Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

I love tent cabins. I'm a camping wuss.

ita, do you need a ride anywhere? If so, pls call me. I'm home.

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

I'd appreciate the heat and electricity, but it would be running water that would tip it over for me.

I think, for me, camping is best done in third world countries. Theoretically softens the delta. Theoretically. At least I won't be missing my TiVo.

Thanks for the offer, but it will be wee hours thing--basically if this days old headache wakes me in the middle of the night I'm going back in. So completely inconvenient for everyone, but gets me seen the quickest if I go in after 2 or 3. Any time before 6, otherwise I bump into the nurse's shift change and the doctors rounding.

And I need to take in my dosage recommendations because one of the ER muckety mucks sent out a memo dropping my dosage by a third, and my migraine guy wants it back up. He also wants me in for ketamine, but unless he can guarantee I'll get it, I'm not having myself admitted. It's expensive, and incredibly boring. There's only so much solitaire I can play on my phone.

Oh ita, I am sorry to hear about the timing. What a bitch for you, but I can easily imagine that you'd be seen quicker at that hour.

I am going to be home tomorrow, but carless, but let me know if I can help out.

I can't believe the quickness to chuck Superman. Guy can vibrate his tongue, cock or finger at variable speeds ranging from dosey-do to near light-speed.

Plus, reporter! He writes. Nice guy. Ripped. No back hair. And can kill Batman or Wolverine with his eyes should he so desire.

Yeah, but can he make you laugh?

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

Damn, I want one of those tent cabins. I'm staying in a hotel for my summer festival, because camping last year was so tricky. (When you can't get up off the tent floor without help, and it's freakishly cold at night, and the only place to charge your wheelchair battery is a mile away, you start to get cranky.)

Ugh. This is the truth of urgent care too. I often go in at 2 or 3 when I feel like I have to go and the doctor always asks me, "What made you come in at this hour?"

My response: "It'll still take you over an hour, but at least it won't take you over 4 of them."

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am so glad I have only been to the emergency room twice in my life-- once for a really bad reaction to penicillin when I was 6 and once for horrible horrible stomach pains when I was in college that I know think are related to IBS.

I know I am all "kittens, kittens, kittens" but I tell you the internet contradicts the vets who contradict each other. There seem to be 2 schools of thought about kittens who test positive when young. 1 vet and some websites say that kittens under 4 months who test positive are most likely showing the antibodies from their mothers and will be negative in a few months. The other school of thought is that kittens are weaker than adults, and will die within a couple of months. WTF?
