Is he cute?

Because you two could breed a race of super humans.

(It's worth considering.)

We have a couple Shocknives at the centre, and I can take those on extra high slashed against my inner thigh without any visible sign. In fact, we use me as the "Oh, go on! It's not that bad...let's slash ita" example to lull people into getting slashed the first time.

Good god.

ION, am about to cut out of work early (with my whole department) for drinks. Unlike the rest of them, however, I have done NO work today. Maybe not no. Maybe like, .2. Wait, but that would be like a fifth of the day, i.e., more than an hour. So no, not even close. More like, I have done .05 work today. Whoot! Drinky time!

It would never work. He wants sons he can transfer his consciousness into, and I want an army of daughters that look like me but taller to pillage and plunder the world in their mama's name.

He's obviously being selfish.

I don't think I have any worst pain memories. I may have an incredibly low pain tolerance and I wouldn't know. I'm just incredibly lucky, I guess, or majorly lame in not doing anything with any risk at all. But I've never broken a bone. I've never been burned or slashed or undergone surgery or had any significant disease. Hell, I've never even been stung by a bee.

Turned my ankles a bunch of times, quelling what I'm sure would otherwise have been a long and storied career in dance (ha!), but other than that, nothing, really.

Happy Birthday, Nicole!

It's bedtime here. Although still slightly jetlagged so not sleep right at the moment, but I'll try so as to reset quicker.

I second brenda's "Good god" regarding the shock knives though. Yeesh.

well OBVIOUSLY

Sounds like with the right lab you could both be satisfied.

It's possible I read too much science fiction.

Breaking my finger wasn't really painful (until after, as it recovered...but even then it wasn't bad) but seeing the weird way it was bent made me woozy.

Pain. O ya. Been there, done that. Still get it. Ick. Worst pain, by far, was the back surgeries. And the 1st one somehow gave me gas pains that the morphine couldn't cut. Didn't feel the back after the morphine shots, but the pain in the adomen. O ya. Go figure. Tho, I do love the morphine! Thankfully didn't get hooked, but if, lord forbid, I got something that makes life not worth living anymore. Hit me up with morphine baby! Let me ride into the afterlife.

That said. Installed a bunch of new plugins for the work studio (what a PITA, and a total waste of packaging, if the first thing they say is "download the latest update...". Also got a FREE update to Vectorworks. (I updated it a month before the BIG update...so I just have to over-pay the shipping for the new disks).

OK, back to work... I'm not here... really. working.

(ps: vw! OMG what a morning. You did more before your shower than I do all day sometimes! :: swoon :: )

Morphine doesn't work for me. It makes me louder, and the pain smaller, but not enough. And I always turn down more.

Dilaudid is the best bet for me. I've had up to 10mg, but the goal is to give me 6, but all at once. Turns out some doctors think this'll stop me breathing so they hook me up to monitors, and others are willing to leave me alone in the room on all that narcotics with my ride. Still, I'm safe in his hands.

I've been told a number of times that I can't possibly ever have been given more than 2mg in one visit, so my specialist had to put it in my file--doctors were arguing with me over dosage, and that's so not my job. They can argue amongst themselves. Leave the crying lady out of it.
