It looks like a faded old Kodachrome photograph out there, there's so much smoke in the air.
Haven't you killed me enough for one day?

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
I'd like to rename 'painkillers.' Because mostly they just knock it down a little. Either 'pain reducers' or something that really eliminates pain.
On the advice of my PCP, I take 1000mg acetaminophen and 400mg ibuprofen together, as needed, and that dosage is usually enough to knock things down to manageable, and frequently does eliminate pain for the rest of the day. I rarely have to resort to that more than maybe twice a week.
The other day things were so bad the first dose did nothing, and I took another dose four hours later, something I never do. I rarely need a second dose in a day. The second dose backed things off to functional, but by late evening I really needed another dose just to be able to sleep.
I don't know if it was the barometric changes of Florence's organizing or what, but I'd really like to avoid more days like that.
Body chemistry being what it is, most opioids (that is a damn funny word to spell) don't do all that for my pain, they just make me not function well enough to care very much.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
I've taken Percoset once, after having two wisdom teeth removed. I remember sleeping a lot. When I sprained my ankle, I got extra-strength ibuprofen. (800 mg, I think.)

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Pain appeasers?

I have made rice krispy treats, lemon bars, and Chex mix, for tomorrow's adventures. But my cramps are still bothering me so I can't decide if I really want to jump up and shower so I can go to dancing. I'm thinking not, but then again it would probably be good for me. But cramps. And tired. And having to get dressed in real clothes...yeah, that's a no.

laura - YAY for your son!
NC weather, and MA explosions are scary.
NY elections turned out not to be that close at all. Looks like many if not all of the IDC get ousted from the Senate, so that is good.
Look at the post I did not post yesterday. -
