[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.

I'm trying. Thanks, Nora.

ION, could potassium loss due to how long I've been on the steroids be causing horrible leg cramps? I can hardly walk the cramps are so bad in both legs. I can't think of any other reason why this would be happening.

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

We often blame potassium for just that, vw. Gatorade and bananas are the recommended medication.

Gatorade and bananas. Check. Will pick some up on the way to school.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

I hate feeling manipulated by the airlines... I checked on a flight between Heathrow and Edinburgh on Expedia, and the R/T was $130, and then I checked a couple other itineraries, decided that the one I originally thought of was the best, went to select that, and a message came up, "We're sorry, the price of this flight has changed from $129.82 to $179.82" and I got so mad. I looked around quickly, saw I wasn't gonna do any better than $180, went back to Expedia, and clicked on the flight I wanted but it was back down to $130. So I bought it lickety split, and didn't wait for the final OK from Tom (though he'd been positive about it before the price change) because he's all, I don't know, working and stuff, and I got all tense and stressed and am nervous that I was stupid to buy the tickets and Tom will be pissed at me for not waiting till he had a moment to weigh in again.

But, it is good for us, time-wise, and I think it's good to potentially save $100. Even the $180 was (slightly) cheaper than Orbitz and the BMI direct site.

I just hate feeling all feverish and flustered about that stuff.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Nora, for future reference, when shopping around for airfares, you might want to clear your cache before jumping back and forth between travel sites. Or use separate browser windows.

Wow. Although, I was paranoid that was the case, and switched to a differnet browser when I investigated BMI's direct fares. Though, I don't know what info that browser had on me.

Yeah, so I rejected the more expensive price 3 times and then it went back to the original price.

Thanks for the link. Confirms my paranoia at least.

Just went to a third browser that I rarely use, and cleared the cache and cookies, and tried the same info on Expedia and got the original price that I paid, so phew.

move out and draw fire

From earlier, chiming in with agree-age on:

I, and every other woman who used to be a teenage girl thank you and apologize.

You rock, MG.

I've been swearing at travel sites all day. Trying to get my sister out here to visit, and sites keep saying "Oh yeah, here's a good price...but PSYCH! not for those dates! Or any other."
