So that's my dream. That and some stuff about cigars and a tunnel.

I think there is a canker sore epidemic-- call Dr. House!

You know it's going to get a LOT worse before it gets better if he's on the case (IF it gets better). Probably with seizures.

Now tagless for your comfort.

My sister had lots of canker sores and her doctor recommended lysine. She had to eat more chicken (or take a suppliment) and the sores went away pretty quickly.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Eat more chicken. OK. Any other lysine sources?

Relatedly, something that has been bothering me all weekend: when I was a kid, I was made to gargle salt water for my canker sores. I haven't tried it since because 1. paintful and 2. I can't figure out why gargling with salt water would help. It would be quicker than attempting five applications of Zylactin or whatever. Does anyone know? I mean, we don't typically put salt on wounds!

Shit's all sorts of different now.

I was told the salt would dry the canker sore out.

Me too. Probably just rinsing would have the same effect, since I think it's getting the salt water on the sores that helps (if it in fact does), not getting it into your throat. I hear you on the painful (and also, just tastes nasty) though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You know we need a spinal tap, right??

Or you could save the day, and take it in October...

Dude, I have Many Days. I have accrued a week of leave and have taken a day and a half.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

no spinal tap. I am having a lemon/honey halls that I found. Not sure that counts as sour.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Dude, I have Many Days.

Oh, in that case, never mind.

I wonder how long I will continue to be shocked and awed about the amount of leave time I have in this job?
