Look, Angel, I know you've been out of the loop for a while, but I'm still evil. I don't do errands...unless they're evil errands.

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.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
Did she ever sit on a knife that stuck out of her ass cheek?
Dammit, Hec, I resemble that remark. I will never live that down, not in my family, nor, apparently, on the intertubes.
Sean, Spidra, I have been there, done that with the depresso tunnel-of-doom (and probably will again.) I have to say, it keeps happening, but at least it gets shorter.
Here is my mantra, from the crankiest depresso bitch in the world:
Razors pain you;
Rivers are damp;
Acids stain you;
And drugs cause cramp.
Guns aren't lawful;
Nooses give;
Gas smells awful;
You might as well live.

All is well that ends in pizza.
I'm back home from the doctor.
So I am renting-to-own through my insurance company a Respironics® BiPAP® AVAPS® Noninvasive Ventilator. With added humdifier base. Final cost, before my insurance company will be about $7000. After insurance? Who can tell right now? We'll see.
Apparently it's a CPAP on steroids. It has a memory card and everything.

Oh, and a 10 inch wedge for my bed.

Yeah, C/BPAPs ain't cheap. And be careful of your mask, because they can be pricy to replace if your insurance doesn't have a deal for one free mask a year.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Spidra, I see you, but I have been bad about responding to people lately.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I bet the Germans have emoticons for those feelings.
Yeah, but they'd just be three or four separate emoticons joined together.
I find my reaction to almost everything is covered by @@.
I've found that applies to emus too.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
People, please remind me that, next time I buy a large piece of furniture, I should pay the extra to have people assemble it. I take way too much pride in "I can figure out all the symbols and instructions that confuse other people, and I know how to use tools," and it makes me think that hiring people to assemble things is like saying that I can't do it. I can do it, but I'm still in pain two days later, and it's really not worth it. I really need to get over these issues -- I have no problem with hiring people to just lift and move things, but when it comes to assembling things, my pride gets in the way.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I was all curious about what ita type news was...and then I saw what you guys think me type news is, and I don't even know anymore.
Except....JGL! Yes, let that be me type news, and stat.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.
Years ago I got a Futon couch. The salesman tried to talk me out of paying for assembly. "Why throw away $50 bucks" he said. I went ahead and paid for assembly, wondering why the salesman pushed so hard against an addition to the sale. The couch showed up with assembly specialists. The full sized couch was in bags that could litterally be carried in one hand (other than the futon itself. The assemblers dumped out what looked like hundreds of parts. And the two guys who were experienced enough not to have to glance at the instructions because they'd put so many of this model together took 2.5 hours of labor (with no pauses to rest) to put the thing to together. I can't imagine the nightmare of one klutzy person doing it with instructions badly translated from the Korean or whatever.
So definitely, get the stuff assembled from now on.
