Kat, now I wanna go "Nerd! - Other nerd!" instead of "pervert!"
I'll be in my bunk.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
Wait, aren't you in Chicago?? Don't you have, like, cold winters there? I have them every winter.
I get a little bit (whitefonted for slight eww) of blood when I blow my nose in the winter, sometimes, but that's it.
Kalshane - how manay weeks along is your GF? Also, good luck on the ultrasound!
She's about four months along right now, though the doctor thinks how far along she was might have been misjudged in her initial visit and she might be a few weeks further along in reality. It's one of the things we're supposed to find out for sure tomorrow.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Rare Book Librarian showed up with a nice cart of books. AMAZINGLY (at least to me) these were all books that dated from 1740-1790 and they let any schmoo who is willing to fork over her ID to handle them.
That's incredibly cool.

::waves the flag for OTC saline nasal spray, which in addition to helping prevent nosebleeds and warding off colds, will probably cure global warming AND balance the budget::

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Man, sometimes you feel something on your face that's moving too fast to be caught in air currents.
Then you kill it, because that's how insects learn about personal space.
Wait...
But if she punches him in the arm, will he punch her back in the arm?
Depends on if she's on drugs or not.

Ann, that's a ferret.
I have the same problem, Kalshane. Sometimes more than a little bit. I'm told it may have something to do with a nick inside the nose . Cauterization has been suggested.
(whitefonted for the same reason)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Fred, whatever you do, don't listen to anyone named B who says to self-cauterise with vinegar. Later, he'll backtrack and say he meant pickle juice, and that he told you to wait until some time after the nosebleed, but IT DOESN'T MATTER.
DON'T DO IT.

Ann, that's a ferret.
ita, I just tend to deal. Unfortunately, the winter vacation somewhere warm isn't happening this year, so I can't rely on that.

"You can't put a price on the joy of not giving a shit." -Zenkitty
When it gets really dry here in the winter -- and by dry I mean that you can hear the air make a slurping noise the moment you walk outside, sucking out your fluids like a water reclamation suit and turning you into a wizened, crackly-haired husk -- I will get nosebleeds, and my skin gets so papery thin and chalky that it will split if you look at it wrong.
Time I think to guzzle another liter of water!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Do we have any Buffistas near Fairfield, CT? How much of a pain is it to get there from, say, NYC?
