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

Are you pro-Septugenarian?

I'm pro looking my age (whatever hand genetics dealt). When that's 70, 70 it is. The idea of losing my expressiveness in the pursuit of looking younger? Not for me. I was almost torn about doing it to stop the pain. And by almost I mean that I'm desperate to lose the pain, and will do what it takes. But I still might regret what it takes, even as I do it.

I mean, did you do something wrong, or are you just not toughing it out enough?

Failure of character, I guess. But there's a whiff of it not being right.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Failure of character, I guess. But there's a whiff of it not being right.

Yeah, well, even grit gets washed away under a steady flow. Your river's been over its banks for a long time now.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

But there's a whiff of it not being right.

What's not right is having to deal with the amount of pain you have to consistently deal with.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

What Hec and ChiKat said, ita. It's not a failing to be in pain. Or if it's a failing, it's not of your will or your rectitude--it's just flesh. And beyond a certain point, our flesh is outside our control.

I wish I could fix things for you. If good wishes meant anything, certainly all the Buffistas would have fixed you by now. Darn it.

I'm just beyond pissed that I've felt I had to go into the ER every three or four days.

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

Criminal minds: they let Hotchner smile! Only for a second, but still!

Always Anti-fascist!

I wish House was real, ita. Because I think you could use one. And that episode would rock, too. I don't know how I feel about Botox. It just makes me sad sometimes to see people trying for something and missing the mark so desperately. Like the local news anchor who looks like molded plastic, but who probably thinks she looks great.

Tnanks, erika. That would be worth tolerating House for.

Happy birthday, CaBil!
