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.

Not having has never been the thing I've regretted most in my life. Not trying is.

What is even happening?
eta: I'm not sure about the pipe, Cindy. There is corrosion. I guess I'll clean it off and see if there are any leaks.Be careful. Open a window, and maybe just use plain water to clean?
Yay on de-Christmasing! I thought we were the only people left with a tree up. Stephen is promising to do it today. We shall see. The lure of football is strong, apparently.
We spent New Year's Day ripping up the carpet in the dining room and hallway, and decided we wanted to keep the tree up through Ephiphany, anyhow. Last weekend we were just too flat out to take it down and put it away. The game he most cares about starts at 4:30, so he's still got a few minutes. He's putting the last set of boxes up in the attic, now. I've got to start supper, but I'm not sure how I'm going to drag them away from the game, to get them to eat. Hmmm. Maybe we'd better talk about that, before I cook for no reason.
Phenergan is just a powerful anti-nausea drug, not a painkiller.
Maybe I didn't get it, or maybe they did give me Nubain or something, then. I only got the shot with Ben's delivery. They were too late, altogether with Chris, to even start my epi, and they started and immediately shut off my epi, with Julia. I loved the shot, whatever it was.
Is Demorol the thing they give you as a shot in the ass, pre-surgery?

Because books.
(The antimalarials we were given in India were actually a very close cousin of what I was already on for lupus.)
What do you take, Jess, if you don't mind me asking? My mom has been taking Immuran (sp? it's the anti-rejection drug patients get after transplants) for a long time, but they're thinking of switching that. Other that that it's drugs that work more for specific symptoms and side effects than for the lupus itself.

I was on Plaquinel for about 6 years, but tapered off about 4 years ago since I'd been asymptomatic for so long. Right now I'm not on anything, but my OB's been doing monthly blood tests just in case.
I forget the name of the antimalarial -- some other relative of quinine. Possibly started with an H.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Phenergan is just a powerful anti-nausea drug, not a painkiller.And sleepy-making. And I love that shit.

Yay on asymptomatic, Jess. That's a very good thing.
I don't think Mom has ever taken Plaquinel. I think her lupus is mostly in remission now, which is the reason the new rheumatologist wants to wean her off the Immuran.

And sleepy-making. And I love that shit.Maybe I did get it, then, because I did sleep, after I got whatever shot.

Remission is a fine, fine thing.
I was also on Prednisone, but never for more than two weeks at a time. (And it was nice to be able to, you know, stand up and dress myself, but talk about your whacked out side effects -- I don't think I've ever been hungrier or bitchier in my life.)

I found out that Demoral makes me throw up (a lot) and Phenergan makes me feel twitchy and like I have bugs crawling under my skin (for hours) in the same weekend. It was not a fun weekend.

Actually, I've seen people turn old card catalogs into wine racks -- just take the drawers out completely, and voila! A wine bottle fits perfectly! I so totally want one, but I have no place to put it.
