I found it! Under a bunch of gardening books. I'll start reading today.
Can I mop your brow? I am at the ready with the fearsome brow-mop.

Spike's Bitches 46: Don't I get a cookie?
[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.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I know that Buffistae are exceptionally good at hitting up the Interwebs for research, but Tim does have a lot of ADD/ADHD links at hand, and he'd be more than happy to share them (via me, apparently his Miss Moneypenny). So let me know and I can hook you up. (I know a guy...)

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
My doctor called and said my vitamin D levels are low again, so I'm going back on the prescription of D for a while. Maybe if I can keep my iron and my D levels up at the same time I will actually have some energy. Please?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You've just reminded me to take my last Vitamin D pill and get the prescription refilled. Once-a-week meds always escape me.

Glad I could help, ita. I have trouble remembering them too.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
What's different about prescription Vitamin D compared to the OTC stuff?

HUGE dose taken once a week.

What you need is some sunshine, missy. I know a place...

Still thinking about it, but I really don't do sunshine very well even when I am in a sunny place. A quick glance at the sun leaves me with new freckles and a burn.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Oh, for god's sake. I was just in the bathroom at work (we don't have one in our own office; it was the one all the offices on this floor share).
I don't know how long I was in there, but someone next to me flushed, washed her hands (from what I could hear), and then she said, "Ma'am, are you all right in there?"
I'm pretty sure I wasn't snoring or otherwise making sounds of distress, but I thought, well, she's just being kind, so I said, "I'm fine, thank you."
Which she followed up with, "Well, you've just been in there a long time, and that's not normal."
Okay. You inquired after my well-being, and I thanked you because I took it as a gesture of kindness despite any evidence on my part that I was NOT all right.
But then you follow up with a comment on the length of time I was on the john and further judge it to be not normal? NOT ON.
So I said (and I am not making this up), "Well, I have irritable bowel syndrome, so I have to be the one to determine what's a normal amount of time FOR ME to spent on the toilet. Would you like to hear about the symptoms that lead me to spend what you think is an abnormal amount of time on the toilet?"
She left.
Look, I know it was bitchy and ungracious (and vulgar), but seriously. The first question was unexpected but vague enough that I took it as a gesture of kindness. But then you decide for me what's an appropriate amount of time to spend on the shitter, and I have a problem with that.
