Robin it says here you are forbidden to have plastic surgery anyway as you are (and I quote): "Already perfect in every particular."
Sweetie, we're crooks. If everything were right, we'd be in jail.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
We got one of those in the actual mail at work one day, which seems pretty dumb, since going through the PO makes it a huge crime
I reported the one I got to the FBI. It was a fun call. I was all, "um, maybe I watch too much teevee, but mail fraud is a Federal Offense, right?"
The agent laughed and seemed a good enough fellow.

Anyone have any miracle burn treatment tips? I got a bad steam burn on my finger cooking dinner and I can't make it stop hurting. I ran it under cold water first, then tried that wound ointment stuff with the pain killer in it - no dice. Then I had it soaking in a baking soda paste for a long time, which works for a little while and then stops. Then I went to the store and got solarcaine, which is doing nothing.
It's not blistering, or even very red or swollen, but it hurts like a mo-fo.

Try morphine, that's good for pain.
Uh...I'd wrap it tight with a bandaid and try a double vodka tonic, chased with three Motrin. That's my best advice short of actual narcotics.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I just hold an ice cube to a small burn like that.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
No miracles, unfortunately, but just make up a bowl with water and some ice (not frostbite level, just enough so it will stay cold) and just leave it in there a while. It won't hurt while it's in the cold water, and eventually those neurons give up on firing quite so much.

It's finally starting to fade a bit. The big problem was that I was trying to go to bed early tonight and I couldn't sleep with the finger throbbing - or, as it turns out, with it in a precariously balanced bowl of baking soda goop. I'm going to go try again now. Wish me luck.

I've eaten too many tamarind balls tonight, AIFG.

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

Whee!
I just taught another good class. Now, to sleep an entire night through. I think I've earned it.
