You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

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

I wish you could help, Burrell. Everything hurts and I hate everything. No one can help. Time. Push the cookies to msbelle.

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

So I have a new med to take for my throat. It's a paste which has to be applied to the very top of my throat/back of my mouth. Suffice it to say getting it there is not pleasant. And yet, it surprisingly works. I'm oddly pleased. That + vicodin + cough suppressant = a good night's sleep, right? Please?

Ow. What's wrong with your throat? I hope it all works for you.

I'm going to try and delay sleep tonight because my procedure is at 1:30pm and I can't eat after 12am. Not that I'm remotely hungry now, but I don't want to risk the morning.

Vicodin and cough meds alone would put me out for a good few hours, Kat. I'm sorry your throat is so sore.

Oh ita, that doesn't sound fun at all. I can handle the not eating, it's the not drinking that gets to me. What is the procedure, if I may ask?

Viral infection. The ulcers/sores are a special treat.

They're going to be injecting/killing something between my C1/C2 vertebrae. My discs are bulging all the way down to my shoulders. I don't know if I can conscientiously ever return to the martial arts, as if I didn't have enough reasons to want to cry today.

I get to drink enough to take my pills, but she said sip. I don't think she gets how much pillage is in my morning. I'd just rather not be awake for most of it.

The ulcers/sores are a special treat.

Ow! I hope you get knocked out.

Oh ick, Kat! That sounds incredibly painful.

I'm currently watching a guy I knew on Travel Channel do Muay Thai, and damn, do I ever miss krav. For Kat knocked out is good, for him, NSM.

At least my instincts seem to still be reasonable--the faults I find with Dhani's form are corrected in the gold medal winner that they show.

I still miss it, though.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Yeah, I bet. It's depressing me just to think about it for you, frankly, and it must be about a hundred times harder to be facing it. Mom went on a crying jag last night, because she's in kind of the same boat -- at least you're trying to fix it. I can't get her to take Pepto Bismol when she's nauseous, or Tylenol for the considerable pain she's in. I can't even get her to explain why she won't take them.
