recovery

Yesterday, I had ureteroscopic lasertripsy of a 12 mm calculus of my right kidney/ureter.

In other words, a lasergun was jammed up my johnson and then used to destroy and remove a large asteroid from the place where it has been excruciating me for some time.

My current status is uncomfortable and irritable, with a side of don't f*** with me.  There's a stent running from my kidney to my bladder, and a string tied to the stent which hangs out of my meatus and is taped to the side of my penis.  This little detail sucks unimaginably.  Morning wood feels like a cheese slicer is being used on my genitals until it goes away-- and the only time urinating doesn't hurt like broken glass is when I'm in the shower under hot water.

But I'm told everything went as planned and I should feel better in a week or two.

Anything is better than kidney pain every time I eat meat.

oh, haha, and--

Stay tuned for "Brian and Nick Go Into Business!"

Just as soon as we figure out what we're going to provide...

marriage

I got married last sunday. It's friday now. I've had the week from hell, and I'm leaving for my honeymoon in the morning.

We'll fly to Seattle, then to the Port to embark on our voyage to Alaska.

I choose my vacations based on the lowest probability that my mobile phone will get a connection-- so I'm sure internet will be even sketchier; however, I'll post some sort of recap when I return.

Marriage: 1 + 1 = 1

Just Got Here

So I'm going to look around. But I'll be back. For anyone who finds this, your interest may wane when you realize this is a blog for fixes on the network I administer.
