Nitr(a/i)tes. Migraine triggers.

Darn.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Rigatoni is sitting on my desk, attacking the cursor. Deadly cuteness, but makes it hard to see the screen and read posts.

He's now attacking the letters as I type.

Teddy is up to 7 and 1/4 pounds, and his bloodwork is looking good. Still at weekly bloodwork, still confined to a large crate to avoid ripping the internal stitches.

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

I'd been avoiding popcorn too because of trigger issues, but you do mention bacon...so far I haven't had it in sufficient quantities to trigger the nitrite migraine thing. i'm more than willing to explore that...

Will you look at that? Sodium Chloride U.S.P. normal salt tablets. Whew! Saved from teh nast.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

Kat...that just sucks royally. I'm so sorry your distract is screwing you like that. I've experienced all too well the evils of school districts. I can feel your pain.

askye: so I take it you are at TCC? I've lived in a number of places in Central and Northern FL. I'm suffering serious withdrawals from "The Loop", "Coffee Pub", "Kool Beans", and several other Tally places. I hate the way "Mike's Beer Barn" was 'renovated'.

My cats largely avoid the computer screen, except to nuzzle it. However, one of the former familial cats LOVED it when we put on the war channel and there were jets. She'd dangle over the top and attack them.

Is the salt thing a bp raising issue? My dad has become obsessed with his bp. After decades of having low bp and heartrates, he's pinging normal. And having dizziness problems without an identifiable cause. So...bp monitor obsession. Being the obsessive scientist type he is, this means multiple readings all day long and spreadsheets. It's driving my mother nuts.

Yeah, they think if I can raise my BP I'll faint less.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Apparently Dutch process cocoa is high in sodium? [link]

Hot chocolate cure most ills, doesn't it?
