Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
So many milestones, Kathy! Awesome.
Agreed!
That's amazing, -t! Honey honey honey honey honey is what I hear when I read that. (Also, I found more yarn. Should I send it on? Hand dyed cotton in pink and lavender and a thin black (maybe a silk blend?) and a thin purple)
Perkins, that's awesome news!
Much ~ma for your family, Tommyrot.
My first roller derby bout is tomorrow night. It's in Appleton.
Someday it'll be honey honey honey honey, I hope!
Ooh, those yarns sound pretty. I think the box is on its way to msbelle now, you could send them there, if you want.
Eta: good luck, Cashmere!

You will crush them! Use your elbows! Don't break your coccyx!
Emmett had a good hard cry until his pillow case was sopping.
Now he's up and fed and he's watching The Fast and the Furious (because he's on a Vin Diesel kick right now).
I'll explain the slashiness to him next year.
I recently read some random thing about clutching your thumb in your fist for suppressing a gag reflex. Makes no sense, but weirder things happen all the time.
Was this just a sex thing or in general? Because, seriously, I sometimes trigger a gag reflex just brushing my teeth. It's not only annoying, it can sometimes escalate to feelings of choking. So I'm willing to try anything.
I know, I know - insert joke here (just not...you know...there). But it's also a big reason I've avoided a dentist for far longer than I care to admit.
Ugh. I can mostly cope with normal dentist things, but I loathe x-rays.

I remember that being extremely uncomfortable, but I don't think it would cause the same problem because they are off to the side. Unless they've changed them since I had them.
Franken,
this might all be bullshit, but here are some tips on reducing the gag reflex:

The main thing that nearly made me throw up was when I had a mold taken of my upper teeth. That was terrible.
Use your elbows!
Elbows are illegal! I'll get a penalty. I can, however, use my hips, shoulders and ass to block. I'm coming off a nasty virus that put me on my ass but I hope I'm up to surviving the whole bout. My stamina is not what it could be.
My friend managed to get $450 for my twitter alias! I'm a little shocked by that.
I'll get a penalty.
Only. If. They. See. You.
Seriously, girlie, do I need to kidnap you down to the sabre club for a lesson? Because I would totally do that for NO ULTERIOR MOTIVE WHATSOEVER.
