On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

[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.

Birthdays are best when the gift-giving and festivities are spread out over time, and not all crammed into one day.

Oh, I'm totally down with the extended birthday trick. I didn't say I was disappointed. She's making her own fret.

JZ! Stop that that right now! You're making a whole other person, isn't that enough to keep you busy?

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Listen to the Fairy Gothmother. Besides, homemade fret does not go well at all with clams and carrot cake.

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

I got the all clear from the cardiologist. The up side is, of course, cardiac health and the possibility that I can be prescribed Cymbalta. The down side is...apparently I'm as healthy as a horse. Who gets multiple daily migraines.

Ah, well. I'll see the headache specialist in a couple weeks. I'd hoped sooner, but what can you do? She gave me this test pack of Provigil which cut right through the hangover I get every morning from the night's Neurontin/Elavil cocktail. I can be even morninger a person!

Did I kill the thread?

Okay, then I'll bore you all with my bounciness. My friend A. is over here now working on rewriting her resume and cover letter to send out in the morning. I'M SO EXCITED! I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS IS HAPPENING! It would be a dream come true to teach in the same school with her--I can't even tell you.

ETA: Oops! X-post with ita. Glad you got a clean bill of health. Not so glad you're still in the dark about the migraines.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Apparently, I get bupkiss.
What kind of kiss is this? ::consults pocket kink guide::

This may have been posted elsewhere, but there's a new treatment called Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation that has started clinical trials. Hopefully, the early results will hold up, and the device could, at some point, provide you with relief.

Congratulations on the cardiac all-clear!

For a second I read that as "started clitoral trials", and boy did that change the rest of this passage.

This may take me a while to shake off.

t blink, blink

Yeah, still dazed.
