It's general election time here. We received a leaflet with the Conservative Party's 'pledges' on. The Girl is doing a sarcastic twitter series on the subject. (Sometimes I think she should be putting that enterprising spirit to more profitable use...)
Giles: I'm sure we're all perfectly safe. Dawn: We're safe. Right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with. Tara: It sounded convincing when I thought it.
'Dirty Girls'
Spike's Bitches 45: That sure as hell wasn't in the brochure.
[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.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

So my boss may send me to either Prague or Barcelona in the fall for an Investigators Meeting. Which is better?Well, there is a statue of my Great Great Great Great Great Uncle (I think that's the right number of greats). [link]
And I've heard in Czech, there are as many words for "Beer" as Eskimos have for "snow". Alas, it looks like you are not a Beer drinker.
Shir, how ya doing over there? {{{{{ }}}}}
Application for apartment is in Fed Ex's hands now. Now comes the problem of pulling the cash out of my bank account to get the money order. Alas, my branch of Credit Union is in CA. So I can only do $300/day withdrawls. It's going to take several days to pull first and deposit out, even though it's in there.

GC can you call and talk to your pediatrician? S/he can maybe advise you on whether or not you should come in sooner, but at the very least I'd give the office a heads up that you want enough time w/ the doctor on Friday to discuss. (I guess I'm assuming Friday is a routine visit.)
The pediatricians in the office where we go are wonderful about doing phone triage, especially w/ first time parents.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Can't you get a cashier's check from your credit union, omnis?

Sparky, that is what I think I'll do. At least it'll put my mind at ease.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I'm sure it's fine to wait until Friday, GC.
(If you're really nervous, you could always grab a close male friend and ask him to look at it. I pretty much let DH handle any penis-related baby issues.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
And I've heard in Czech, there are as many words for "Beer" as Eskimos have for "snow".
You do know the Eskimo-words-for-snow thing is bunkum, right?

I called and they said it sounded fine to wait until Friday since it's not oozing or red. It's a fairly sizable chunk - I hope it's okay.
