Hmm. Getting a $20 one, even if it doesn't have all the features that my regular one has, might be good for traveling. I'm always afraid that it'll get confiscated when I take it on an airplane. (I know better than to actually use it on an airplane -- getting on an airplane connected to a battery pack and wires is a bad plan -- but it's caused a few tense moments at security when it's in my carryon.)

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[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.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Looking at the comments, it looks like there's some hinkiness (technical term) about exactly what the unit is and does.

sj,
apparently, there is some solid research about self-hypnosis as a way to deal with pain of childbirth. I understand it can be very effective.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Hil, I think that you use a TENS unit, there's one for sale today for $20 in a Woot deal (http://www.woot.com/)
Oooh! Yoink!
I've been wanting to get one for my back and hip (no, seriously). And it will probably be put to other uses as well.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange
Wait, there's other things you can do with a tens unit? I can't imagine letting that kind of electrical current near sensitive bits...but i'm also not very kinky. $100 copay for me with insurance!

Yay, askye! That's great news.
I am babysitting today, and then we have the final walk through of the house tonight before we have the closing tomorrow.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Congrats, askye!
I have eaten breakfast, done dishes, taken Frankie to the park, stopped by a friend's house, given Frankie a bath, and taken a shower. My main goal for the next couple of hours is to apply for a job and/or apply for a career fair thingy. My reward is getting a box of produce from the farmer's market.
Ready and... go!
