Thanks, Zen. Is there any specific active ingredient that seems better than others?

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.

Feel better, WS.
You are my hero.
If I were truer to my Italian-American heritage, I would have a whole second kitchen in the basement, but the second fridge really does come in handy, especially the freezer part. It actually came with the house. It's a zillion years old but still running. My guess is it will run longer than the new, noisy one in our kitchen.
I went for a bra fitting today for nursing bras. It took forever and the size is much bigger than I could have imagined, so I'm glad I didn't try to guesstimate it.

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

I use Afrin. That's what my doctor recommended specifically. I don't know about any other version.

We have baby classes all day tomorrow, and I'm so tired today. Hopefully I'll find some energy tomorrow.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I use Nasonex nasal spray, and it helps a whole lot.

Nasonex is a corticosteroid, though. As is Nasacort, which I also use, but those are for every-day use for best results. Afrin is used as needed.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Yeah, Afrin is nuclear bomb, my head is killing me and I need to breathe NOW motherfucker medicine.

I was advised not to use nasonex during my pregnancy but normally I can't live without it.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
I ended up having a pretty extended back and forth with my cousin Timmy, and it went much better than I could have expected. Totally civil, and he's not as hard core as I thought. And I'm glad I finally spoke up, after biting my tongue for decades. And I'm super double glad that a good friend from college is a Civil War historian with a PhD who will answer questions in a heartbeat on Messenger.
Now I have to type up some kind of memory about my grandmother* for her memorial tomorrow, at which I'm not going to be present. I'm not really sad - she was 99 and died peacefully. Mostly sad for my dad and aunt, a bit wistful because she was the last of my grandparents and the one I was closest to. But I am procrastinating on doing this (in my defense, I am kind of pre-migraine) and I have run out of time. Blah.
