Emp hasd his gall bladder out Monday.

ahh, okay, thanks egg.

Sorry, HAD his GB out monday. I think they did lapro.

Good luck to him. lapo or cut ?

It was lapro.  It's awesome, because 2 days later there really was no pain.  

It's going to be hard to stick to the activity restrictions, though.  I spent the last year getting over the laziness that graduate school had driven into me.  I don't really like sitting around anymore.

knitting?

masturbation.

Catalogue kiddie porn.

drinking whiskey!

Ha.  Liquor is definitely off the menu for a while. 

What does a gallbladder do? Why is it OK to take it out?

Emp, do you think that you're going to get Dumping Syndrome?

I'm actually not too worried about any of the post-gall bladder gastric problems since I cook a very low fat, vegetarian diet at home.  It just means I have to change my habits for dining out and eating at other people's houses. 

No more sausage at the river for you!

Luke, you're disinvited to all future events.

Whew.

Having beers!
Nick asked for pictures!

FIRST BEER:  Joke beer
I got it as a lark.  It did taste like banana bread, I'll give it that.


3/10

SECOND BEER:  Known-good beer
I got this one specifically in case the first beer was crappy.



6/10

Now try the VB....

-10/10

THIRD BEER:  Known-good brand, unknown varietal
I got this one because it was next to the original, and because I think Craig Ferguson is funny.



It tastes quite a bit like the original, actually.  Just darker.  A wee bit heavier, I guess.

6/10

I went and saw a bunch of titty's and vagina's last night...

Was the most boring part of the evening.

No, he's in a iterative alcoholic loop.

No Luke was hammered after the Ladytron show.  I mean, DRUNK.

FOURTH BEER:  known-good varietal, unknown brand
I got this one because I like IPAs, and this brand had a bunch of other varietals that I wanted to check out.



There was a little strangeness upon opening the bottle, though:


I think this is a very bland IPA upfront, which doesn't bode well for the remaining beers from this brand.
I'm pleased with the aftertaste, though.

I was drunk about an hour after the ladytron show (near when you left).
I did get a great manicure, though!  And I met random people.  And nearly got into ANOTHER fight, unintentionally.
I'll tell you about that, sometime.

No, he's in a iterative alcoholic loop.

Indubitably.

Isn't that the truth.

And nearly got into ANOTHER fight, unintentionally.

Oh man. I'm going to get you shitfaced in NYC. I want to see you fight somebody (who isn't me or C). haha

The batchelor party I went to was fun until strippers became involved. Not being gay or anything, I was BORED! I seen it all before, so I concentrated on being drunk and saying random weird shit to strippers that wanted to "rock my world"...

And nearly got into ANOTHER fight, unintentionally.

Oh man. I'm going to get you shitfaced in NYC. I want to see you fight somebody (who isn't me or C). haha

Listen, I never get into fights with people on purpose.
It's always situations that spiral out of control rapidly, based on innocuous comments from me.
But you're welcome to try to get my shitfaced, as long as you pace me on the drinks.

FIFTH BEER:  unproven brand, unknown varietal
I got this beer because it was organic, and that's like saying that you're a green company these days!



It's reasonably good as well, but not outstanding.
For those of you counting at home, this is ~4.4 L of beer.  So far.
