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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

the only thing worth anything now is gold.

Glenn Beck said so on TV - it must be true!

You should counter by saying you only invest in nonhybrid seeds. Or oil.

Hivemind query:

So, my sleeping is CRAZY out-of-whack. Crazy. I haven't gotten decent sleep in about 2 weeks, and I can't fall asleep unless I've been up for about 18-20 hours. I get up about 4pm and get to bed about 11 am or noon.

I am a shuddering mess right now, and I woke up at 4:15 -- too late to try to schedule a doctor visit. I am seriously thinking about urgent care to try and see if I could get a script for Ambien, because the thought of being up for another long, long night followed by more crap sleep is sending me into panic attack mode.

Is this even a plausible thought? I just want to SLEEP, but I'm afraid I would look like craxy drug-seeking girl and I would pay to get denied. Thoughts? I've only been to an urgent care once, for a screaming sinus infection.

move out and draw fire

Yeah, because Wall Street frakked everything else, with help from the Republicans.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Eta: now what do I do?

So that's it then, really? Total pisser. But, uh, since I don't know what you wanted to do, I don't know what to tell you to do now. Unless you want completely frivolous suggestions. That I can do.

Eat a cupcake!

Burn that prof in effigy!

Alphabetize your DVDs/books/etc!

Knit me this sweater! [link]

Ah, never mind on the urgent care query. Not enough money, so it's moot.

Phone is also turned off til Friday (payday) Sure hope none of my job prospects call.

Fan-fucking-tastic.

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

{{{Erin}}} Not enough sleep makes everything else so much harder. I wish I had some idea that might help.

Yup. Nothing like an endless round of worrying about trying to sleep. And now I might lose the line on the only job-nibbles I have had in months.

It's very, very frustrating and depressing.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Kanji symbols are... controversial in tattooing, from what I know. I think they are passing out of fashion, and are often roundly mocked by Japanese/Chinese speakers.

If I were ever to get a Hanzi tattoo, it would be 有仁 ('Yŏu Rén'). It means 'benevolent'. It's also Ryan's Chinese name. I'm pretty confident I haven't mistranslated it or missed any "Ich Bin Ein Berliner" wackiness (unless Wallybee's parents are in on it, and I wouldn't entirely put it past her father). It is, however, phonetically identical to "This toilet is occupied".

It looks like the feeding tube will be coming out tomorrow barring any major setbacks.

Excellent!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Yup. Nothing like an endless round of worrying about trying to sleep.

It's the worst. I spent last night / this morning doing it. And just getting close or drifting off for a few minutes at a time. A few times long enough to dream of shooting people. Which was surprisingly easy.

I wish you rest, Erin.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Erin, do you need a Google Voice invite? That way in future stuff you can use your GV phone and even if the phone line gets turned off like that, you can still see and grab the messages online. I'd be happy to send you an invite.

I hope you find a way to sleep. I'd suggest a hot bath just before planned bedtime but I'm guessing you've already tried that one.
