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.

{{{Spidra}}} I'm sorry that your mother is so insensitive to your limitations.

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

But then won't the brownies have shards of glass in them?

Adds texture.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Adds texture.

Or you could use the kind of "glass" they use for TV and movie stunts. It's make out of sugar.

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

I'm sorry your co-workers ated all your brownies, Jessica. Definitely put some aside in a little tupperware for yourself next time. Having grown up with a pack of ravenous brothers, it's like second nature to me now.

It's really difficult to think when your brain is slowly rather rapidly roasting inside your skull.

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

Oh, it's not like I didn't get any brownies. But by the time I'd stayed at work an hour late and needed a snack they were all gone.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

having gone through a fms dx at age 19 i'm very familiar with the spoons analogy and find it apt. It's not about unlimited spoons = unlimited energy at all. I've been in a "remission" state for over 3 years now and i totally feel blessed to not have to count. I get up in the morning knowing I can pretty much do whatever i want to do during the day. Sure, i'm not out running marathons, and like everyone i get tired most days because there's never enough time in to do all the things i *want* to do...but that is not at all the same thing as ending up in the hospital because i tried to stand through an hour long painting class, ya know?

Running out of spoons is not running out of energy, it's running out of *ability*. It's collapse. That's what people who have never had a chronic issue rarely understand. *shrug* it's a tough thing to explain.

Now I neeed to make brownies tonight. Pretty sure i can still fit in a brisk walk through the local park and cooking dinner too, if time permits :)

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

What's an FMS DX?

fibromyalgia diagnosis. sorry, too used to shorthand :)

heh, and i guess it makes a difference that i was in college at the time. I think teenagers and early 20 somethings have far more a sense of boundless-energy-until-you-pass-out-ness and i was super jealous of missing out on that.

We've got AC up here in Pasadena if you want to come by and hang out Sean.
