I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

Good luck with that, Joe.

He'll make a chart, it'll be totally fine.

signed, knows too much about Blue's Clues for someone with no kids

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Oh, hey ita. Good luck on the hospital visit thing. I'd say at this point you're about due for some good results.

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

Thanks, guys. I think I'm so completely desperate I've gone past maximum and come out the other side.

I just need this thing done, and bits of my life back.

In possibly cool news, though, my GP is willing to sign paperwork saying I can take scuba (do we still have to capitalise that?) lessons.

What is even happening?

When you don't capitalize it, it's like you are. Sometimes. Sort of.

Does anyone have interesting Friday the 13th stories?

Because I am oh so very bored.

Eerie, Ailleann, I'm totally bored too.

SCUBA! Fun! You'll hate diving anywhere locally, though, what with your heat-miser needs.

Noah's got a electric powered oxygen concentrator at home, about the size of a dorm fridge. And has two sizes of tanks for to-go use. The smaller tank is 18"-ish long. And lots of hose. Not sure how long he's due to be on it.

How does an oxygen concentrator work?

The only thing that comes to mind is maybe air is superchilled until the nitrogen (which is what air mostly is) is condensed out, leaving more oxygen left.

Is this the story where everyone starts chanting "Lard ass! Lard ass!" at the end?
