[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.

Always Anti-fascist!

Right. Of course. Not least because I have people on my page who would think my Coke habit is as serious as, well, a coke habit.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I wouldn't open up a question like that on facebook, but I'd probably ask it here, which is completely different to me.

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.

Oh, heck yeah. If a quick look at Webmd and Mayo got me no reassurances that my doctor was advising me correctly, I would bring it to the Hivemind. But sadly, not everyone has a reliable Hivemind like we do here.

WS, I agree completely, and I feel bad for them. Which is why I said I wouldn't post it on facebook.

Speaking of medical stuff, my fertility drugs came in the mail yesterday wit their very own sharps hazardous waste container. Which makes sense, but it still more than a little disconcerting.

That's big thing, sj. Lots of ~ma for you.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

On the trusting the doctor front, I was referring specifically to my OB, who I trusted completely. If she told me I should do it, I did it. I asked questions, of course, but I always followed her advice and recommendations.

{{{sj}}} The fertility stuff seems crazy and scary at first, but it's wild how quickly you adjust to it. I used to hate shots/needles but after going through all the fertility stuff I did? NBD at all to me now. If you have to do the progesterone in oil shots, I found it helpful to ice the area before the shot, and apply heat and massage after. Oh and hold the syringe like a dart - I remember DW having to do that and it made it easier. Sorry if it's TMI. Wishing you success, friend! I'm here if you have any questions I might be able to answer.

Thanks. Not TMI, and I really appreciate the advice. The shot is Ovidrel. And I'm much less worried about the needle then TCG is.

I just called to book everything. I'm really wishing my mother wasn't in Italy right now.

And I killed the thread. Sorry!

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

sj, best of luck and much ~ma!
