But would you try steam? I have no idea the actual logistics of this. It does seem like heating pads or even a nice hot tub would warm the innards well enough.
Well, if we followed the recipe...should be cake. A demon-violence-free-zone cake.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.
Yeah, I'm thinking, I'd rather try a nice hot bath with various configurations of herbal remedies - tea taken internally or in the bath water, than risk steam burns,
ION, Spooooon!

Steam?
Shoot, if I'm going to snap and go completely bugfuck insane I'm going to grab a knife and finally start stabbing myself in the abdomen - I'm not waiting around for something to boil.

eta: Um. Not to put too fine a point in it, my 'feeling the same' here was in response to Windsparrow's comment.
I feel the same. I love a good hot water bottle and, frankly, am resisting reading anything about this steaming process. Don' wanna know.
My fancy schmancy teas (of which, I hope ita would approve...lo, how I wish I could ask her about temperatures...) are keeping me pretty relaxed and invigorated.

I have comments but I'm mostly um Nope nopenope to steam.
I'm home early from work. I cut my finger open on a cardboard box, which wasn't fun. And made it for awhile until I started getting hot (no one else was) and started having trouble sentencing.
Which is how I described it to my supervisor. "Um, so I need to go. I'm not...you know.. I'm hot and I had trouble with the ...thing with the customer (transaction) because ....I'm having trouble sentencing. Talking. long sentences."
Which at that point he let me go. I left my boots at work (wore my work shoes), dropped my keys at work. Then at home walked into the drainage ditch trying to get to the house. (it's full of snow I thought it was solid ground).
I'm calling the doctor on Monday. This spacey ness is stupid.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Definitely doctor time again, askye.
Second best are those low-heat pads you can wear under your clothes for eight hours at a stretch.
I prefer the ones that stick to skin instead of clothes. They tend to stay better in the spots I need. And, amazingly, the adhesive doesn't irritate my skin.

I'm calling the doctor on monday and asking if they'll do a culture or smething because I've been on antibiotics since Tuesday I should be feeling better not worse.
And now I have part of a song stuck in my head. I can't remember the lyrics so I just remember the drum beat and I know that it was made into a Spike vid (later seasons dealing with him being re-soulled) I vaguely remember the choruse but not enough to be able to do a google search on it. It's not Nine Inch Nails but it kind of sounds like that. I had the album at one time but then ripped it and then the music got lost. And it's driving me crazy because I can't thin of the name of the song or the band.

And I found it after being really round about! Tool and I kept thinking the song was off an album Palabras but it was off Lateralus. My brain is fog today.
