I had better than usual luck with Theraflu's instant strip whosiwhatsis, the one in the green-blue box rather than the blue box with diphenhydramine. That plus a hot toddy actually made sleep possible for a few hours before I got to the doc for the real cough medicine.
It's just an object. It doesn't mean what you think.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risque (and frisque), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I have been a world-class cougher in my day, and I have found that only codeine, sugar and alcohol work. Hard candy seems to work just as well as cough drops. Sometimes little sips of straight alcohol will stop a coughing fit.
Okay, zenkitty's "little tombstone" story is worse than mine, although this woman has thrown around the "die in a nursing home" statistic. It was just to the patient's niece and sister, not to the patient herself.

Feb. 15 - Police in Fort Worth, Texas, are looking for a crook who needs some help with his spelling.Someone cut a hole in the roof of a Linens and Things Store, then broke into a safe. Police say the thief took cash and left something behind -- a message.
Officers found a partly eaten birthday cake in the store's break room. A note on the bulletin board read: "Happy B-Day, From Ur Friendy Rooftop Boogler."
So far, no arrests have been made.

Happy Birthday, Beverly! May the coming year be as wonderful as you are. And may there be lots of zero-calorie pie, too.

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?
Happy Birthday, Beverly!!!!
I'm finally putting away the Christmas decorations.
I never even put any up because of my laziness. I think I have you beat.
shrift & Fay in Chicago? That would be happy-making. Sit back and picture: shrift, Fay, brenda m, aurelia, Kalshane, tommyrot and Kathy A. all in one place. Add in SA and Sail (she's close enough to drive down). I'll take pictures and post them, I promise.

I'm all for more Buffistas in the Chicago area! Not that I need more excuses to go down to visit, but every little bit helps.

Hey we made it up to Tahoe intact. It only took 9 hours. (usually its a 3.5 hour trip)
However, now that we're up here we're having fun with snowball fights and poker. Sledding begins at 3pm.

Afternoon, all. Cold here too. I'm making homemade chicken soup - smells iniony but good.
So, let me ask: I REALLY don't want to leave the house anymore today. Got my period, have cramps, it's FUCKING cold, and....I've been out a lot lately.
But I'm supposed to maybe see the boy tonight.
Do y'all think it's too early for an "in" date? Like, come over, have some soup or something, bring a DVD, and I'll maybe make popcorn? I mean, is it too soon for such a thing?
This is why I hate dating. What are the fucking rules? Or standards, or list of faux pas, or SOMETHING!
