'The Message'
[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.
Askye, there is much to love about finding yourself in all new surroundings. As several here have attested. All the best to you in your move!
Less pain to sj.
More clear to smonster.
Aims, the ones who bullied never believed it was "all that bad" on the ones who were bullied. She needs reminding--and some clear information that isn't "whining". School her. I know you can do it.
Book-ma, Barb.
The world needs Ryan pictures every blinkin' day.

Yeah, this. I said it too, earlier, but I was less polite and well-spoken than Beverly, so I didn't post it.
She's trying to remind me that I am doing a lot lately, and that just going to PT today rather than staying home with the pain should be considered somewhat of a victory.
This is very much true. Just showing up at PT and doing the best you can do that day is moving forward, not backwards. Even if you can't do a "proper" workout, you're making progress.

So very this.
Hil, I hope you managed to get some sleep, at least. And I hope that today is less painful for you.
I went on this at the weekend: [link]
That looks tres cool. This,
Concerningly, the government is now threatening to remove the right to protest from anyone it chooses. Scary times we live in.however, does not. I'm quite terrified of what I see happening in the U.S. and in the U.K. with regards to the push to redistribute the wealth of the middle and lower classes right on up to the upper class. What I think that most politicians who are willing to push that agenda fail to see, is that their mega-rich backers do not see them as equals, but as servants - well-paid servants, to be sure, but merely servants. I think the politicians who do realize it think they are serving in heaven. The ones who don't probably have no clue that they are reigning in hell.
But I have chosen a dress for my wedding, which is mitigating the stress somewhat.
Squeeeeeeeee! I can't wait to see pics! Damn, where's that transporter technology? If I could get there, I would totally gate-crash your wedding. P.S. good luck with those conference proposals.
I am really moderately freaked out. The weird lesion things that my OB/GYN diagnosed as HSV over a month ago (despite a negative culture -- but she said it could have been negative because I had had the symptoms for so long the virus was probably no longer active) has not healed. So it's been giving me trouble for a little over 2 months.
Went back to OB/GYN at some ungodly hour this morning, and she was concerned that it hadn't healed -- although she said it looked a tiny bit better -- and that, looking at it today, it doesn't look like HSV. So she biopsied it (which was, I have to say, REALLY painful) for more tests, including possibly HPV.
I know HPV is common (almost as common as HSV, it seems), but I'm just...freaked out. Partly because I want this to be all gone, and partly because I want to goddamn know what EXACTLY is is, and partly because I don't know what it means in terms of a prognosis.
So. The biopsy results won't be back until Monday, so I'm trying to be chill and failing miserably. And I need to step away from WebMD.
sending you chil ma~~ Steph. As much as i can because i would be in the exact same place as you are.
Ack. Chill is a tall order right now, but I hope you can find it somehow.
And in a way, the really worst part is the killing effect on our sex life. I know there's stuff we *can* do, but having a painful lesion on one's ladyparts for 2 months pretty much makes you feel the exact opposite of sexy.
Monday is a long time to wait. I'm sorry. And boo to unsexy feeling as well.
I'm trying to think who could dress as Desire? Young David Bowie? Annie Lennox?
Juliana. Naturally I have no pictures of this event (Halloween a bazillion years ago), but trust me, it worked.
And I need to step away from WebMD.
Stepping away from WebMD is *always* a good idea.
sj, it's so hard that the path forward is not a straight one. Setbacks suck.
Steph, uggh. I hope they get that diagnosed soon and hope it's something treatable.
You go, Seska.
Liese, I was wishing you were with me on Friday night to see this band: [link] They play mostly if not all covers, but their energy is AMAZING.
I am home sick again. Went in and made it until morning break. I feel assy and weak. I'm eating lentil soup and cheese toast and watching Justified, and then I'm going to bed. This virus is totally kicking my ass. I gotta say, I don't mind dirt and mud and rust, but one of my least favorite things about deconstruction is dealing with (whitefonting for squeamish peeps) dessicated animal corpses . Today we found a cat . Whee.
