Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

I don't like pain. There, I said it.

I don't like pain either. and I have no compulsion about rounding up when I have to talk to a doctor about it.

I'm now looking for flights to New York. I'll be flying out there the Sunday before VividCon and having meetings Monday through Wednesday. Then I'll probably fly back Thursday morning and run home to do a load of laundry, then pack my suitcase again and go back near the airport for the convention.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I have a questions for the buffistas about something I need to figure out. Discussion of eggs (chicken kinds, not women things) to follow:

There have been a couple of times when I have been in a restaurant and gotten completely nauseated eating an omelette. I had an omelette yesterday, no problem.

I bit into a crêpe today and after one bite, I was like "oh hell no." I couldn't even truck eating any more of that. Both had avocados, cheese, and eggs, but today's had spinach. I can't imagine that the addition of spinach would have made this unpalatable. but? I eat spinach in salads no problem.

One thing that I don't like is in scrambled eggs when the kitchens don't clean grills properly and I have left over WTF taste in my eggs. I'm thinking this is what happened, but I'm not sure.

Any comments and suggestions would be appreciated. I left the restaurant and went to get 2 tacos, but I feel like I threw $$ out because I didn't eat that at all.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I don't even know.

Y'ever looked for something on and off (but anxiously throughout) for hours, and then just looked down at your feet, moved something aside, and found it?

Good lord, I'm dumb today.

Oh, yeah, getting my acne cysts injected when I was a teenager? That was like an 8 on the scale.

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

Probably the worst pain I ever had was when I got thrown from a horse and broke my arm hitting the ground. Snapped my right arm in half backwards, just below the elbow. It never did heal right; the bone still shows up crooked on X-rays. I am certain I've never had any pain near as bad as what some of us have gone through/are going through, though.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

You guys, I've never had any bad pain at all. Unless I'm repressing something, but I really think no. The only time I've gone to the hospital for myself as an adult was a mistake when I had the vertigo.

le n, eggs in restaurants are often reconstituted from powdered eggs, and they taste awful to me. I can always tell. That's why I usually order fried eggs even though they're not my preference: they have to use real whole eggs for fried! I don't know if that's what you're tasting, though.

I do locals for dental. Then I again never had dental (including several root canals and an abscressed tooth) that was bad as my routine back pain when not taking Tramadol. So maybe the 7 I'm driving with is a real 7. But who knows?
