We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Thrive to spite them

I have a question about peri menopause and if anyone else experienced something similar to what I have (white fonted so anyone who wants to skip this can)

did anyone notice a severe drop off of their sex drive? I lost mine around October and I know I should talk to the doctor about this but I'm not sure what options are. This is really frustrating and I wasn't sure if this is normal. It wasn't like a gradual loss, or it didn't feel like it. It was more like I realized I both was more difficult to get into things in the moment and also I just am not really wanting sex

Oh! I did start taking the Vitamin B and the Black CObash and that seems to be helping

Very common situation, askye. eta: some women get a surge of interest after menopause because of the exciting no concern about birth control thing, but mostly it is the opposite direction.

And as suddenly as well? I mean I feel like it went from normal to just gone.

I would think it would be a gradual process. Just guessing really.

That's what I was thinking so I 'm going to talk to the doctor because I'm feeling rather asexual right now and I never have before even when I was depressed so that's bothersome

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

askye, I also suggest talking to your doctor about it. It shouldn't just turn off like someone threw a switch.

In me news, the last few days I've been feeling more energetic than I have in a couple years. My creativity and engagement with the world is coming back. So either the increased dose of Effexor is finally kicking in, or these new vitamins are the shiznit.

I went to work. Everyone was cool and happy I was ok. Turns out both of us on shoes called out Monday. However I made the mistake of doing to much and got super dizzy and nauseous and came home.

I'm supposed to see M tomorrow but I don't know.

I'll probably call the dr on Monday after I have my schedule.

Graargh. My new headache specialist wants me to give up artificial sweeteners. My Coke Zero! No take my Coke Zero!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Coke Zero always gives me a headache.

She's like, you could try Sprite or ginger ale? Well, yes, but the point of the diet soda was to avoid all of the sugar, since that's also bad for me.

Apparently I'm supposed to drink "water" like some hippie.
