I hate the auras too. My migraines are always accompanied by the light show.

Memo to ita's brain: Save the fireworks for the 4th of July. How about letting the overactive receptors take some overdue vacation time? Ta.

Do you and your date kiss at restaurant tables?

Other than a small kiss if I'm meeting him there? Never. Overt PDA is just wrong. There's nothing wrong with being affectionate, but there's no need to see tongue unless someone ordered it off the menu.

maria, thank you for your generous offer. I'm doing my damndest to not get stranded, but thank you! Hey, if you pass by the Pikesville exit on the way to White Marsh, wave to me! Or...hrm. I should email you just in case. I'm 2 miles off that exit.

but there's no need to see tongue unless someone ordered it off the menu.

Snort. Of course, my association with mealtime tongue is from one of the Ramona books. Where her dad brings it home cause it is cheap and the kids freak the hell out.

So, did we know there's a ihatecilantro.com?

I love the "Tell Your Story" page.

The pain is subsiding, although my head is wonky as fuck, and the auras have picked their scintillating selves up.

I guess it's about time for me to put the keyboard away before I descend into drugged up posting. God knows, I almost posted on the krav forums, and that'd be no good.

Night all, and thanks for the head wishes.

I had a migraine on Tuesday . which reminded me of the summer I had them almost everyday ( and had no fucking idea how bad it was until the stopped. no , really) It is weird how much you function when you aren't functioning at all .

this is my long -winded way of saying may the cycle end soon.

maria, insent from my work address (home addy works better on weekend for me actually reading it.)

And now? I too go to bed, if I want to get up before rental places close and I actually have to call my neighbor as last resort.

I remember that! Of course my association with the more interesting parts of the animal comes from my father. It's the whole European waste-not-want-not thing. Not a big fan of tongue, or tripe for that matter.

And backflung, but to the work address. I shall forward to the home addy posthaste.

Maria, I don't know if you saw my post from a few days ago, but when you're in Northbrook for work, let me know--I live and work about two miles east of there (in Riverwoods and Wheeling, the next towns over). We can get together for dinner, etc.!

Ack! I must have missed it. Thanks, Kathy! My next trip isn't planned yet, but I'll let you know. I usually stay at the Hilton on Milwaukee, and they've taken me to a few different restaurants in Wheeling.

My grandmother used to sometimes cook tongue. I always refused to even try it.
