Because books.

Except for the part where I had been taking the maximum prescribed dose of percocet around the clock for 6 weeks and then stopped abruptly, kicking my junkie ass into withdrawal.

For whatever reason, he is loath to take an aspirin usually. So he hadn't been taking anything prior to surgery. No idea how I'm related to him.

It wasn't fun fuzzy like after a few glasses of wine, it was like the feeling you have with a fairly high fever from a flu. Not something I'd want to seek out.

So he hadn't been taking anything prior to surgery.

Which means no withdrawal, which is a good thing in my book!

No idea how I'm related to him.

Man, no kidding. I am ALL ABOUT painkillers.

Like I said, I already called dibs on any leftovers.

The only drawback of opiates for me is itching. Otherwise, they work just fine, thanks. Very pleasant. And initially less sleepy than with anything herbal.

Me too!

And initially less sleepy than with anything herbal.

Opiates kind of string me out and make me jittery, rather than sleepy, 99% of the time. Weird as hell.

They make me happy and energetic and *really* talkative at first.

Wow, I sound like a junkie, don't I? But this is why I've never tried other drugs I suspect I would like too much.

It's also why Teppy and I should probably not be put in charge of the pharmacy on Buffista Island, clearly.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

brenda: [link] look for "Antitumor activity" about halfway down. Looks like preclinical studies only, so, interpret that as you see fit, I guess.

Is anyone aware of weed being used to slow the growth of cancer?

There are a few mouse and in vitro studies [link] that indicate antitumor effects.

Opiates had more of a fun factor for me when I was taking them less often.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I used to worry about that until on day four of post-surgery vicodin I was practically crying from being so stupid.
