Maria, that's awful. I'm glad you're not giving in to them.
We're headed home from mom's. Meanwhile, it sounds like she and stepdad are having a wonderful time in Italy.
Yeah, I could do that, but I'm paralyzed with not caring very much.

[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.

The answer they deserve, Maria, is "I'm sorry, but you've mistaken me for someone who gives a shit."
I've had a week and two days of radiation to my hips, and the common side effect of completely screwing the gastrointestinal system hit me Thursday. (One result: clogged toilet.) I think the alien baby is about to emerge, and I'm looking forward to it. Also, if there's an uptick in global warming, blame me.
ION, I've come to the conclusion that Mousehunt was a documentary.

{{{Ginger}}} I hope you get some relief soon. Do you have plenty of bland food in the house?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Ugh Ginger, what a bummer.

Not enough. I need to get things like bananas and applesauce, apparently.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Christ, Ginger. I hope it abates soon. Feel better, as much as you can.

Cream of Wheat? I've been making it with maple syrup and cinnamon and it's delicious.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Oh, Ginger. I hope you feel better soon.
Ugh, one of my friends here is preggers and is asking for advice on whether she should follow the doctor's recommendation and get a flu shot and a TDAP booster. Here was the first response:
I'm not a mom but I say no way!!! If people say not to dye your hair while pregnant or eat sushi why would you put a virus in your body while growing a baby? Doesn't seem right to me.

Thankfully I'm not the only one talking sense, and I linked the relevent CDC pages as well as that article from the NYT about the study showing that babies usually get infected by adults in the household.
eta here's another prize-winning comment:
And the best antibodies ever are in breast milk, which I got the idea you were planning on breast feeding anyway. I don't think antibodies from a vaccine could even compare to the ones found in breast milk.
