Spike's Bitches 21 Gunn Salute  

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

What does the rash look like, Susan?

Little red or pink raised bumps, some circular, some irregular.

This is the most fungal discussion I think we've ever had.

And I'll probably regret it as TMI eventually. OTOH, I've got a reasonable hypothesis to present to the doctor, which I always prefer. I know some docs hate that, but it probably would've taken me twice as long to get tested for mono back in '99 if I hadn't already researched it and decided it was the best match for my symptoms. Because the doctor just didn't believe a 28-year-old could have it.

It's not a competition, Lilty.

What is even happening?

Really? I know a few people who had mono in their twenties. Dh had it, right before we met. He was about 26.

Because the doctor just didn't believe a 28-year-old could have it.

And my doctor didn't belive a 20-year-old didn't have it, when I came down with the flu in college.

Bwah! Can I tag that? (I know it's from Mission Hill, but since you brought it to my attention, I'd love your blessing.)

But of course!

I know a few people who had mono in their twenties.

My 41 year old sister is just getting over mono. The doc thinks she didn't get enough of a dose to have an immunity when she was younger. And then one of her kids became a carrier, so she was exposed to it in a big way, swapping slobbery kisses with her 4 year old.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

swapping slobbery kisses with her 4 year old.

Aha!

Um, not sure of my point. But ...

Aha!

This is only an exhibition. Please, no wagering.

"You see? THAT's what they want. Love, and a bit with a dog."

I know, -t, and I really am happy for him...but...my baby brother! I lived at home for two years after school! And I only moved into a crappy apartment five miles away from my parents house. He's home for 6 months and now he's a Portfolio Accountant!

He's going to work in a building that he needs to scan an ID to even go in the door! I'm wearing sweatpants and there is no edible food in my fridge! None of my clothes are clean! I'm going to die alone!

Hyperventilates in corner.

But no, not a competition.

Aha!

This is the kind of schadenfraude that will bite your ass in a few years.
