Dentists have said that teeth-grinding is way up this year. Can't imagine why.
Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

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.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Surely it's 4 out 5 dentists agree that teeth-grinding is way up?

What is even happening?
askye, that's a long time to deal with an untreated UTI. Push fluids, particularly cranberry juice. I found cranberry tablets helpful, too. [link]
I hope you feel better, and that you find a way to get treated sooner.

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.
Hello new board!
Hey, askye, I hope you get relief for your UTI soon. Dental anxiety and tactile defensiveness are no joke, either.
Laura, I'm glad you opted for safety.

Wind Sparrow! I’m so glad to see your pixels here! I have missed you!

Our wings are not tired.
WindSparrow! Hello love, I think of you often and see you on that other inferior place, but I have missed you here. I do hope you are well. Stick around. Lots of comfy chairs in this new place.

Thrive to spite them
I checked the CVS ehealth website and I have a prescription sent to cvs. Don't know why I didn't get a phone call, text or email but I'll pick it up on my way to work and start taking it.
Gotta love technology.
I also had started taking the D mannose supplements I have and should be taking every day but got lazy about. D Mannose is the sugar in cranberry that makes it work against uti. I don't take cranberry supplements or drink the juice anymore because it is too irritating and ends up triggering the painful bladder syndrome symptoms.
I miss cranberry juice sometimes it's what I drank instead of orange juice when I was younger.
I also realized when I'm running around pulling items at work I don't drink enough because the travel tumbler I use at work isn't spill proof so I don't take it with me. When I'm at cvs I'll get another one.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
askye, I started taking oregano oil pills to help with the uti's, and I think it is helping, fwiw.
WS! Hi!

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Hey, Windsparrow!
Askye, I can't do straight juice of any kind--too much fructose, too much acid. I cut it half and half with seltzer or club soda. Bonus: fizzy flavored drink! If I want the benefits of a full-strength dose of juice I drink twice as much. Other bonus: drinking more liquid! Win-win.
