It's entirely likely that my mother cleans the bamboo floor with whatever, when it's supposed to be specially treated. Who knows!
A man walks down the street in that hat, people know he's not afraid of anything.

Facebook tells me that the last student worker I hired at the Looniversity got married in the chapel there today. He's an infant! He was only 17 when I hired him! (Okay, that was in the fall of 2007, but still! He's marrying his college sweetheart, so despite only being 24 they've been together 6 years already.)

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
I can't wait to tell my doctor that the diuretic worked in exactly the opposite way it was supposed to.
We should start a club. You know how steroids are supposed to decrease inflammation/other signs of an allergic reaction? Yeah, I'm now allergic to that decreasing-dose Medrol dose pak (where you take 5 pills the first day, 4 the second, etc.). It give me hives. WHICH STEROIDS ARE SUPPOSED TO STOP.
So now I have to keep a very close eye on what happens if/when I take other steroids, like prednisone.
But -- yeah. With you on the counterintuitive reaction. (Although that's why Ritalin works for people with ADD -- it's speed to people who don't have ADD, but it has the opposite effect on people *with* ADD. #themoreyouknow)

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
We should start a club.
The Idiopathic Reactions Club. My doctor says "idiopathic" means the doctors are idiots who don't know how it works yet. (He said it, not me!)
edited to include the word "how". Now it makes more sense.

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

I'm one of those people that gets hopped up on benadryl. Any more than 50mg oral and I'm a twitching nutcase. IV I'm okay with, though.
Not sure what that's about.

My coworker has bamboo flooring in the kitchen and does not recommend it for high traffic areas.

Huh. Pity.
Thanks for the tip!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Happy Birthday, shrift!
