{{{Teppy}}} I'm not sure anyone really gets used to someone they love constantly having health problems. I'm sorry you have been under so much stress.
Oh, yeah, baby, it's snakalicious in here.

[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.

You mock my pain!!! (Is that from a movie? It sounds like it is, but I can't recall if it is, and if so, which movie.)
It's from Princess Bride.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Anything else I could say is just whining. Which is a bad pattern.
Like I said, this concern about whining is more your issue than the community's issue. You (more than most people) need to allow yourself to let down and be Not Strong and that you could use some support.
You're letting your Tough Girl self image get in the way of the things that you need emotionally.

Really, I was thinking more of John Malkovich on SNL. "The Moon mocks me..."

Okay, I've taken my temperature almost as often as I've taken S's this morning (last check, she's down to 102.6, so that's good).
I know I don't have a fever, as the thermometer tells me I do not.
Yet? I still feel chilly, sore and achey.
That's not fair! If I don't have the fever any more, I shouldn't be having fever side effects, dammit!

Punishingly Intricate
the commute is a killer, especially to downtown DC. We thought about taking the train, but it takes so long and costs so much it's really not an option.
I wouldn't do it but I know a bunch of people do (I imagine mostly by train). I already hate commuting to Columbia, fucking Jessup starting next week, which is only about 40 minutes away. Even though it's not as much of a bargain as 5 years ago the housing prices are still just so much lower here.
Anyway, I hope you find something suitable and affordable with as little pain as possible very soon!!

Life IS pain, Highness. Anyone who says different is selling something.

Always Anti-fascist!
Hec and I grew up with the same Nordic brand of craxy that says until you actually see your spleen come out of your guts, you say it's just a flesh wound.And he's got the sport-o "Walk it off," thing, too I bet.(damn jocks...just don't grok) My mom is totally that way...had a tumor cut out and was back at work Monday(Part of that was a suck job but I suspect she would've anyways. Cause she's macha like that.) I think she was afraid she'd raised Candyass McKvetcherstein, but two things happened: I got a tattoo without screaming and I can look at bloody crime-scene footage. Now, she feels she's crimped me up sufficiently.

This was the first thing we watched in our new apartment Saturday night. Still the perfect movie.

And to think I don't have a copy. Must rectify.
