Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

LeN, I don't know! I will have to find out.

I have been nearly insensible with pain all day. Seeing double, light-headed, the whole nine yards. I'm hoping it will reach a point where I'm acclimated. Like, Saturday? That would be good. Because my pain specialist appointment is 2 weeks away, and my migraine specialist appointment is a month from now.

If you were going to recommend a book like Strunk and White that wasn't Strunk and White, what would it be?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I already had take out last night, so I suspect the closest I am going to get to pizza tonight is a Lean Pocket or two.

Also, my sister just told me something that I am pretty sure is complete BS, and I really want to call her on it, but I'm not sure what the intent behind the BS is, so I'm not sure I should.

eta: Ugh ita !. I hope it fades, or something.

You guys, I am so bored. It's like I've run out of brain for the week by Thursday evening.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh my, ita. Good luck making it through. Also, Garner's Modern American Usage?

ita,

so, what purpose do you need to use a book that is not Strunk & White?

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

Hey, Boston people -- will I need a winter jacket up there this weekend, or will I be OK with a lined corduroy one?

Thanks Lee, Jesse.

LeN, I was looking for a more modern opinion on the same topic, or at least just a different take on grammar and usage of modern English.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm wearing my winter coat still, but didn't really need it this afternoon. It's 30s-50s, and will be. Depends how much time you'll be spending outside, I guess.

I'm personally a big fan of Grammar Snobs are Great Big Meanies. It cracks me up.

Because books.

I always just use The Chicago Manual of Style, ita, but that's not really what you're looking for.

I'm sorry the pain was so bad today. I wish you could get earlier appointments.

(My)Sara sat and watched a Big Bang Theory rerun with me earlier (she wanted to cuddle) and didn't ever ask what "coitus" meant. I'm not sure whether that's a good or bad thing.
