I hope the pleurisy clears up quickly, Steph. As vaguely 19th century-sounding ailments go, I guess it beats consumption.
I didn't create the troll. I didn't date the troll. In fact I hate the troll. I helped deflate the troll-- All done.

[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.

I was sort of hoping for consumption *just* because of how cool it sounds. As a disease, however, it would suck. (And I've been immunized for it.)
Codeine, woo!

Pleurisy sounds like a really sick Morrissey cover band.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
TB means no alcohol for six months, so pleurisy is probably preferable. Quick healing to you.
Surgery~ma sent from NC.
I am drinking bourbon and ginger and watching Leverage. These things are making my evening tolerable.

It does!
So, I'm sick. Fever, aches, shivering. And then JZ got a call from school - Matilda had thrown up. Yay! The timing couldn't be better!
surgery -ma for Grace, and more surgery -ma for Frank's brother.

I'm hoping it's quick passing. Ibuprofen alleviated a lot of my symptoms, but I will be home tomorrow with Matilda. Never fun being sick taking care of a sick kid.
And I really need this to clear up quick, as we're scheduled to have a guest over on Wednesday night, plus I'll be tour guiding around the city.

~ma to all the sickos.
My xmas fail continues unabated. Went out this afternoon and found two tiny things for gifties, and a really nice agate necklace for myself. (It was half off! More than half, because it was originally $85 but the way they wrote it it looked like $58 so when I protested they gave it to me for half of that. So it was totally Not My Fault. Right?)

Ooh, are we self-medicating? I'm down with that. Except I can't decide what I want. Maybe some hot cider with Sailor Jerry's to take to the dog park.

See, this is better! All the retro, steam-punk cachet with none (or less) of the drowing in your own lungs.
