[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.

Trust my rage

Yeah, except I feel like I'm abusing her by giving her anything sweet. (Or with carbohydrates, says the dentist, since I guess sugar/carbohydrates cause equal damage to teeth).

Stephanie, I literally feel Ellie's pain. Well, I was lucky enough to not have an abcess, but oh god, the pain. Poor noodle.

The world really needs more drive-by ice creamings. (I first typed ice crammings. What's with that?)

I was overcome with awwww at Padawan Ellie. I hope the force is with her at the ER. Don't beat yourself up, Stephanie. I am, as I have said before, the poster child for bad teeth, and sugar is only a tiny part of the equation, which is mostly genetic. Is she getting fluoride in her water and toothpaste?

Omnis, I had my bike on a pulley arrangement before some stole the bike. It hangs on a single ceiling hook, kind of like [link] so it should be relatively apartment friendly. If I can remember the extremely logical place I put it, I could send it to you.

Poor Padawan Ellie! Quick healing for her.

The Women is on cable this morning and just as bitchily entertaining as ever.

Norma Shearer's character is such a drip and sanctimonious bore early on, that you wind up rooting for Crystal Allen. At least for a little while. It's kind of a neat narrative trick, but Joan sells it.

Since I went to an all-girls' high school, every year I lobbied for the drama department to do that as our Spring show.

Shot down every year. Pah!

Trust my rage

Thanks everyone. It has been a bad week for teeth. I just got an email from Joe - they say she has blood poisoning and will admit her for 5-10 days. I'm rather freaked out and feeling especially stressed in that I have a nursing toddler and a little girl in the hospital - both who need me and can't be in the same place at the same time.

oh joy! Oh Rapture ! I have a brain!

Drive-by ice creamings sound like the best thing ever.

Honestly, getting Ellie into the habit of brushing after she eats - always - would be better than denying treats.

I like the idea of the trike omnis, I really hope it works.

ION, I have DH's cold. Maybe not as bad as he had it, but still - DON'T WANT

I'm sorry -- I hope things get better for Ellie quickly

Oh, my goodness! Poor Ellie! And poor you -- *of course* you're freaked out and stressed!

Is there anything I can do from Ohio?

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

Oh, poor little thing! And poor parents! I hope she's as unscared and brave as possible.
