Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

After ducking me all day Friday, the woman at the doctor's office is trying to get me in today for the steroid shot that will hopefully help alleviate my pain. Cross your fingers.

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.

Goid luck, Dana!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Fingers crossed, Dana!

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

Good luck, Dana!

Ugh, msbelle, I'm sorry. That bites.

Appt this afternoon. Praise Jesus. It may not work great, and it may not work immediately, but at least it's something.

The woman cheerily said that I've almost met my out of pocket max for the year. Sigh. I mean, yes, it is good, but it's only May.

I've heard that it can really help, so fingers crossed that it does. I'm glad they can get you in this afternoon!

Because books.

Fingers crossed for pain relief, Dana. An appointment is at least the first step.

Oh, msbelle. Stomach bugs are the very worst.

On Say Yes to the Dress Atlanta, they refer to the process of putting a veil and other accessories on a bride as "jacking up."

"We're going to jack her up!"

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

The woman cheerily said that I've almost met my out of pocket max for the year. Sigh. I mean, yes, it is good, but it's only May.

That is good, for if there's further treatment, right? Work that system!

Speaking of systems, I hope yours is better today, msbelle, and that you don't have to be at work for too long.

That is not what I would expect that to mean. ETA: "jack up"
