(runs off with all the buttercream, since no one else seems to appreciate it)
I've been out of the abbey two days, I've beaten a lawman senseless, I've fallen in with criminals. I watched the captain shoot the man I swore to protect. And I'm not even sure if I think he was wrong.

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.
Chiming in on the crappy day front, although for me it's just a cold and a headache. Somehow headaches don't feel like a "just" when I'm having one.
Megan, I hope the beer helps.

If I only had a brain...
I went to my physical therapist, who pointed out that I'm walking around all slanted with my left shoulder up.
We did more exercises. Then she did my shoulder with the zappy electric thing: tape on electrodes, put an ice bag, walk away and leave me to twitch for 15 minutes. Anybody know what the zappy twitchy thing is? She calls it "ice and stim", if that helps.

I'm in that stage where I know what I want to do with the next 5-10 years of my life, but I'm not entirely sure how to get there from here. Very distracting.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
We're having an early spring on account of unseasonable warmth. This means things are blooming, pollen counts are up, and my already stuffed and irritated sinuses are even more stuffed an irritated. Joy.

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

Electrical stimulation therapy is the process. I've never thought of the machine as anything other than a stimulator.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

My mom had it done (several times) after her car accident, but I forget what it's called.

Sounds like she was using an EMS unit.

the machine as anything other than a stimulator.
A TENS machine?

No, not TENS; I asked. "Electrical stimulation therapy" worked in a Google; I couldn't find the thing before, and now I can. Thanks, all.
