Spike's Bitches 49: As usual, I'm here to help you, and I... are you naked under there?

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

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.

I tried hydrocortisone cream to soothe the reaction from the antifungal cream. It didn't seem to help much. Neither did benedryl cream.

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

WS, you must be ready to rip your face off at this point. I'm sorry! Is the antibiotic working at all?

Yes, I think it is. It's just a smidge smaller, and more pinkish than reddish.

I ordered garlic, oil of oregano, and olive leaf extract supplements to work against any systemic candida issues, along with a new toothbrush and sls-free toothpaste.

We toured the JCC today and the school there is awesome, as are the other facilities like the gym and pool. We have to read through all the materials they gave us and figure out how we're going to pay for it, but we're definitely leaning toward sending ltc there.

Our wings are not tired.

Excellent news, sj. It is good to hear the facility and people were nice.

Lips~ma!

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I'm glad the meds are helping, WindSparrow. I'm taking Florastor probiotics to help keep C diff. at bay. I've read that the main component, Saccharomyces boulardii, is useful against candida, too. Might be worth a shot.

I'm glad the JCC is looking like a good option, sj.

I'm working from home today, which is lovely. It's a sunny day, but not too hot. All my apartment windows are open, and I can hear the cat snoring on the sofa.

My 40th birthday celebration is officially starting one month early next Saturday with Hedwig and the Angry Inch and dinner at one of the restaurants in Eataly Boston!

Calli, I was about to tell you I have probiotics on hand, but when I went to check what strains were in there, I saw the experation date was in 2013... time for new ones. Thanks for the rec.

sj, I'm glad the JCC looks promising.
