I hate going to the feminine needs aisle anywhere.
I’m not embarrassed. I’m not shy. I just hate when that ONE old man in the store ends up looking for Old Spice in that aisle on accident while you painstakingly decide between the supersuper have a happy period Kotex or the heavy/super Always max.
Sigh.
So why all the twat talk? Let’s just say I had to be taken to the doctor by my husband this morning due to…um…complications from the catheter during my surgery.
I swear I’m the only one in the world with an infection in her pee hole from having her thyroid removed. $10 to anyone who can find me someone else.
Anyway, it was doctor day because we then took both kids and they have the ear infection/sinus infection winter blahs with an added bonus of bronchitis for my little princess peanut.
Armed with cranberry pills and orange flavored amoxicillin, I’m ready to announce that Karen over at Swank has been kind enough to, once again, indulge me in a redesign which you, my faithful reader, will get to see very soon.
It’s beeeeeeeeeauuuuuuuuuuuuuutiful, if I do say so myself. The great and powerful Kaiser finally bestowed upon me his time and artistry and whipped up a lil something. Of course he made Sarah’s header eons ago. But I’m not keeping track. Really, I’m not.
The design will also include some very exciting Second Life information about my money making fun in the virtual world. Virtual world, real MONEY.
My business partner and I have been buying and selling virtual real estate and making some bank. Let’s just say our first deal TRIPLED in profit. He’s boy wonder and I’m the eye candy. Because in Second Life I totally get to be eye candy.
The really fun part is I plan on bringing you guys along for the ride. I’m counting on you. The Queen has a virtual castle in which everyone is welcome to talk, surf, ride jetskis, pet the monkeys (I’m not kidding) and meet each other in real time. For real talks. Having real fun. Ask Gidge….she’s living in my castle and having a blast.
You can advertise your blog at my pad. You can network with the likes of Arianna Huffington and Speaker Nancy Pelosi. Or you can go have cybersex with my neighbor. You can even buy land next door and set up your own place and we can all live in one, big, happy, Mommyblogging commune.
We’ve named the island the Isle of Eden, and in honor of my blogging friends I commissioned an AMAZING piece of artwork (because I can do that in second life…) that an amazing female artist painted to represent YOU. YOU my blogging friends. The artist has been reading our blogs (as part of her research) and she made this piece to be the focal point of our virtual girls night out space.
It brings tears to my eyes.
So grab some cranberry juice (just in case) and join me, won’t you? I’ll show you the piece and then we’ll go to an all male review.
Oh! Now I’m really curious 🙂
Eeek. Sorry about your pee-hole.
I would like a second life too…However, I’m afraid if I get involved, I’ll severely ignore my first life and become a dribbling shell.
I don’t think I had a catheter when I had my thyroid surgery. I hope you all feel better very soon!
Also, I just tagged you for a meme. If you don’t do them, disregard.
I’m her Kato Kaelin.
I just lounge around at her place looking Second Life fabulous.
It’s possibly the most fun I’ve had sober in a long time.
I had surgery on my sinuses once, and they inserted the catheter while I was under, and then took it out again while I was under – and no shit – I got an infection. When I went home that very day I was like DAMN! because it hurt to pee. It went on and on and I indulged in cranberry this and that but eventually had to go to the doctor.
So there, they were cutting me FURTHER north on the body and still infected the old pusswah. (that’s french)
Tell you what. If you help me come up with a kick-ass Second Life character name, because I absolutely SUCK at it, I will sign up and come hang out with you there. Deal?
Yeah, I’ve know about Second Life for a looong time, but I must resist, I must because I have an addictive personality to things like that. Sims almost shut my life down. So as much as I wish I could join, argh! I can’t.
I don’t like the feminine aisle either, because I always end up next to the teenager who doesn’t want to look like he’s there for condoms, and I always forget which type of Always I use. So we end up there forever together. And I’m thinking, why doesn’t he just grab his sex utensils and get the freak out of my aisle so I can concentrate damnit.
I promise I will come check out Second Life and hang out with you as soon as my First Life quiets down a little. It’s been a hellish week, and it’s only Tuesday.
nice redo, Queen! Looks smashing!

Ended up with a kidney infection after the catheter when I had my second c-section. That’s when they discovered I actually have a third ureter. Weird huh?
I’m intrigued by your second life life. It seemed all too overwhelming to me when I tried to check it out. Plus, I was too cheap to want to spend real dollars in a fake world. But I’m definitely wanting to know more about it all.
This looks awesome. And I think that it is not that uncommon to get a pee hole infection from catheters. The best place to get sick and die is a hospital. A good portion of the medical staff doesn’t bother washing their hands after using the bathroom. My best friend is a general surgeon and she has some horror stories.
i stopped using the feminine products you can buy in the store a year ago. You might want to try the keeper, which you can get at http://www.gladrags.com or gladrags. they are way cool and super comfy and help us ladies stop having nasty UTI type things and generally keep us deliciously healthy in our beautiful down-theres.
I can’t recommend these products enough!

Your new look is wonderful. Hope your infection clears soon.
Oh my poor sweetie drowing in cranberry juice!!!
I’m so sorry, I’ve been in Mexico and haven’t been following along post-surgery. Now I’m having guilt. And also pity. And also relief that it’s not me (sorry, not fair, I know, but true).
I love the new digs. Beautiful. And I’m going to set aside an appointment for you to teach me second life. Now that I’m done with the doctors and blood draws and bullshit, that is.
Love you, Queenie! 🙂
Site looks great….
poor pee pee
and Second life is my dh’s domain..I don’t want to tread on his toes
I clicked on Isle of Eden. Subscription WTF? I love you, woman, but I don’t subscribe to anything. I am crabby that way.
Then I tried the Queen’s Castle. Firefox no likee. Says it can’t open Second Life because Firefox has no protocol or some shit…I guess I am destined not for 2nd life. How does anyone ever figure that shit out?
Nice redesign! Pretty!
I signed up for Second Life over a year ago, but never got past the “create an avatar” stage.
But I promise, if I get there, I’ll hang out on your island and buy a house. And bury a catheter in the front yard for closure.
I hate the femine hygiene aisle too. Well, actually, no, I am just banned from it at Walmarts in 3 states, LOL.
Hello! Good Site! Thanks you! koqraoifbmnpl
