Whoo, look at Teppy go on the late night ice cream assault team.

Got it, ate it, full tummy, 3 a.m. now. Must force self to sleep....

Anybody still up? I'm working on a design and digging through music.

You could say that. How's things?

ita is clearly dating Chuck Norris.

Chuck Norris would totally do that.

Weekend meara…

I want to say it was something like Fenergan?

Phenergan is just a powerful anti-nausea drug, not a painkiller.

It is very often used along with a painkiller, though, to keep of the nausea. Also, there’s some research (I think…if I’m remembering correctly), that it can really increase the effectiveness of certain painkillers for migraines.

I don't come out of full anesthesia well. It takes many many hours longer than estimated, and I vomit like crazy while still under. I guess that might be morphine? Whatever, no full anesthesia for me again as I'm likely to code.

Me either. And as someone who was born with a partial cleft lip and had to have 13 surgeries before the age of 16, then two courses of ECT a few years ago, you learn the cocktail necessary to keep this from happening. Thankfully, they’ve come a long ways in anesthesiology.

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.

Mine is coming down today. I hope. That’s the plan anyway. Mom and dad’s is still up and probably not coming down till at least next weekend.

Prednisone is a nasty, nasty drug, but it does the job for some things.

So very, very true. I’m terrified of it, but it’s also saved my life on several occasions. I could just live without the steroid myopathy, well, forever. I know breathing is necessary, but that was sucktacular.

I don't mean to discount her fears. But bolting is how she deals with fear and it's costing him.

Thank you for clarifying this. It is definitely a different story when you have a child involved. I hope she finds a new place soon and that things calm down. Hugs and vibes to you all to get through it.

I got darvocet at the ER about a year ago. That’s my new dream drug. I can’t have it often (well, for obvious reasons), but also ‘cause shrink says no. Not supposed to take narcotics, ‘cause they can really fuck with my mental health.

In mememe news, back home from mom and dad’s again. Quilt top is DONE! Yay! Probably will share pictures in a bit. Have to find what I did with the camera.

ita's not-boyfriend stands over you and makes you eat sensible food.

He's totally the do-that guy. Has done it for me enough times.

And to be clear, I'm not dating Brock Norris.

Damn. I want ice cream.

And I want Nutella so I could eat it with a spoon.

I don't get eating Nutella with a spoon.

I buy a jar of Nutella, thinking of it in the same category as peanut butter. Possibly I buy bananas to put it on. I bring it home, open the jar, take a knife out of the cupboard, peel the banana. Then I stick the knife into the Nutella for the purpose of spreading it on the banana.

Somehow the knife never makes it to the fruit. It ends up in my mouth.

Nutella is dangerous. I can't eat it with a spoon.

I have a few "preview" pics of the Quilt!Pink quilt, if anyone wants to look at them. This is just the top: [link]
