Ways to know you're in Toronto:
1) the CN Tower
2) the teenage skate punk who hits a rock and nearly takes you both down in the street shouts out "Oh my goodness!"
Haven't you killed me enough for one day?

Jen, much -ma to your mom. I've read where one of the best approaches to stroke and other brain injuries is to get therapy as soon as possible into effect. My fingers will be crossed very hard for her and for all your family.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I noticed my nurse had a Buffy "B" stake with Mr. Pointy in it, so I asked her about it. Apparently I was the first person to have gotten it, in ever. So we had a long talk about the franchise. On the inside of her other wrist was the Angel "A". And she has Buffy plates.
So, of course, she now knows about this site. Because me and my mouth don't have a keeping shut relationship. But, she was really nice.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Mmm, new thread smell. Kinda smells like...guacamole?

Hey, if we can suborn, I mean, get one of your nurses on our side, you'll have an agent in the enemy camp.

How long is applesauce good in the fridge once it's been opened?

Because books.
Until it doesn't have mold in it, askye? (Seriously, that's usually my test.)
Hi, nice nurse of ita's, if you're here.
S. and Sara have gone to church without me, because I seem to be having some kind of intestinal yuck that got me up around 4:30. Blergh.

He told me I shouldn't use the word lobbying when requesting specific medical care.
He objected to your word choice? WTF? Did he offer a word he preferred?
RIP, Mike Wallace.

I thought applesauce would just become apple cider rather than going bad?
My Easter wake-up call was the building's pull-down fire alarm being set off at 8:30 (and still currently ringing, of course with anyone who knows how to shut it off unavailable on the holiday). Turns out I didn't pick the best possible night to stay up until 4 a.m. drawing after all. At least now we know we can't depend on the fire department for timely response despite being like 5 blocks away.

I have to admit, he didn't get a chance. Once he expressed his opinion that I don't get a vote in how I am treated, I explained to him that I'm just parrotting back what my specialists--specialists in two facets of my issues (migraine and pain) and specialists in me--suggest. I am totally not pulling these things out of thin air becaues all the cool kids are doing it, or anything.
So, there was that.

Nope, it can grow fuzz. But I have no idea how long that takes myself. I never remember to plan around it. Turning out that way usually takes me by surprise.
