I'm sitting here in Mike's bedroom, watching Love, Actually. We had plans to go out to dinner tonight and then see Kinsey. Best laid plans, and all that... :)

Michael fell last night while playing football in the dark. After a brief hospital visit this morning, it was determined that he's got bruised ribs and a partially-collapsed lung. It's not exactly as bad as it sounds-- although he is in a bit, okay... a lot of pain. Every time he moves, it's pretty bad, so currently he's lying down with a nice heating pad. His mother and I are currently trying to get him to take Monday off, because he's not exactly going to be of much use around the office, what with the not being able to move and stuff. He's even got one of those little breath-monitor thingies that he's got to blow into every half-hour to make sure that half of lung re-inflates. As for Kinsey, the movies can wait. I know that when I bruised my ribs, I was hobbling about on crutches for a few weeks.

So. Coffee. Drooling over the hot guy in the movie. Awwwing at Liam Neeson and the kid and Titanic. Giggling at Hugh Grant dancing and sighing wistfully over Mr. Darcy... er, Colin Firth. Yelling for Kiera Knightley to eat a goddamn cheeseburger. You know, the usual-- 'cept for everytime Mike laughs, he crumples over. :P


The "get well, Mike!" line begins here.



And whee, Beth emailed me back and I'll also have a BPAL order waiting for me on Monday!

To Mike:

Get better, hon!

Hope Mike gets better soon.

I'll do stuff to make sure. If he doesn't mind, that is.

to mike. get well soon. i know what a collapsed lung feels like...i had one collapse on me fully about 11 1/2 years ago. it hurts like a mofo. add the bruised ribs...ouch.

definitely he should take off monday and he should avoid driving until his breathing is normal. i don't know how it works with a partially collapsed lung, but with mine i had to go to the hospital. (it was fully collapsed).

good vibes to you both.

I *hated* Love Actually. I keep thinking maybe it's one of those ones that will be better on a second viewing. Colin Firth is so very Rarr. Who's the "hot guy"?

Get well soon

I'm so sorry to hear that. It's hard when you're in pain, but you're doing a great job being nurse and taking care of him. *sending good vibes your way*
I was told "Love Actually" was a pretty good movie. I'll have to see it sometime. =)

I really really liked "Love Actually". Though, no Dad would ever encourage their son to breach airport security. But that's why its a movie! it was sooooo cute. :)

And the Hugh Grant dancing scene was TOOOOO funny. :)

Mike: get well soon. I command this.

Aww, I really hope Mike gets better soon. As someone who can't go a week without seriously injuring herself, I know falling totally sucks. *gives him cookies*


Yay for Beth emailing you back! I'm assuming she's letting you pay for your Yule order! Did you order anything from the Cold Moon update?

[sihaya09.livejournal.com]

Yes, I'll be getting Skadi, Midwinter's Eve, Ice Queen, and Queen of Diamonds.

I paypalled belladonnastrap money last week, and she ordered Cold Moon for me, plus a 6-pack of implets. Although now I see La Bella Donna Au Bois Dormant, and I want it! :) There's always the next update--- because, not including the one I'll be receing tomorrow, I have three outstanding orders as it is!

*Get Well Soon Mike!*

I hope he takes off Monday -- I can't imagine working with a partially collapsed lung. Yarg.

And yes, Kiera really does need to eat a cheeseburger... or forty.

Hey. Want to go see Alexander? It looks terrible, I know, but see this quote?
"But the only truly heroic presence in the picture is Angelina Jolie, improbably but delightfully cast as Alexander's imperious mother, Olympias. Jolie slits her eyes and toys with her lines, controlling the space without raising her voice. I don't care how nuts she is, Jolie is the real deal: a gorgeous, epic-scaled actress who can transform herself from the inside out. She could eat Colin Farrell for breakfast and pick her teeth with Jared Leto. Forget Alexander: The film is a pedestal to Angelina the great."
You're probably the only other person I know who thinks that's a good enough reason to see it. So, when and where?

Oh, right, and Mike, get better.
