[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.

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

Meara, it is decidedly possible that your migraines are related to hormones, either yours or the ones in the pills. I'd ask a doctor.

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

hmm. I need some reassurances for my logical mind... our bathroom scale has been up in our guest/third floor bathroom. I don't get in there very much anymore due to houseguest, but I did get in a few weeks ago and weigh myself (and was pleased to see that the 5 pounds I took off last February were still off); this reading was corroborated by a weigh in I had at the nutritionist's office a couple weeks later.

Today, our guest is not here now, so I sneak into the bathroom, notice that the scale has been shoved so that it's up on its side... I grab it, put it down in another room, and weigh myself, and it says that I'm 10 pounds heavier. I mean, that's because of the scale calibration being fucked up by SOMEONE shoving it aside to make room for her own bounteous amounts of CRAP, right? My clothes fit the same and I really have been keeping track of what I've been eating... maybe not enough to LOSE weight, but certainly enough to NOT GAIN 10 pounds in 2 weeks.

Scale calibration, right? I mean, logically I know it must be, but I need reassurance.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Totally scale calibration. I have to recalibrate my (cheap) scale almost every time I use it, because things will just throw it off.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Yeah. Scale calibration. Especially if it's the kind with the turning dial, rather than a digital display, or if it's a kind of cheap one.

Ann, that's a ferret.

meara, I got nothing. Except to realize that my previous suggestion seems useless.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

so I drive home through a very narrow, twisty canyon. I kinda like it. and I usually drive speed limit to plus 5. Yesterday - I was passed by someone on my right. Very unlawful. as in a two lane road with only occassional passing zones and a few turnouts. I thought 'asshole. please don't bloke the canyon' and thought no more about it.

Today I was passed again . on the right. in a much narrower strech of canyon. by a car that I believe was the same damn car. It was closer to the end of the road, so I might have caught up with them at the light . I may have a partial plate.

The crazy is making me angry. ( no, I won't chase them. But I will be watching)

I just showed this to the Devilbunny, and we're both confused. What should Clovis be seeing here?

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

Okay, I have NO idea how that happened, but you and Clovis should look again.
