Thank you again, everybody!!!
.
Still in the hospital -- they're not real clear on what's causing the overwhelming weakness and
breathing probs I'm experiencing, but for now they're treating me symptomatically and going
through a lot of tests.
.
For those of you who don't know, I've got CHF (congestive heart failure) with A-fib/A-flutter
(which means that my heart sometimes doesn't PUMP fully... it "flutters" and instead of a
strong stream of blood moving along, I get ripples which aren't enough to fully oxygenate
my system).
.
There are things they and I can do to maximize what potential that I do have, but there
are also factors that can interfere with that.
.
Plus my obsessive, yet strangely healthy love/lust for hospital-based tagteam bedbaths
(TTBB). Never underestimate the significance of THAT factor.

One of my nurses from last night is really cute and had been having a bad night with
another patient. She has one of the prettiest voices I've ever heard and I let her know
that -- explaining how and why one of my favorite words is "mellifluous" (with all the
meanings that the word encompasses). She blushed and fanned herself and seriously
told me that I had just given her goosebumps.
.
Flat on my back and incapable of walking across the room without gasping for air
right now and I am STILL dangerous.
.

.
You would all do well to remember that.
