Tara: What's so bad about them coming here? Aren't they good guys? I mean, Watchers, that's just like whole other Gileses, right? Buffy: Yes! They're scary and horrible!

I'm getting the pig!

It's never come up. Since it's obvious I'm doing it, I hope that means they haven't missed it as a cause.

It was just a thought that popped into my head a while back and I kept meaning to ask.

Liese clearly rocks.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

New natter! Maybe I can keep up this time!

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

At this point I'm willing to accept and reject anything as a possible cause, simultaneously.

Good god, I hope I have assistants for today's first class.

Mention it. Doctors are not always big on common sense or seeing the obvious.

When do I stop mentioning, though? I've not seen any mention anywhere of hair dyes being related to migraines, which is why I'd rely on them to mention it.

I have a million environmental factors, just like anyone else. I sift via stuff I've read about.

When the pain stops, I'm afraid.

Every year I pack away the winter clothes without much care and every year when the chill returns, I'm stuck doing a ton of laundry. Fleece and thick layerings take up way too much room in the washer, dang it. I think I just started the 8th load of laundry.

A point. Part of me thinks given how long this situtation has gone on that you might sit down and make a list of every bit of your environment (to the extent that you know it) - home, work, Krav everything. List every chemical you are exposed to, anything no matter how absurd - just in case they can spot something.

I would be surprised to find a doctor who had time to go through such an exhaustive list from many of their patients.

Keeping a headache diary covers some of the same territory, and I know she's not going to read the whole thing. It's way long.

No, I'm going to put my trust in a couple specialists and keep an eye on mentions in the news. I don't think there's a point getting that granular with my environment when you consider all the things I'm sure to leave out anyway, due to ignorance.

Probably not. I just wish someone could solve this. Not near as badly as you do though.

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

Nicole, it's not allowed to be cold there until the end of October, at the earliest.

I managed to record two minutes of this week's House and 58 minutes of something else. Does anyone want to recap anything important for me?
