Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
JJL would be great playing you, erika.
I totally hear you all with the "why did I just get myself more work??" because I did it recently, too. Luckily, they wanted me for the whole day, but I have an appt at 11, so I can sleep in, work part of Friday, and some Sunday, and be good to go.
I think I had a point when I started typing that post. Now I think I just want to be in a cool air-conditioned bar.
Of course, I told myself if I got freelance work this month, I'd buy new glasses, but I just got an email from my favorite store about their summer stuff being on sale, and I WANT IT.
Worst pain: Getting my cystic acne injected.
Worst pain: Mostly digestive, I gotta say. Apart from something emotional.
Mostly digestive, I gotta say.IBS. Turns out I don't like Demerol though. Made me paranoid.
I should really stop pretending to work today. I just built a graphic for this Web site. Hi-res vector. D'oh. Rastering the motha now. [Translation: I wrote something! In Portugeuse. For the Elbownians. D'oh! Dilberting the pretty words now.]
Car accident featuring: fractured coccyx while laying on a back board (I was literally sitting in the hospital moaning, "my ass! my ass!" because I was pretty out of it) and no pain meds for the first few days since I had liver lacerations.
The cauterizing of the nostril - this would be to prevent or stop too much bleeding?
That is correct.
I've never heard of cauterizing a nostril before. And it sounds awful.
It is indeed awful. And being a well-read 10 y.o. I knew what cauterizing meant, though I presumed that it would involve local anesthetics and maybe some electrical device. Not the doctor having the nurse hold my arms down, while he dipped a q-tip in a big jar of highly caustic chemical and then stick it up my nose. And then...while I was trembling with pain and rage...he did it to my other nostil. It was between the two that I had to Not!Punch him with great effort.
There was some screaming at my Mom later, and feelings of Betrayal and Mistrust of the Medical People.

Awww, poor bon bon's broken butt. You had a cracked ass, man.
Youch!
The sales tax here at 6.5% seemed like a deal after seeing 9.75% in upstate NY. We don't have any income tax in Florida, but my real estate taxes are a killer. Last year $7000. I think tax free is this week. I need to go school shopping quick.
