPHYRA Stay positive. It could just about always be worse
@DrasticDreamer I am super. Thanks.
@jca Disney. Sounds good.
@osoraro Why not? Gas is cheap these days

josie's avatar

@FireMadeFlesh I will wind up having both my knees replaced. Oh well.
I have been to the worst place on Earth where the worst people on Earth live.
The good news is I am not going back.
You fuckers are stuck with me.

josie's avatar

@dxs Could not be better
@hug_of_war Attitude is everything. Work on it. I will help you.
@Mimishu1995 Busy is good. Idle hands…you know.
@chyna Good to be back. Thanks.

Coloma's avatar

@josie Yep, reunited!

rojo's avatar

^^^You were in Congress???

Strauss's avatar

@Josie Someone I know very well had both his knees replaced several years ago. He’s been athletic all his life, and the new knees allow him to continue the lifestyle. He’s pushing 70 and still playing softball in a senior league.

crissy14's avatar

I’m fucking great! Wanna go have a drink or three, Josie?

Coloma's avatar

Hey, party at the ranch tonight. Drinks in the veranda watchin’ that full moon crossin’ the range. I have the giant telescope set up too. :-)

josie's avatar

@Coloma Have fun. Wish I could be there. The moon looks good from here too.
I’ve actually been thinking about getting a telescope.
You just gave me an idea for a question.

josie's avatar

@Coloma Did you make some brownies? Really wish I could be there.

Coloma's avatar

@josie No, brownie fixins’ coming in tomorrow. haha
Man, that moon, 6:12 on the west coast and it just rose above the timberline, I can see the silhouettes of the Ponderosa pines at the base of this golden beauty. Okay, back to our beer and porch sitting.

josie's avatar

Have fun

jca's avatar

@Coloma: If and when I take my next trip to Cali, I’m definitely coming to visit. I don’t want the “special” brownies, just regular ones with walnuts, thank you. I’d love to hang on the ranch and see the view. To me, Cali is one of the most beautiful places on Earth.

Coloma's avatar

I am exhausted! lol
Been working my behind off the last 6 days and am now on a cooking jag to set up dinners for us all for the week. Sunday I made a huge pot of my killer spaghetti sauce, yesterday I made steak sandwiches and oven baked fries for dinner, plus, a crock pot full of Minestrone soup and another one of BBQ’d chicken. I JUST finished setting up another crock pot of veggie chili, we have enough food around here to sink the Titanic.

This chili is going to be amazing!
Special seasonings, scads of red, yellow and orange bell peppers, fresh, soaked overnight, pinto beans, loads of onions, kidney beans, fire roasted salsa, garlic, green chilis, diced tomatoes and Newcastle Brown beer. I am going to make flour tortilla chips to go with it tomorrow. Oh man, my ass is expanding just thinking about it. haha

jca's avatar

@Coloma: How many people do you live with?

Coloma's avatar

@jca My friends, a husband and wife. They travel a lot so I take care of most of the meals, we cook together fairly often too. :-)

Magical_Muggle's avatar

I am very good, thankyou for asking @josie
if not a littles stressed at the moment, but otherwise fine!

Hypocrisy_Central's avatar

Heaven only knows, I am just waiting for the end.
