I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

[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.

Did they tell you anything useful at all, vw?

Just that my doctor is right in her diagnosis, I didn't need to go to the ER (I could have followed up in the office this morning), and it'll be four to six weeks before I'm feeling better. Then, when I begged, and swore I wasn't a junky, they gave me painkillers.

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.

smites vw's ER doctors with shin splints and butt boils - painful ones

All is well that ends in pizza.

Oooh. Trust.

I believe this is a good thing.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Fuck fuck fuck. It's my boss's birthday and I meant to stop at Lush on the way home last night and pick something up and I forgot all about it. Must now scramble around and figure something out.

I got the distinct impression that your doc was wanting you to go to the ER, quite possibly for the purpose of getting you some pain relief faster than she herself would be able to get a hard copy of a script for teh goooooood drugs to your pharmacy. And maybe to double-check that nothing else was going on. If the ER staff made you feel stupid for cooperating with her scheme, thpppbbbbbbt to them.

When she is rested enough to grok what happened, she will be very, very grateful.

This was my impression as well. Oh, well. It's over now. I'll deal with the clinic from here on out.

Has anyone here heard much about the K Street Project?

Ann, that's a ferret.

Daniel, you might want to check out the Talking Points blog. It's been following the K Street Project -- and the corruption issues rising out of it -- for some months now.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Oh, vw, what a frustrating and miserable day yesterday. I'm so glad you had knitters and church folk around to pet and comfort you.

Has anyone here heard much about the K Street Project?

Bits and pieces over the last year on NPR, Salon and such. Unbelievably unpleasant. It would sound like the most ravingly paranoid, over-the-top GOP-hating-and-fearing conspiracy theory ever, except for the part where it's all completely true.
