On the good side, I don't have to be working out in this heat wave anymore today. And I had a homemade coffee milkshake to enjoy.
Can't even shout, Can't even cry. The Gentlemen are coming by. Looking in windows, knocking on doors. They need to take seven, and they might take yours. Can't call to mom, can't say a word. You're gonna die screaming but you won't be heard.

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.

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

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Actually Sox, I did prefer the complete explanation he gave me (esp since he basically was telling me to hold off on treating it), but yeeps. I think he was just a bit awkward because he knew he was giving me a one-two that would make me unhappy. Conversation basically went:
Me: Gee, I am worried about this thing on my lip.
Dr: No need to worry, I am not worried about it. It's a longincomprehensiblemedicalterm.
Me: Oh good, so you won't need to cut it off?
Dr: Oh no, we can't cut it. We need to... uh... burn it off. Quite painful actually, etc etc.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Yikes, Burrell! I'm not a fan of painful medical procedures that involve burning. You know, unlike the vast majority of humanity who love it.
Ugh, just heard that a baseball coach I knew from Little League committed suicide. Not a close friend of mine, but somebody I've known at the ball fields since Emmett was 8. He had chronic depression and was switching meds and something went awry.
I feel so sorry for his son and family.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I got medically burnt once. The smell was disconcerting. You might want to distract yourself from that.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Ginger, much peace and strength to you and your family. My condolences.

Carmex (or some other strong-smelling lip goop), applied right under the nose. It really does work, at least for me.

If only they'd told me there was going to be cauterising. But I don't think I was getting out of that without trauma. There are some things that shouldn't be done under local.

You are correct. Then again, I am the fool who refuses novacaine when at the dentist. Every filling I've ever gotten has been done without anything, let alone a local.
I am so tired, both physically and mentally. The mental portion is only going to get worse. Someone please wake me up somewhere around January 31, 2012. Thanks.

I did that. Once. Only once.

It's quite pathetic that I'm more scared of a needle than a drill in my mouth.
My brain and logic? NSM with the friendly.
