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

What was the anti-nausea drug that's successful for you, ita?

Compazine, but I need it with benadryl. Zofran also works well, but not as well. Reglan is my third option.

I hope your friend recovers quickly.

I think I've shared this before, but if I'd been born a boy my parents were seriously considering Frodo

I know I've told this story here before: my first name comes from Stranger In A Strange Land. Mom insisted that it was spelled with a "J" instead of "G", but was totally fine with me being named after a Heinlein character. I occasionally thank my lucky stars I didn't end up being named Podkayne.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

My mom wanted to name me Bridget. I have no idea what I would have been named if I was a boy.

ION, The Beastie Boys like carrots. Just FYI.

Thanks. I've passed it along.

Err, the anti-nausea meds, that is, not the information that Beastie Boys like carrots. I have no idea to whom I should convey that info.

All kinds of ~ma for your friend, Liese. Yikes.

I am watching TED talks by Brian Cox and now Brian Greene, and I blame vonnie. Because it's her fault for linking them. I subscribe to the podcast, but these are older ones. Blame, because I should be either writing or cooking food instead.

See, that's not him or him. My brain is all twisty.

Why am I still at work? Someone could send me an email or something! I better leave!

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

No, what you should really be doing is linking meeeeeeeeee.

Okay, I need to go get dinner and watch television. Should I a) eat the venison stew that is in the slow cooker timed to be done with the SO gets home? Or b) eat the squash enchiladas from yesterday?
