Timelies all!
Concert was fun. Since Beth was performing with Patrick O'Flaherty, one of her bandmates in the Poor Clares, the set was mainly trad Cajun and Celtic music.
Jayne, you'll scare the women.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Somebody please explain "[drops mic]" to me?
It's a rap thing, though I guess singers do it now too?
Anyway, it's after you've done a particularly impressive freestyle and blown away the person you were competing against, you simply drop the mic and turn and walk away indicating that (a) you are done; and (b) you crushed them.
Here, of course, it is being used ironically generally to mean you're finished with whatever you were bloviating about.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Now seriously contemplating changing my tagline to:
SMACK. Like daffodils in motherfucking spring.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So my cable (tv) is down, due to some "problems in the area." So that's fun. And the guy said there were no "problems in the area" on Wednesday, when my DVR didn't record a bunch of stuff. In short: I hate my fancy new cable. Except when it works.

Clearly you need to get a Roku as an emergency backup entertainment alternative.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
So....I should have called it when I didn't feel it. That was half the benadryl and 3/4 the dilaudid, which she didn't clarify until the third dose and isn't interested in making up the difference. So, my head hurts, I want to puke, and they're about to discharge me.
And I've been ringing for a nurse for about an hour because all they do now is admit or discharge. Not treat. You don't have to go home but you gotta get out of here.

I really just wish you could always get the good staff, ita.
My tv is back AND pictures are hung, so a net win. I have too many framed pictures.

Me too, jesse, me too. I'm admitted now, and it's just like not being admitted, so I've asked one of the nurses to find out when it will not be the same. And I've sent an email to my migraine doc about resolving confusion proactively next time.
Really, I think everything is taken care of except the sulking. I should get a head start on that.

You know, it's too bad you haven't proactively sought out experts and protocols so this kind of thing wouldn't--OH WAIT.

Yeah, I should really start seeking help with these migraines. I hear they have these people now, they deal with health issues? And they specialise? Well, something like that anyway. It's clearly very complicated for a layman to follow. You need to be able to take notes and count and stuff. So I don't want to rush into it.
