Huh. I actually bought clementines for the first time yesterday. I'm totally prescient.
I like frisson and darkling.

Spike's Bitches 34: They're All Slime and Antlers
[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.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
they're estimating a 75% loss of the citrus and avocado crop.Talked to my dad today and their neighbor's avocado grove has serious frost damage. Their trees are younger than my parent's so we are hoping that my parent's trees will be okay. It got down to 17 degrees. Teh hell?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Cholesterol lowering drugs also lower the amount of CoQ10 iin the body. CoQ10 is necessary for a lot of things, including making energy and keeping the heart healthy and keeping LDL cholesterol from oxidizing. Someone taking statins should also be taking lots of supplemental CoQ10. Heck, I do, and I'm not even on statins.

No, he took the results with him to work, because he was taking it with him to his appointment, but they were both listed as borderline high.

This isn't quite what I'd call Jilliesque, but now I really need proper Jilli wrapping paper.

30 degrees this morning in Pasadena
This morning I had to take side streets into work through Manhattan Beach. There was frost/ice on roofs, lawns and cars. The worst was the ice in the gutters. CRAZY! Below 32 in in beachy LA? BRRRR!
75% loss of the citrus and avocado crop
Strawberries too.. very sad! The estimates I saw were a total loss of all Valencia oranges, and 70 to 75% of the navel oranges and lemons. A lot of the oranges in markets in the US come from CA so grab 'em now, 'cause in a couple of weeks they might be hard to find.

See, "borderline" is really iffy. My cholesterol is borderline high, but despite my family history, age, and big fat ass, my doctor hasn't put me on meds. He most definitely isn't blowing it off, either; I have my cholesterol tested every 6 months. But for now he thinks I'm fine w/o meds.
TCG really, truly might be fine w/o meds.
t edit I know you're just concerned because you love him, which is as it should be. But depending on what the numbers are, he really might not need meds.
