Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

[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.

What is even happening?

the bedtime routine is easier with the Going to Bed Book.

Love! That's been off our rotation for a long time, now. I wonder if I can remember it.

The sun has set, not long ago.
Now everybody goes below,
to take a bath in one big tub,
with soap all over.
Scrub scrub scrub.
They hang their towels on the wall,
and find pajamas BIG and small.
With some on top
and some beneath,
they brush and brush
and brush their teeth
And when the moon is on the rise
they all go up,
to exercise!
Then down once more
but not so fast
they're on their way to bed
at last!
The day is done.
They say, "Good night."
Then somebody turns off the light.
The moon is high.
The sea is deep.
They rock, and rock, and rock
to sleep.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Also, psychopharmacologist has too many syllables.

"Psychopharmacology," which has the same number, has enough syllables to fill an entire line of a Bif Naked song.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Hmmm, it looks like there are all sorts of possible bad side effects - quite a few of them stomach related. I've been feeling kind of nausaus. Should I stop taking the pills? It's past closing time for the clinic today -- so I can't phone them up 'til Monday.

We have misplaced a bunch of our SB books. It makes me so sad. I love them so much.

sumi, are the pills for pain?

It's nice to see some brave pretenders trying to make it interesting.

I love But Not the Hippopotamus.

My friend's do the 10 Minutes to Bedtime (Peggy Rathmann), but I've read the Going to Bed book too.

It's an anti-inflammatory - generic Daypro. Some of the side effects include heart attacks, ulcers and other very nasty things.

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

Some of the side effects include heart attacks, ulcers and other very nasty things.

Most drug's side effects include earthshattering stuff. My assumption is that if they were likely, I'd not have been prescribed it, and if they're unlikely I may very well get killed on the way to the pharmacy.

It's the more middle of the road side effects (nausea, weight loss/gain, etc) I pay attention to, and even then only well after I've been taking it for a while, because I don't trust myself not to make stuff up.

If you take them, take them with food (and milk, if you can and do drink it) -- like a meal's amount of food.

What's up with the heart attack warning? Well, they do always put everything in the warnings. I remember reading the side-effects list on my first birth control prescription. I'm still trying to work out, all these years later, just how exactly death falls under 'side-effect'.
