A sort-of friend just left a message asking if I wanted to go to Wall-E this afternoon and/or to Forbidden Planet at the Plaza tonight. (Those of you who went to Rocky Horror at last year's F2F have been there.) I have a huge amount to do here. Decisions, decisions.
Anya: Are you stupid or something? Giles: Allow me to answer that question with a firing.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

good mornin...er, afternoon.
Wow, I was kinda bombed last night. Sorry!
I can't find my phone, but I kinda think I left it at my friend's house.
I NEED a huge iced coffee right NOW. Still wanting that teleporter. Mr. Makeout can go hang, but I wouldn't mind Mr. Iced-Coffee-And-A-Croissant.
Kristin, I can't believe you got stung! That sucks. But I'm sure it's only swelling because --ouch!- it's on your face.

Ugh, Kristin. I've been stung by a wasp just once and that was enough for me. It was on the leg, though, so while it swelled it was more like the giant mosquito bite from hell that really fucking hurt. It actually bruised, I think. I'd guess your swelling is because it's so close to the eye, it's an area that retains fluids quite easily and will show even the most mild allergic reaction. Something to talk to your doctor about, but not urgent.

can toxins slide down from an eyebrow to an eyelid this far after the fact?
Yes. Black eyes do. S took a spill last year while I was out, and clocked herself in the head on something, just above her left eyebrow. I came home to find her with a huge goose egg on her eye, and then watched over the next couple of days as the swelling kind of slid down into her eye socket and turned into a hell of a shiner.

Yeah. It's awful awful awful - but at least he had the balls to break up now, rather than be spineless and let things snowball. (WeeSisterJay's best friend's fiance let things snowball and didn't break up with her until THE HONEYMOON. The fucktard. And they're both Catholic, to add insult to injury.)
The Honeymoon? Really, that is deserving of the most apocalyptic WTF ever.

The status is NOT quo.
I fell asleep for two more hours after taking the Benedryl and woke up to the same exact amount of swelling as before. Damn. I really can't go out in public like this. I look like a freak show.

Ouch, such a tender area. I have no actual advice, but sympathy.

One more hivemind question and I'll leave you alone. We bought too many hamburger patties last night. They were already frozen, so we threw them in the fridge to thaw. Will the un-used burgers be okay for Monday? They were frozen solid when I put them in there, and they haven't left the fridge since.
