Oh, I get it. You just don't like who did the rescuing, that's all. Wishin' I was your boyfriend what's-his-height. Oh wait, he's run off.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Happy Birthday, Cindy!

Who thinks that those collagen-inflated lips look better than the natural variety, anyway? Aside from porn starlets, I mean.

I know. I think "grouper" lips would be a more accurate description than "bee-stung". Yechh.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Do you have more info on radioactive-making thyroid things?

I do know a lot about it. There's two things they do: 1)Radioactive iodine uptake scans where they scan the body for thyroid cells with a very low dose of radiation and 2)radioactive iodine treatment where they kill thyroid cells with a very high dose of radiation.

I've had the first kind three or four times and the second kind once. Anything specific you want to know?

What is even happening?

Jesse, does she have Graves disease? They sometimes ablate (I think that's the word--kill) the thyroid, in Graves disease patients, and the patients are radioactive for a few days after, I think. I'm trying to remember. Two daughters of a friend of ours have had this done, one fairly recently.

Thanks for all the birthday wishes. My mum's having us to dinner tonight, and I have a sneaking suspicion I'll be able to clear off the last two episodes of A:ts S5, off my TiVo.

Awww, man, why did Maggie O'Connell need ass-fat in her lips

It's a sin. She was given a beautiful face. It would have aged well, and with character, retaining the beauty. It's just wrong.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Mick Jagger?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Mick Jagger?

People with the poor taste to date Mick Jagger?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Here is what I know: I heard through the family grapevine that my aunt had "something done," that she was fine, but radioactive enough that she had to stay home from work (at a school) for a week. I heard earlier some thing about her thyroid, so I thought maybe it was connected. Stupid family grapevine. I should just call her myself! Cindy's Graves disease thing sounds most likely.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Hey! No Dissin' Bowie!

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

Well, the reason for the digit in evil was because I don't think it's evil at all. I just can't find a word. Less of a threat? A person with one, I mean. Whatever that might result in them being less regulated.

Except for the sawn off ones, that have the hella wide spread.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Happy Birthday Cindy!
