Someone want to give me a hand, here?
I need to go upstairs to bed, but I can't, well, actually, the truth is, walk right now.

And my damned crutches are in my damned office on the other side of the house. Let me look around the screen porch for something I can use as a cane, though...no need to panic.

1. I would but
1. By the time I could fly out it'd be tomorrow

2. You wouldn't have much luck picking me up from the airport unless

3. You'd figured out the locomotion thing on your own.

Otherwise you know I would. :hug:

You're a peach.

9. Peg, you're too small. That's not an insult. You'd have to bring a
forklift with you.

But don't think for a moment that I don't appreciate it.

6. I will
I'm still fighting through my personal hell, and know what it's like.

I actually started closing my eyes and started imagining where everything was. I still do.

11. It's all right, darlin'...I just spotted a push-broom in the corner.
Mrs R is gonna be surprised as hell to see it in the bedroom tomorrow morning...but she'll know why it's there and apologize all to hell that she wasn't awake to help me, not that any of this is her fault; I did this to myself before she knew me.

I'm rambling. Time to grab the broom and go.

And thank you.

10. Yaaaay Redstone! Woo hoo!








Oh. Wait. That's not what you meant by "giving you a hand," was it?



Oops. Sorry.


:blush:



Okay, really I'm not sorry because if I made you laugh just a tiny bit or even smile a little, odds are good that doing so released a few endorphoin molecules which in turn may have helped diminish your pain even if ever so slightly, and that is the best actual pain relief I figured I could provide via computer pixels. Here, let's try to activate a few more endorphins:


:hug:


Feeling any better sweetie?

12. You.
Dammit if you didn't make me feel better. Think I can make it up those stairs (with that broom handle and the laughs from your post) now.

Yes, you. Nobody but you.
