It's what my doctor recommended for cramps. He recommended it over anything he could prescribe. It works as well or better, and even with taking three at a time, it's cheaper than a $12 prescription.
I always thought the name Serenity had a vaguely funereal sound to it.

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
I've never understood the aversion to occasional heavy pain med use. I keep a stash and have no problem medicating myself into oblivion if necessary.

Stoicism is a fine philosophy ... but there's enough pain you can't avoid that you should avoid any you can.
Logically, I know this. I tend to downplay stuff. And, you know, denial? I am a lousy patient.

Just another way painkillers are like root beer.

Shrift, do you do database stuff?
Er. It would depend. I'm probably not qualified.
In other news, I think I can file an unemployment claim online. Living in the future!

Okay, how about I try to get ahold of him and see what's what. I'll pass on the info, and if you're interested, put you together. I know that they're desperate, so you might be able to skate in ;) If you want to, that is.
