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.

So it would be nice if my body wouldn't break out in welts every time something bit me. Allergies, you suck.

I feel you. All the beach bugs (no-see-'ums, mosquitoes, etc.) bit the shit out of me on vacation, and what was weird was that all I got was small hard red welts that didn't itch. They took easily 2 1/2 weeks to totally go away. An overreacting immune system is a pain in the ass.

Cereal:

I have an appointment this afternoon with a new dentist, to look at the whole burn-the-crops-salt-the-earth approach to my infected root canal. Here's hoping a different antibiotic will knock it out. (Also hoping I like this dentist and can just switch to a medical professional who is actually professional. And whose office I can walk to.)

When did my little baby become this big boy???

What a charmer! I love the twinkle in his eye.

Here's a recent picture of my nephew Simon, who is almost exactly the same age (Dec 23rd).

eta: Sorry! I messed up the link. I hope this fixes it.

Good luck with the dentist appointment, Steph.

Yes, good luck. I hope this one is sensible and has a better chair-side manner.

It's Tim's dentist, and he likes him a lot, so I'm going to trust Tim's assessment.

(If he steered me wrong, though, I'ma hide all his dark chocolate and porn.)

Aw, Simon is a little sweetie!

I am jealous of his eyelashes (I'd be jealous of the curls, but I've got 'em myself). He is a lot of fun.
