CarrionCrow: Hey, everyone. Good morning/afternoon. =)

Hopefully everyone's having a decent day at the very least.

AgentBirdnest: Morning, Carrion!
Decent-ish here. How about you?
Can't complain too much here, thanks. =)
Actually slept last night rather than being up til 3 or 4 in the morning, so that's something.
Course, the soda I left in the freezer and then forgot about overnight is currently a block of slowly melting ice on the kitchen table. Whoops.
But still, if that's the worst thing that happens today, I've got a pretty good time in store overall.

Also, have noticed that putting stand-up comedy on helps take the edge off of the crap game I'm playing, so that's good. Doug Stanhope makes for a hell of a lot better soundtrack. =)

EndreWhiteMane: It's a minor operation since all I want is the longer eyelashes. ;)
Not even a boob job? I thought that was pretty standard for sex-changes. :-)

Why could you not post?

Stilton: Hi, Endre. I wasn't sure when it was. I had a 'procedure' myself a while before Christmas, and I was pleased to find the word a lot more ominous than the reality. Hope you're in and out fast and boiling up a fresh coffee before you know it.

EndreWhiteMane: Hi General! Yeah, should be a minor thing and I should be back here by tomorrow afternoon.
"Procedure" just means they probably don't need a scalpel. :/
Mine was all pipes and compressed air - I'll leave you to wonder what it was for, but there were plenty of humorous comments about me flying around the room like a discarded balloon, most of them from me. Whenever I'm checked over before I go in they always ask, "Are you allergic to anything?" "Only pain" is my usual answer, but I'm never sure if their smiles are because I don't know what's going to happen at that point. One time a young gay nurse had to give me a syringe in the rear and as I rolled onto my front I said, "I've never had a prick up the bum before." I'm not sure if he found it funny, but it made me laugh.

My brother had some great birds in his yard over Christmas. I took a lot of photos. One bird, a Pine Warbler, was doing a lot of posing. I don't get to see them very often, so it was an extra treat for me. I'm attaching one of his glamour shots.

Clearly a self-aware star. :-)

Leave it to the Germans to give a tasty snack such a dour name. ;)
Well, it's not like the German language is full of soft and round sounds anyway. And going with the Volksetymologie of Lebkuchen deriving from Leben (life) and Kuchen (cake) makes the name quite fitting!

Of course it would. *sigh*
Do you at least know that you will be able to undergo the procedure since you didn't take them?

You know you have to post a "before" and "after" photo now, right?

EndreWhiteMane: ...
Now before you go for your procedure tomorrow, you have to do one thing.

1. Make sure your wishlist is up to date, so we can all buy you some presents when you get back from your procedure. :-)

Pipes and compressed air....well, I think the origin of the whole rocket Viking concept is becoming clearer thanks to that. ;)
Makes me think of a trip to the dentist. They're getting ready to give me an injection to knock me out, the dentist says you're going to feel a pinch, they jab me with the needle, and I tell him, "I don't mean to offend anyone, considering all the lady nurses in the room, but you pinch like a girl." Then I passed out.

Nope, just the eyelashes, baby steps ya know.

I'm waiting for someone to say, "Don't worry, sir; just a little prick with a needle," to which my reply is going to be, "I know you are."

It won't effect the procedure I'm sure, Nitro is an 'as needed' med, not one you take regularly.
If you can make the lashes longer on my avatar you will have captured the 'after'. :-)

Well, you'll know whether they have a sense of humor or not. If they don't chuckle at least? No sense of humor, and as such they're someone to avoid whenever possible.

I'm sure you will look stunning with new eyelashes. :-)

My favorite line with the cute nurses is "Hold my hand I'm scared" usually works until the see my grin. :-)

That being said, they do an incredible job. Sometimes my stony Viking emotions have even been brought close to tears by just how amazingly helpful and nice they are. I mean, truly amazing people.
