@achewood I haven't had a haircut since July. I'm hoping to, "wait it out."

Haven't you guys heard?  Thirty is the new 21.  Forty is the new thirty.  Fifty is the new forty five, and seventy is the new sixty.  We're all good to go!

I really do not want to do 21 again. I mean, it was fine the first time, I guess, but things didn't really start getting good until about 24 or so.

Can 30 be the new 25? I could do 25 - 30 again.

Oh man, I would never do my 20's again.  That was such a hard decade.  Good times.  Hard times.  Lots of things I'd never want to live through twice.

Diverticulitis?   My mom got diagnosed with that a little while back.  Not really a disease - a condition.  Like baldness.

Yup - that's the one.  Considering it's low on the "disease I have that require attention" I have basically forgotten about it, apart from eating an All Bran cereal bar most mornings for breakfast.

For those keeping score, diseases I have been diagnosed with and am currently dealing with on some level, in order of shittiness:

Osteoarthritis with nonspecific rheumatoid symptoms (in my lower back, hips, knees, right foot and jaw) - had it since I was 16.  Sucks.  I refuse to take pain meds though.
Hypothyroidism - also had it since I was sixteen.  I'm on coast with my meds these days, but when I crash, I crash hard.
Psoriasis - minor sporadic outbreaks.  Ugly, itchy, flaky.  Occasional affronts to my vanity.
Diverticulitis - occasional digestive issues, basically feels the same as when you eat too much pizza.

Plus I got depression (though not a problem lately!) and a back injury I've almost recovered from.

On a similar note, had to explain to the oldest the other day that the dogs laying turds the consistency of pumice stones did not mean they were dying of something odd. It meant he should have spaced out the ham shanks they got fed.
I'm frequently amazed by the digestive powers of my dog.  I gave her (30lb fluffy white American Eskimo, for those not keeping score) a big ol' hunk of pig bone (piece of pelvis or something) which she dragged behind the trash can and demolished in about 15min.  Nothing left.  I was sure it would last her at least a week of gnawing.

My grandboss got this hard 2 years ago. She can never eat nuts or seeds again.

That must have been what my grandmother had. She couldn't eat nuts or seeds, but I didn't know why.

The interesting thing is that from what I've read, the advice to avoid nuts and seeds if you have diverticulitis (which is not something my doctor suggested) is an old school idea and not based in any scientific fact.  The Mayo Clinic info indicates that it's okay to eat nuts, seeds, etc. which is good news, because I really enjoy nuts, especially in a stir fry.

I like my doc. Next week we're going to take pictures of my heart to make sure I actually have one.

Got the letter from the doctor today. I peeled a couple of millimeters off my heart wall thickness. This is good news was brought about by 18 months of vicious labour. I guess I can hold off genetics for a while.

My, what a disturbing mental image.

All Mola Ram sticking his fingers in your chest, all "Kali ma shakti de, kali ma shakti de, -- by the way, I charge by the hour -- kali ma..." All Ash trying to bill his health insurance for services rendered by a Thuggee high priest but not knowing the provider code.
