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

Aiee! SkindeepLA!

I came into work. Yay, me.

I've had the low blood pressure falling down thing (well, usually sagging) before. If this was that, it was much more intense, because normally my brain is all there -- I just can't see or keep my knees from buckling. This time, I came to with my face on the floor. And I still don't remember what I was doing before it happened.

I'll call my doctor after 9. I suspect it won't amount to anything -- shit's random. If it goes another 17 years between this and the next time I keel over for no apparent reason, I won't complain.

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

Is there somewhere at work you can get your bp taken?

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

How amused am I that the First Class labels from the new self serv postage machines at the Post Office say "FCM" on the top? so very amused.

This day is going so well. My cheese tastes funny.

I have 3 different people asking me for 4 different things, none of which are on my already full to do list.

Can someone please explain to folks that the week BEFORE the event is not where you add new things that you think would be "fun" or "cool" or ANYTHING.

You didn't use your finger to pick wax out of your ear before eating your cheese, did you?

Also, did anyone move it?

Um, is it evil when your employer decides to eliminate family benefits for all employees? Just checking.

If it's not evil, I'd say it's an indication that your employer is having serious financial problems, so either way, the resume is a good idea.

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

I have a question about kids and medical care, spurred by this week's House, but related to questions raised, I think, by Jack & Bobby earlier. How old is old enough? It seems kinda weird that a doctor can say to a twelve year old "You need an abortion." and she gets to consent without informing anyone. Does she need an abortion? Is she going to insist on a second opinion? Okay, I'm not saying that 12 year olds should be mothers -- but that's not the point. How must is must? If that recommendation had been presented to an adult, I'd think there'd be more discussion, not just "Oh, okay."

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

ita, imitrex can cause lightheadedness so maybe you had a lot of meds floating around in your bloodstream. Losing consciousness like that happened to me with combining Imitrex and benadryl once. Scary.
