Wesley: Illyria can be...difficult. Testing her might be hard without getting someone seriously hurt. Angel: We'll make Spike do it. Wesley: Good.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Seriously, are you allergic to your house, Hil?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

I don't think so. At least, no more allergic than I am to everything else in the world. I spent the whole day at the office, and barely had five minutes without coughing there.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Vinho verde is delicious. Trader joes usually has it?

Yeah, but they're like fifteen minutes away! wine whine

I don't care what the weather is. I just want the wine I want!

Oh, hey -- who said, take blood pressure readings in the morning before getting out of bed? I did that, and it was 116/70 with a pulse rate of 72. It's never been measured that low! I'm pleased. So, thanks for the tip!

Also, I really do need to find a different doctor. If he's going to freak out and throw serious, harsh medications at moderately elevated BP, surely he should not be relying solely on readings taken in his office, after lunch, middle of a work day, when I'm surely stressed, and never repeating the reading. The research I've just done indicates this is not the optimal way to get a true BP reading.

Zen, Also, if I am getting my BP checked, I make sure I don't have any caffeine beforehand. It seems to make a difference.

I used my inhaler (again) and took some Sudafed, and I'm coughing a bit less now. I'm flying to Boston tomorrow for Passover, and I'm hoping I'll be OK on the plane.

Ugh. Hotel gym is closed and I really don't want to wander the streets here in skimpy gym clothes.

But in good news, while texting with my roommate (one or the other of us has been gone for the last several weeks) she said she loves living with me and wanted to check if she could renew her lease this summer or if she should look for another place. I told her she's great and I'd love to keep living with her! Yay.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Oh, hey -- who said, take blood pressure readings in the morning before getting out of bed?

Wait, what? Maybe I need to do that.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

The thought of sj's pregnancy belly made me smile.

Healing~ma to Askye and Hil and whoever else needs it.

meara, on the opposite side of things, I just had to ask one of my roommates to move out. It did not go well. As long as he goes.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I tried the TJ's vinho verde after people here were raving about it here last summer and went back and bought two cases for the house. At $5 a bottle it can't be beat.
