So that's my dream. That and some stuff about cigars and a tunnel.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Today's SF groupon is for this place: [link]

I probably won't buy one, because it's not conveniently located for me, but how can you not love a place that has a dessert called "Peanut Butter Jelly Time!"?

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

Never saw FF2 (jaysus, Alba, rilly?)

Oh, she's so much more convincing as a bride-to-be about to have a meltdown than as a noted scientist working in an orbital research station. Seriously producers, when turning invisible and creating force fields require less suspension of disbelief for a character than her career path, rethinking things is a good idea.

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

Looks like they're giving me the old school protocol at the ER this week. Hope it helps.

Did you know some IV meds taste on injection? Weirdness. I can taste benadryl and toradol, and the first push of saline.

Just have to remember to breathe.

I hope so too, ita!

Please do remember, yes.

“Not dead yet!”

Yes, breathing would be good.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Hope it helps, ita. Breathing is very good, I am in favor of breathing.

I've run into that tasting the IV thing before, it's a pretty weird sensation. I think I've gotten it with dyes, maybe?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I also vote for breathing...

By the time I was 12 or 13, she would write things like "I love Duran Duran!" on the banana, which just cemented her rep as the cool mom.

That is awesome! And I'm glad mine isn't the only family that does that.

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

So I am trying to find a store that carries Nubar polish so that I can walk in and buy it and not have to pay shipping. No way can I justify buying $75 worth of nail polish. Sigh. No one carries Nubar.

Any LAista want to go in with me on an order? I know Kat just ordered some, so not her presumably, but anyone else?

Yes!! Hah, I'm not the only one. I could totally taste benadryl when they shot me up with it (morphine pump is lovely, but it makes me a little itchy.)

Breathing, check.

Today's second nurse was one of the good ones. Most nurses try twice (if that often) to find a line and then bail. First nurse declared me one of the worst cases ever without poking me at all. Him? He's never left until I've gotten a line in me somewhere, and he's adamant athat it won't be a doctor-administered neck IV.

I'm always relieved when he comes in.
