Maybe if I start referring to the things I want with the prefix "Iya-" then a kind stranger will send it to me.
I am good.

Iyacoffee.
I'm so sorry, but if it makes you feel any better, my fun-time-Buffy party night involved watching a robot throw Spike through a window, so if you want to trade... no wait, I wouldn't give up that memory for anything.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

ita, I had forgotten about your popcorn issues. I think the salt tablets are the best way for you to go, but for future reference, bacon salt is both nitrite and nitrate -free. (Pete has issues with both, so I had to double-check.)

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!
Kat , I know you have enough craziness now, but talking to a lawyer or union rep would be a good idea
and good luck , JZ.
My father was a pilot, so I have been flying forever. Flying has changed. United is rarely on time now. As in I think they need to start giving food to people to help keep them coffee. Martini's would also be good. Oddly -I felt worse for the parents - that had schedualed flights so the babies would sleep. a 3 hour delay - purely due to lack of crew ( that was not weather delayed - just badly schedualed) really messed that plan up.
and I one who drives, but would like the ability to skip it some days. I know there are times when it would be better if I wasn't driving.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
This country needs high-speed rail.
ION, I have just discovered that Josie and the Pussycats in Outer Space is on DVD....

This country needs fucking teleportation. If it existed, I'd get up at my normal time and be able to do early morning and evening childcare for FREE for my friends spread far and wide (um, and play with neato kids) and still hold a job.

ita, orthostatic hypotension could explain the fainting, anyway. How do you feel about soy sauce? It's seriously loaded with sodium.
I've never been afraid of flying. Flying is safe. Driving is dangerous.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
I have lowish blood pressure, and have always had wild cravings for salty foods. Coincidence? I think not!
(Mine are usually dill pickles, and sometimes artichoke hearts over salad. My stepsister used to put salt on raw cucumber slices, which I thought was gross when I was 10, but now I'm an adult I've tried it, and it's pretty good.)

ita - clearly you need to eat more sushi - being sure to dip your sushi in the soy sauce.
I love eating raw cucumber with soy sauce.

not your mom's socks.
What Nutty said. ditto with the ridiculously low bp.
Plus olives.
Also salted cashew nuts.
and just - .... anything with salt. Yum. The Terra chips especially... the sweet potato ones and the dasheen ones.
... ahem.
This is going to sound ridonkulous, but one of my migraine triggers is strobing lights - especially camera red-eye flash and really crappy CRT screens. There was one in an office where I had to work sometimes that could set me off about three minutes after I walked in the room. Flat screens better.
