So, how was your summer? Mine was fun. Saw some fish. Went mad with hunger. Hallucinated a whole bunch.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I take Lamictal and Seroquel at night. Would it be bad if I took an over the counter sleep medicine.

I'd talk to your doctor first. Since Seroquel is somewhat sedating, adding another drug into the mix that also slows down your CNS might be too much. Then again, it might be fine -- but I'd check with a medical professional on that.

Ouch! Poor Joe.

Askye, you've been doing really well, so please remind yourself that this is, in the grand scheme of things, a small (if exceedingly annoying for you) slip. And, what Teppy said.

It's so annoying, this lack of coverage/high cost for medicines.

VW, excellent letter.

Most, he added, are under 40, women who as recently as a year ago would no more have thought of buying a slip than of wearing a hoop skirt.

I'd consider a hoop skirt before a slip, unless I was wearing the slip as a dress instead of an undergarment. As I know more than one woman under 40 who'd say the same, I had to blink and reset my brain to the not-goth, not-SCA, not-RenFaire set.

If this means half the skirts I find in the stores are going to need a slip, I'ma be seriously pissed.

If I only had a brain...

I wear petticoats and half-slips whenever I'm wearing a skirt that would otherwise stick to my legs. Full slips, not so much.

In my youth there was the bra-slip, which made more sense.

What is even happening?

I wore a hoop skirt to my prom and I'd do it, again.

I'm wearing a slip right now -- er, a half-slip, actually. I figure a cotton skirt (it's 60 degrees here today) runs too big of a risk of being see-through.

Mostly lurking...

I haven't heard from work yet. Should I:

(a) Call to make sure he got the e-mail?

(b) E-mail and say I'm on my way in and we can discuss it when I get in?

(c) Wait?

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Morning All!

Just skipped 14 Brazilian messages so I could share the news that, after a week long Comedy of Errors with my postal carrier, I received a package last night with a brand new tiara! Thanks soo much juliana! It's beautiful! I wore it to my dance class last night, to many compliments. All the other goodies are awesome too! Especially the Smart Cookie - it's so cute. And I'm not at all bitter that its answer to my first question was "You ask too many questions." Ha!

Thanks again!

So, how's everybody? ::rests chin on hand, waits expectantly::

Thrive to spite them

Teppy -- thanks for the advice! The dr's office just called me back to get more information and my chart is going to be pulled and put in front of my doctor. I tried to stress that I can't afford a prescription right now at all in hopes that they'll give me some samples.

I asked about combining my meds with OTC sleep aides and she recommended I talk to the pharmacist.

It's going to be a long evening. I have to go home and collect up all the stuff I need to return and then run around town and do that and go to the pharmacist. Make dinner, etc. I'll try to make time for a bath with Dreamtime and Waving not drowning.

I really need to wash my sheets as well.

Ple-- thanks for the encouragement. I keep having to look at how much I'm doing and I'm only sabotaging my self a little bit (getting to work late) but I'm aware of it and now I can change it.

As for slips -- I wear one with certain skirts. It's a full slip and I kind of lking wearing it, although if I had to wear a slip all the time I might feel differently.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

(a) Call to make sure he got the e-mail?

I would chose this one.
