i think aaron is okay. i don't think he's passed it yet (i told him to call me during the action and to hold the receiver up to his "port" so i could hear the jagged little nugget pass through to the sunlit region. i have my fingers triple crossed that he'll pass that little fucker today.

in general, i haven't had to deal with the kidney stones before (fortunately) so i have no idea how much they hurt but i'd imagine the answer is "A LOT" though he's dealt with this before so maybe he needs to take a hint and really change his diet and whatever else so that he doesn't have to put more shows in the question zone with something as bullshit as his "health." i mean, come on!

for some reason i still have this positive feeling in my mind that it'll work out and he'll pass it before then and we'll get to play but that's probably going to be my downfall.

to be continued...
