Beck, I think what you need is some bailing wire and electrical tape to fix those brain impulses that are sending shocks to your body.

Glad you’re back. What did we miss?

Everyone needs duct tape. It’s like the Force. It has a dark side, and a light side, and it binds the universe together.

Maybe we can all sign the [Duct Tape Madrigal in C Major](http://www.songlyrics.com/lou-nathanson/duct-tape-madrigal-in-c-major-lyrics/).

I’ve had a couple problems. Mostly I’ve eliminated them.

Food is still good. Most folks are pleasant to enough.

I miss going outside. It’s just too hot.  
The cats seem ok. I keep an eye on their watering thing.

I’m glad you are able to keep an eye on the cats, but I’m also very glad you are in air conditioning. I’m grateful we had a cold front sweep through yesterday. Sending cool thoughts your way.

I bet peeps didn’t even notice (or CARE) that I’ve been AWOL for about a week. I fell into a book, which led to another, which led to…

You know how it goes.

I stopped by this thread first, to see what’s been going on. And I see the heat and mizry is making everyone crabby.

I vaguely remember hearing that elephant joke a hundred years ago. It was fun to read it again, and it made me giggle. That’s a good joke to share with my granddaughters!

Bekkers, my love, you need to use some smart-ass remarks on Hildegard as an outlet for your frustrations. Such as: “Whips and chains today, or just handcuffs?” “Where are the black stilleto heels and fishnet stockings?” “I’m supposed to ‘assume the position,’ right?”

Carry on!

Yes, yes we do.

Great suggestion for comments to Hildegard.

Okay. I’m back on my usual brain activity.  
Actually I’m not sure about that, anymore.  
Peeps understand me, mostly.

I’ve had a couple days where my thinking was somewhat normal.

So I decided to post.  
(Again, if I start talking weird, someone flag me).

The days have grown wearisome here at rehab. I rehab, I eat, I walk, check on the cats outdoors.

I can’t stay long it’s just so hot and humid. But I do check on their water, everyday.

I’m on a new adventure. I’ve been asked to just try and talk out-loud to a few people everyday. And I’ve actually successfully done so. Not any long diatribes just a friendly hello. Answer one question or say what I need.  
I have to say the CNA I know here was dumbfounded. She thought I was deaf. So she’s aggravating me asking questions. I can hork a yes or no out. She’s good practice and I feel safe with her.

That’s where I’ve been.

Missed you all.
