primroseburrowsMom Update:
My mom's at Westerly Hospital as of this morning, apparently with low BP and messed-up labs/EKG. I spoke to her on the phone, and since![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
songdog's going to go down there, she figured I could go tomorrow. She's getting two more units of blood, which she dismisses as "I've been anaemic all my life", to which I said, "Yeah, but you didn't need to get a transfusion every couple of weeks all your life." She said the EKG is abnormal, but that could mean anything, and she didn't know why, either.
She was doing completely fine until two days ago, so I don't know. I hope it's just meds and there's not anything funky like an internal bleed of some sort going on, because that would likely mean more surgery and that's just not cool. She's got a ton of stamina, so I'm concerned, but not worried at the moment. At least I'm trying not to be.
And because I need an injection of good moodiness,here's some
post-as-you-go picspam! In other words, I'm (fairly) randomly pic-surfing, so I have no idea what I'm posting until I do it. Most of these caps are from the lovely and talentedstormymouse's site (definitely an EFS--Essential Fannish Site. Go tell her how much you love her for it). A couple of them are sara_merry99's caps.
Firstly, a fandom gymnastics lesson.
Demonstrated here is the proper presentation of Paul Gross Arms, Modified Form #1:

This is Fraser. He wears three shirts, because dressing in layers is warm:
7.
This is also Fraser. Sometimes he doesn't wear as many shirts, like in prison where it's warmer:
8.
Fraser wears blue a lot, except when he's working for Truth, Justice, and the Canadian Way. Then he wears red serge, with a very high collar:

Unless of course, he's wearing this, which he doesn't do nearly enough:

Fraser. Benton Fraser.:

This is the AntiFraser. I don't know how many shirts he wears. I'm not sure if I want to find outbut I'm willing to give it the old college try:

My Geoffrey, all grown up. You know that he's half-crazy, but that's why you want to be there [/Leonard Cohen] :

This isn't Geoffrey, he just plays him on TV:

Well, okay, it started out random.
I'm suddenly craving a smoothie. Mambo smoothie, to be precise, from the Garden Grille.
Oh, and also, does anyone get the Hallmark Channel? Because, I'd really like a clear recording of this.

Date: 2007-03-14 11:17 pm (UTC)Oh Geoffrey, be mine. (And several hundred other womenses, I'm not proud, I can share.)
Fingers crossed for your mum.

Date: 2007-03-15 12:27 am (UTC)And quite a few men, I'm sure.
I'll be calling mum soon for an update. Thanks!

Date: 2007-03-15 12:15 am (UTC)These pics are lovely. He justs gets better and better looking. In fact - I prefer him now with the little wrinkles and lines. I will examine these VERY closely again before I go to sleep and hopefully he will walk through my dreams tonight! eeeww - I didn't mean that to sound kind of stalkery but I am afraid that it did.

Date: 2007-03-15 12:21 am (UTC)I agree, although people think I'm nuts when I say that I think Geoffrey is more attractive than Alex Bresnyachuk. Alex is pretty and a little gratuitous (and what's with the brown contacts?). Geoffrey is seasoned and gorgeous because of it.

And in regards to Paul Gross, I ordered a few more of his... films today. Two aren't, apparently, great works, but they were under $10.
And did you see the preview clip of Trojan Horse?? ::flails:: It looks amazing!

Date: 2007-03-15 12:24 am (UTC)Oh, yeah? What and where? I mean, there are a couple I won't touch.

Aspen Extreme (going for young and pretty); 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea (going for sweaty, manly and floopy hair) and Whale Music (token Canadian art flick). All from amazon.ca ::moans my poor, abused Visa card::

Date: 2007-03-15 12:40 am (UTC)Whale Music, I'll see, but for reasons having nothing to do with Paul Gross and everything to do with Maury Chaykin, because I love him, and I've heard he's amazing in this one. Like he's not in everything else he does.

Maury Chaykin kind of gives me the wig. Not that he isn't a great actor, but something about him has always made nervous ::shrugs:: So, Whale Music is all about Paul for me :)

Um. Not that I'm admitting to anything.

It's like saying Sky Blue. It's obvious, but sometimes it has to be said.
And thanks for the prayer. *hugs*
