Big Picture Lunar New Year - love the woman in the panda costume riding the commuter train.
I am SO creeped out by the guy with the snake in his face! I saw another picture of him elsewhere.
I said I'm sorry. I've made mistakes, but fear was never one of them.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

'Pope' relates to the Latin for father -- there's a reason he's called the Holy Father.
(I think it was in Barbara Hambly's Ancient Roman mystery where the 'detective' can't figure out why some of his suspects are referring to another suspect as 'Papa' until he realizes the reason for their secrecy is because they're early, persecuted, Christians.)

Also -- I got my car dug out! It only took a total of three hours, I think. I'm pretty damn worn out....

Theo, I just saw that school in S'ville is cancelled through Wednesday! That is bonkers. I mean, this is still New England, right? (Although I haven't been outside today, and acknowledge that it will get NASTY when it freezes after all the rain today.)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I like Barbara Hambly. I should read that book.

Hey, ita, did you see this about non-invasive brain nerve stimulation for migraine? [link] Apparently it helped....some people.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Jesse, that looks like the placement of the neurostim the beauty blog lady had. And it made me wonder--when my pain doc was saying they were testing stimulation for treating migraine--was that what he was talking about? Because that's not what he's planning on inserting. That would be a whole second setup. Misleading.
But curious.

Dude, my job. It can be fascinating, but I do get the weirdest phone calls.
Sigh.

If nothing else, it looks like that thing isn't inserted? And has no side effects? In short, it apparently worked for like 20 people, but still.
