Spike's Bitches 44: It's about the rules having changed.
[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.
It's been snowing all day here. As long as it's clear by Tuesday morning I don't care.
The inconsolable baby quieted down the minute daddy came home, and the childless people are exhausted.
Someone reassure me that my own babies won't hate me if I can't walk them around all day.
sj, I promise your babies won't hate you if you can't walk them around all day. Really.

Not entirely -- I'm sure the fencing tournament S was at earlier in the weekend is still going on. They're about eight miles underground at the convention center, and anyway the sport is run by sociopathic Eastern Europeans...
Thanks, Cashmere. Now can someone tell me the trick to having enough energy to deal with a teething infant with a cold.
Speaking of teeth...
I think it *is* a tooth. Finally today I'm having serious pain when I bite down, and it's pretty much located in one tooth, way in the back. I'm obviously not a dentist, but it looks like there's a crack in it.
So, uh, how bad is root canal? Is it horrible?

Brandy. 1. For the parental units/caregivers - it is a very efficient fuel. Honest. 2. Rubbed onto unhappy gums, it is a traditional (if lately frowned upon, but hey, it didn't kill me or turn me into an alcoholic) remedy. 3. Also a sip or two works as a cough suppressant.
The worst part of a root canal is having your jaw open for that long. Load up on advil before you go and you should be fine.

Really? I always hear horror stories about horribly painful root canal procedures. And I've gotten most of my fillings with NO novacaine, so I'm not a big wimp when it comes to dental pain. But -- this tooth hurts so much, I don't want the dentist to even *touch* it, so I can't imagine that the whole root canal dealie would be pain-free.
Also, I need to stop reading things on the internet about root canal surgery.
