Can finally eat semi-solid foods - stitches are all but gone and swelling is minimal. Still pretty tender but on the mend for sure. And I can talk without a lisp. Next appointment on the 2nd will be a relatively easy one 8) [youtube]_r0FtxqR9Pc [/youtube]
Married 6 years today, so went to the sauna / spa. 5 challengers entered the sauna with me, 5 challengers defeated. Headache is worth it.

Thanks! Property search continues ;\ In other news, reading some proposed NYC humans rights commission amendments (or whatever they would be called): http://www.nyc.gov/html/cchr/html/law/gender-identity-legalguidance.shtml#3.1 Has NYC always been run by escaped mental asylum patients? In any event my preferred personal pronoun, just in case I'm ever in NYC and bump into any of you - I would have for anyone to be fined: The self is a relation that relates itself to itself or is the relation's relating itself to itself in the relation; the self is not the relation but is the relation's relating itself to itself. As you can see I'm a gender neutral abstract description of a concrete synthesis of relational opposites within the being that instantiates the relation in question, and I won't have reality telling me any different.
I will call you "we". You are a part of the hive, thus, we. Or oui. Or wee. Or wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. Perhaps you could some up with a symbol you like. I'm fond of the pilcrow, myself.
Did you just assume my preferred spelling?!* It is 'Ouais' *It's a play on a meme [youtube]rqMrZlLJXRA[/youtube]
The usual: fines and legal battles for misgendering, offending no one in particular re: gender, telling the wrong joke, saying surgery doesn't turn a man into a woman, calling Caitlyn Bruce, etc. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/05/17/canadian-pm-justin-trudeau-announces-ban-on-transgender-discrimi/ Canada doesn't have the speech protections you have in the US, so while you don't hear about it often, Canada does indeed prosecute thought crime, aka, hate speech.
So, fighting grid-lock in the City yesterday and get suddenly cut-off and delayed by "Dykes on Bikes" convoy, aye 8)
Well, at least if you would have had a flat tire, someone would have been around to helpmyounchange it.
Service with a smile, no doubt. I know of a crew of female sheetrockers who are the best in the business - one doesn't want to mess with them 8)
