Cephalexin
Keflex is probably the most common non-generic name.
Oh, yeah. There was this time I was pinned down by this guy that played left tackle for varsity... Well, at least he used to before he was a vampire... Anyway, he had this really, really thick neck, and all I had was a little, little Exact-O knife ... You're not loving this story.

[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.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe
It's a fairly good antibiotic. It should kick some bacterial ass.

I find it pretty side-effect free, if taken with food.

Hey. New board.
I took Cephalexin to help back during my acne days. My dad (a doctor, with all the write-prescriptions-for-family-members goodness that implies) kept a 500-count bottle in our medicine cabinet, next to the Tylenol. A perk I greatly wished for when I recently had to pay $250 for a doctor's visit and strep test (I'm on a high-deductible plan and had not yet hit the deductible) when I knew exactly what I had, since my wife was diagnosed the morning before, just to get an antibiotics prescription.

Thrive to spite them
I'm taking it 3x a day for 5 days so this should be cleared up before I go home. The only problem is I can't see my urologist until the 27th. I was going to see her tomorrow, but now she wants to see me after I take the antibiotic.
This is where it gets complicated - she's only in the office here Thursdays and Fridays. I leave next Thursday (13th) to go home and come back the following Thursday (20th) afternoon, too late to schedule an appointment for that day. BUT she's in surgery all day on Friday the 21st. So the 27th is the first day I can see her.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
So you can't schedule the appointment now?

I scheduled an appointment for the 27th. I was supposed to see her tomorrow but now she wants to see me after I finish the antibiotics and so the 27th is the soonest.
After feeling decent all day I started to feel bad again and took medicine and now I'm feeling tired and loopy. I think i'll be missing knitting group again.

Trust my rage
I told my therapist today that I often want to pick up [person], wrap him in a blanket, and feed him soup. She's fairly young and hip (not hipster, though). Is that a weird expression or something just we say? Because she looked at me sort of funny.

I don't think I've heard it elsewhere, but I think I would understand what someone was trying to convey even if I'd never heard it before.

I have made a list of all the addresses for postcards people e-mailed me. If you didn't get an e-mail response from me, you are not on the postcard list, so resend.
I'm playing with the shiny phone I ended up renting for the trip. I can tell I'm never going to want to give it back.
