Preacher! Are You Looking At My Ass?

First, thanks to the faithful few who keep checking in with good wishes--Annika, Peebs, Redman, and Marilyn--to be specific. I don't think I left anybody out because all those Europeans catching up on old my old Deadwood stuff don't count. Just kidding, NewEuropeanBuddies! Of course you count, without you my blog would be a bigger ghost town Deadwood, CA. *sigh*
I don't even know where to start with the catching up on the Health Fuckery Front, from now until further notice to be know as the HFF but if this gives you a clue I've been referred to a specialist at John Hopkins because he is the only physician in the country who's board certified in neurology, rheumatology, and internal medicine. Yes, it has come to that.
But fiddly-dee, and fuck-it-all, let's have some birthday folderol ..because this whatever happened to me about a week before my birthday TWO YEARS AGO and I'm still free-falling off this neurological ledge. So, today has been a challenge, about the two year thing. There may have been a few tears.
OK, a bucketful. Also, shutup.
An old friend sent me this photo today--that's me in the plaid dress right after a high school play. I was playing the Old West Lady Journalist. I can't remember what part the guy trick-of-photographly gazing at my derriere was playing but he was one of my best friends and he is a real-life preacher ..and he presided over my unfortunate TenMinuteMarriage. I do not lie, except about the marriage being an actual ten minutes--I wish!!.
I made my own costume --the dress, not the blouse. I bought the blouse, they were easy to find back then, I think prairie-looking blouses were all the rage in the Mesozoic Era. Annnnnyways. I was not a very good actress but that never stopped me. Nothing ever stops me.
I'll mop the floor with that bucket of tears.

...does this mean it's your birthday?

Yepper, it was yesterday--the birthday wasn't bothering me but the marking of another year of Mystery Illness FunTime was a bit of a bastard.

Happy Belated Birthday, sweetie!
Sorry about the MIFT anniversary. :(
I hope it cheers you up, to hear that Big Earl says Milch is writing the Deadwood movie...it's happening!! (in case you didn't already know).

I thought I'd heard it but wasn't sure if it was just feverdream fuckery during the months when I was super-encephalitic. (the worst superpower ever, BTW .. LOL .. OMGs!!)
Good to know the Deadwood movie is for real. These doctors really have to get it together--I have to see this movie, you WhiteCoatCocksuckers!

[Peebs]

"worst superpower ever" :-D LOL

Yup, I'm still here. Lost you for a while when my PC died and with it my bookmarks I've had for years. Found you again on an old windows ME computer in the favorites. I had first run across your blog in my early days of being on the internet back in he "Deadwood Days" on HBO
