Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

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.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Quick question and quick rant. As with most things, rant FIRST:

I am sitting in Starbucks and was generally enjoying quiet contemplation WHEN a woman sits down next to me and proceeds to have a loud argument with her (I presume) boyfriend. holy hell. And from my end of the conversation, I am on his side in every way.

Question:

I got a tetanus shot. My first shot in like 20 years. It hurts. I am not screaming in pain but damn. Is this typical?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Oodles and gobs and tractor trailers full of ~ma for Daniel and Andi!!!

le n, I hate that shit. And yes, IIRC, tetanus shots hurt like a bitch for a couple of days.

Sadly, yes. Take some painkiller? Worry if it doesn't lessen over time and go away in a couple days.

I am on his side in every way.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Okay. Thank you for reassurances that this shot is not killing me.

UPDATE: now we are into the blaming part of the conversation whereby said complainant is angry that a long email was not read.

Compassionately intolerant

le n, my last tetanus booster laid me looooow. The injection site was sore for a couple of weeks, no exaggeration.

I used heat and a lot of water to get through it.

Take care of yourself.

Much ~ma to Daniel and Andi for wise doctors, effective tools and strength all around.

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

Oh, so much ~ma for you both, Andi. Give my best to Daniel.

IOGoodN, full body scan came back on DH--IT'S NOT IN HIS MAJOR ORGANS! Thank the sweet baby Jesus. We can use the break.
