The entire LAPL database is down, so there can be no renewals--online, over the phone, or in person.
But overdue fees will not be waived. When I mentioned it wasn't fair the librarian just didn't say a word.
Harrummph.
Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.
Spike ,'Potential'

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

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

Goddamnit. I hate Giant. I went to the pharmacy to get more insulin needles (after hitting a RiteAid, where they wouldn't sell them to me without a prescription. Which is contrary to what the state says the policy is. Anyway.) I told them exactly the specs, twice, and the main pharmacist bagged the box without me seeing it, behind the counter.
I get home, it's the wrong gauge and length. Needles aren't returnable. Pisses me off. I'll use them if I have to (they'll work, they'll just be more painful,) but I'll probably go out and get the right kind and donate these to my vet or something. And bitch at Giant at some point.
Not now, though. Too tired.

RE Worldcrossing, apparently some servers are redirecting and some aren't.
wc4.worldcrossing.com , wc1.worldcrossing.com go to should.com but wc5.worldcrossing.com is okay.

Hey, I'm tired too. And I need to make a pharmacy run because I'm totally out of one of my prophylactics. I need a good system to manage my prescriptions and refills. Somewhere there's a spreadsheet. I just need to find it again.
There's a terrible email chain about the vegansexual thing filling up my inbox, and I almost skeeved myself by using the phrase "hot meat injection."
Almost. It's all in how you slant it.
The phrase, not the injection itself, nor the hot meat.
I really want to go home. Migraine. Currently without the pain, but that's not exactly any fun either.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
What's a migraine without pain? If you don't mind.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Clouded vision, perhaps?

This one has me feeling cloudy. I'm nauseated and my skin won't stop crawling. It feels like my brain is sloshing around in my skull and I can't bear the thought of moving quickly. I'm light-sensitive and my eyes are just on the urge of hurting and bringing back the actual headache. I'm having vague auras which make it look like things are running around on my desk at the edges of my visual fields, as well as a couple bursts of light and colour here and there.
I'll probably be woozy for a few seconds when I stand up too.
It's a gross sluggish feeling--it's what adds on to a headache (for me) to make it not just a headache but a migraine.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Umm, crap. I'm suddenly thinking I have a lot more migraines than I usually give myself credit for.

I read this quickly, and thought ita was going to go buy condoms. And was kinda impressed, but a little puzzled why she was announcing it.

And you in the pharmaceutical industry and all! Dirty little (flattering) mind.
amych--don't forget you may also be able to redeem sinus headaches for valuable migraine points.
