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

Ann, that's a ferret.

Feel better, Hil. And if it helps, I have a story.

The professor for an 8:00 class called the TA (me) to say that he'd be in class the next day despite record cold weather and patches of ice on the roads. So when he didn't show up, all I could tell the students was that he told me he would be there. At 8:15, I let the class go, mainly because students were already leaving.

As I see it, you're ahead of my professor. Because you didn't make a point of telling someone that you'd be in class today.

I adore all you motherfuckers so much -- PMM.

That course co-ordinator sounds like a very good person.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Garbage family has a U-Haul and is moving shit out of the house across the street. Words don't exist to express how happy I am about this. I wish they would load the U-Haul faster and GTFO.

I'm glad you don't have to stress about them anymore, Steph.

Steph, I could use your pharmcological knowledge. Do you know enough about the differences between Lexapro and Celexa to offer odds that if I have insomnia and excessive sweating with Lexapro, that Celexa would do the same to me? I'm having leg cramps with the Effexor. My primary care NP says that if I want to try Celexa, OK, but other than that, it's time for me to have a proper psychiatry consult.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Not Steph, but I take Celexa and have excessive sweating and insomnia. I actually reported excessive sweating before it was an official side effect, in the late 90's. But everyone's bodies are different, so I am just one data point. I have stayed with the Celexa despite it, and the sweating at least has gotten a lot better and I have the kind of job where being an insomniac means I can do a lot of work in the middle of the night, and then come in late (which you do not)

Sorry, Andi -- I went to bed early last night. Lexapro is pharmacologically very similar to Celexa (Celexa has 2 parts, called R-citalopram and S-citalopram, and Lexapro only has 1 part, the S-citalopram). Since they're similar, you might have problems with Celexa. But you also might not, because people's bodies and how they metabolize drugs are just plain weird.

It is so damn frustrating to try to find an antidepressant that works and has no side effects (or tolerable side effects).

Thanks, Steph and Sophia. I'm leaning toward the psychiatry consult.

Psychiatry consult scheduled for Monday. Like, this Monday. Oh, the wonders of telemedecine. Incidentally, I now have a coupon code for ten dollars off a visit with doctorondemand.com to give away, if anyone can make use of it.

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

Thank you for the warning! Is it a giant spider sent to terrify a neighbor girl? That's the scene that's in the comic.
