hip deep in pie

I've seen it used as in "personal journalling." In fact I think I've seen a magazine with that name.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

In fact I think I've seen a magazine with that name.

Do you think it's a recent coinage? I had imagined it being much older, but that happens to me a lot once I get used to a word.

Thanks, Cindy. I hope this breaks the cycle of pain, at least for longer than the massage earlier in the day did.

Why am I awake? My alarm doesn't go off for another 40 minutes. Nurse said last night that 6mg of Dilaudid will drop a horse. I actually managed to be coherent last night, and remember much of it, which is the first time I've managed all that on six. Dizzy and nauseated as hell though.

Okay! Still awake. Going to bed. See oonu in a little.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I want to be rich enough to hire personal helpers to at least a dozen of my friends right now. Seriously? WTF? I can't recall so many close to me being in a place so overwhelming at the same time.

What is even happening?

It seems to have been like that since February. It's so frustrating and so wrong. Maybe at noon, we should all go outside and yell, "Enough!"

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I'm blaming it all on March this year.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Totally with you, Cindy.

Smooth going~ma for you, Kat. I hope there's nothing to be worried about.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Jesus, ita -- there's got to be something.

I was just reminded that my minion is off Thurs-Mon, so I'm totally taking Friday off! Whoot! (This morning, I was dreaming about a day off, but felt bad for abandoning Minion so many days recently.)

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I feel I should be mocking the first paragraph of this [link] , but it just makes me sad.

Well, we need to hire Val Kilmer to come in and gun down March's out-like-a-lion ass, because it's overstayed its welcome.

Kat, I hope there's some rest and calm for you soon.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I can only hope that the dealing with the Eppstein-Barr will not be as overwhelming as it currently seems. And that ita will enjoy some relief for a while.

This reality-based lifestyle, not all it's cracked up to be.
