We're still working on a plan, but so far it involves being sent to prison and becoming somebody's bitch.

I'm unsure how to include the book.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

It's on Pico and Gateway, or around there anyhoo. It's supposed to be v. good, but I haven't eaten there. Then again, haven't tried The Hump either, but I know you like it.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I want to mention that Allyson's boss is a massive dick.

Burrell, I go to Wax Poetic on Magnolia in Burbank, and Christa cuts and colors my hair and is very good. They have a gallery connected withthe salon, so one can look at art while waiting, which is cool.

Dear Allyson's boss,

Frame your own fucking wife's fucking picture.

I hate Allyson's boss a lot. I also hate the LAUSD for the entire paycheck debacle that Kat is feeling the consequences of now. I've been following that story with increasing anger since last spring, and I can't believe the level of ineptitude. I'm so sorry you're being so royally screwed over, Kat.

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

It's on Pico and Gateway

Near that Oaxacan place we went one time? I think I know it.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Now I want omakase.

At the Hump, so I can watch other people's dinners squirm.

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

And other people squirm at their dinners.

I think I may just have done a day's worth of work. Now to go home and see if I can get the headache gone without aid external to my home.

I have to say, dilaudid at home may be less stressful than ER dilaudid, but it's a thoroughly miserable experience even with anti-histamines.

I didn't expect it to be a perfect fix, but I am a little disappointed.

I may be seeing you, lisah. Hey, do they have dinosaur stickers?

I don't really know. I don't remember seeing any last time I was in.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Just looked more closely at some of my blood test results and at the Mayo Clinic info on hypothyroid. (I'm generally a bit leery of internet medical info, but I figure Mayo Clinic knows what they're talking about.) My cholesterol jumped over 100 points in the past year and a half. I'm already on cholesterol meds. The doctor I saw today glanced at my cholesterol test and told me I have to lower it. I said that that number is weird -- it's usually significantly lower. He shrugged it off.

Guess what one of the most common causes of a sudden jump in cholesterol is?
