GALLSTONES!!!

It's official! I have GALLSTONES!!!

Excellent timing... at the exact time that we need to be moving, I won't be able to lift anything or do anything because I'll be recovering from surgery :(

Well played.... WELL PLAYED! (wipes forehead) Glad it was, well, okay, that's something major, but glad it wasn't butt gremlims with suicide bombs.

We have not yet completely ruled out the Butt Gremlins... I didn't get the vaccination this year :(

I can probably volunteer to transport a few randomly-timed carloads of stuff...

I told you not to eat all of Gall's stones. He worked hard on those stones. You told me you would not touch his stones and what do you do you go and eat all of Gall's stones. Now they are stuck in our butt. I hope your happy and now you owe Gall an apology for eating all his stones.
On a side note, taken from wikipedia:

Value
Gallstones are a valuable by-product of meat processing, fetching up to US$32–per–gram in their use as a purported antipyretic and antidote in the herbal medicine of some cultures, particularly in China. The finest gallstones tend to be sourced from old dairy cows, which are called Niu-Huang (yellow thing of oxen) in Chinese. Those obtained from dogs, called Gou-Bao (treasure of dogs) in Chinese, are also used today. Much as in the manner of diamond mines, slaughterhouses carefully scrutinize offal department workers for gallstone theft.

...who said you can't make diamonds in your butt.

Timing certainly does suck.

Good luck in finding some locals to help move.

Well, glad it's not a heart thing or that fog that turns people inside out. I volunteer for some moving, though I have to be reminded to lift smart and not stupid. Just let us know when, maybe we can trade me for Molly for short bursts of box moving.
