Just thought I'd mosey on over and let everyone else know I'm still technically alive and kicking.
Since right before SDCC this year I've been dealing with a mysterious lump in my throat (no, Eddie, not a cock, we checked). It's an 'unknown mass' thats protruding out of my voice box. It's been there since last Fall, but it's started to impact swallowing/breathing now, so I've gone through 4 or 5 different tests just to have them tell me "we don't know what it is". Thanks, Kaiser.
So now, well, tomorrow, I'm having surgery so they can cut it out and run tests on it to see what exactly it is and if it's cancerous etc. Fun times.
It's too big to go down my throat (ha ha!), so they literally have to cut open my neck to remove it. It's been scheduled for a few weeks, and initially I was just happy to finally be doing something about it.. but with the surgery being tomorrow morning (0730 PDT!) I'm really kind of nervous about the whole thing. Shoulder surgery is one thing, fucking with your 'breathing hole' is a whole other stresser.
They're keeping me in the hospital overnight for observations etc. Got a whole spiel on what 'could' go wrong, so that's awesome. At least there will be some MORE good drugs going around.
So yeah, I guess tomorrow we find out if The Curse is planning on finishing me off quickly or not.
Big thanks to MAJOR BLOOD for running the site in my absence. Hopefully after this is sorted out I can start getting back into things, though there is always more drama on the horizon.. so we'll see. I'll likely be doing a 'Thunderdan-esque' sell-off of my stuff in the next few months, so stay tuned (assuming I live).
Rex.. I have your stuff, in an actual BOX! With your address on it, so in the event I die, it will still be shipped soon.
Bravestarr.. the Sgt Slaughter is in storage somewhere, so once I start going through that I'll send him out for you.
Guess that's all for now, got to get to bed for a 5am wakeup call.. blah.
In the event I don't make it, it was great knowing all of you in whatever capacity I've had the opportunity to. I'm constantly shocked and amazed that the site is still running strong, even with everything stacked against us (crappy market, no 1:18 to speak of, toy nazis!), thanks everyone for making the site a success in my eyes.
Take care.
