And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

K-Bug is certain that they are bed bugs. But she is the only one being eaten

Unless you are allergic to bed bugs (like I am, YAY) the bites are completely undetectable.

When we had bedbugs in our first apt, I was covered head to toe in red welty bite marks and DH wasn't even itchy.

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

Home nurse just left. Apparently it only takes thirty minutes to get my whole life health story, including "claims of negative reaction to medication" and "why would a home nurse give me dosages the ER balks at?" I figured I'd get everything out there now, instead of letting her find stuff out and react to it where she couldn't ask me questions right away.

Thing is, though, it gave me a headache.

I should be hearing from her in a week or more.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Did she give you any sense of the workability of a home nurse and the treatment you need?

I have relocated to Starbucks. K-Bug wrote a note to the Pest Control guys, so hopefully that will get resolved without me. I just couldn't handle the blowers any more. If I could afford it, I'd book a hotel for tonoight if the blowers are still there this evening. More likely I'll double up on my Ativan and hope that knocks me out.

What?

I hope the librarians among us don't run into this gambit.

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

As random as your treatment seems to be, ita !, I am hoping you can get care at home because if they authorize it at the actual dosage and pace that your doctor ordered, it might have a better chance of being carried out correctly.

When my washer lost it's mind and flooded my place (and, sadly, the walls below me in PDX), the blowers were awful. I mean, very needed and pretty efficient but oh that noise and it was constant.

I wish I could just take today off and crawl into a cave. I don't want to go home until I have to. I'm hoping when they check on the blowers today, they will discover that the walls are already dry enough. They said 48 hours though....which just makes me want to cry.

My hair is WILD right now. It's what happens when you go back to bed during the day with a cat who likes to sleep on it. Pumpkin wraps herself around my head and tugs out hanks to rest her face on, and wrap her paws.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Pumpkin wraps herself around my head and tugs out hanks to rest her face on, and wrap her paws.

Wow, that sounds so cute!

Probably sounds less cute to you, though.

When I was in college, I once woke up with the feeling I couldn't breathe. Turns out my roommate's 20 lb longhair cat was sleeping on my face.

sarameg - that does sound cute and yet uncomfortable. . . at least Pumpkin isn't eating your hair.

She's so small (and gentle about it) it's not uncomfortable. Nothing like Loki's assaults on my hair post-aveda product.
