A Little Help From My Friends

I'm having a bad morning. Nothing I can put my finger on, just sort of a free-floating sense of doom. It would be stupid of me to say it was totally unrelated to health, but that wasn't really what I was thinking about or feeling when it hit. Whatever it is, it's bigger than and it's bigger than the meds. Anyway, I know this isn't exactly why we come here, but I could use some help.

If you have a little positive energy you could send my way, I'd be grateful. If I get really energized, I will post a topless selfie as a thank you.

I've known you for over a decade here, as have almost everyone else here. We're with you.

Whatever it is you're feeling, however amorphously ominous it feels, you've been through worse, and you keep going. It'll pass, man. It'll pass. You're in the safest place you can be right now, and you know a symptom of the condition is momentary depression and anxiety. Hence, the fleeting pall you're experiencing.

Put that shit out of your head. Ride it out. You'll laugh about this tomorrow. Hell, you'll smile about it a few hours from now. We're with you.

I am not with you, however, on receiving a topless selfie. Unless you've got a hot, accommodating nurse involved.

You'll be fine, Wonk. Deep breath... ride it out.

Any positive energy I have I send in your direction. I imagine it's boring as hell in there. Is there anything to do?

Positive energy coming your way from these parts. Even some prayers - let me know which Gods you'd like me to pray to, I'm a Catholic of the Hindu variety (Happy Diwali and may Mother Mary look over you!) so I can pretty much go with any you'd like.

I think I've got some left over medical mar. lozenges that people gave me when I was doing the chemo. Should I be getting them to you for hospital usage? How do you feel about getting boxes in plain brown wrapping with no return address?

Positive energy sent direct from California, my friend. I'll ask that you return the favor one of these days.

Also, here are some things for you to persue on the interwebs that may either may you happy or enrage your sense of taste, but should entertain you anyway:

I'm as big a fan of Wonk as the next guy, but what about me? I got an A-lister Mod here suggesting a shot gun blast to my face, and a B-lister mod suggesting my whole state get nuked on the P-B. Not a good day for me either

You're saying the thought of Hank getting shot in the face doesn't do anything for you?

When the dick (cheney) jokes don't work anymore, I don't know what to say, man. Hang in there.

Dude, you are the Dick Cheney (in a good way*+) of this board. Sucks that you keep having to deal with this, but glad you're around and still a force to be dealt with.

*Yeah, those are words seldom strung together in that particular order.
